Loujul Posted December 17, 2018 #26 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Sailed on 12/6. Suite Cabin 9205. Shower is in the tub. When you shower the water runs along the top edge of the tub and then onto the floor. They sent maintenance to fix it and they put some kind of caulking tape under the glass. So after that, it leaked out a different place. So annoying. My DH thinks the tub is not level. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rosewood jo Posted December 17, 2018 Author #30 Share Posted December 17, 2018 Thought it would be interesting as a lot of people on cruise critic keep saying ship was marketing to millennials. Millennials of course are in an age range. Myself. A baby boomer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ipeeinthepool Posted December 17, 2018 #33 Share Posted December 17, 2018 We're not going on the Edge either. Too much negative about the IV cabins, we'll be going on the Silhouette instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a question, but with a moving ship, and the fact that the ship is not always "level" (side to side or fore and aft), how do you determine if a tub is level?

Either way, Millennials will soon catch on, or it's a bust. I personally think the Ritz Carlton Yacht will have better success, especially if Marriott does extensive research. Millennials want (A) fewer people, (B) more time to explore and experience the port, (C) authentic local cuisine. They aren't looking for IV cabins, side platforms, or mystical performance creatures.

Gorgeous,.. We are baby boomers..I think the desire for modern good taste is not defined by age categories!

That they didn't plan this for an age group. I'm the one that did the poll on age as it seemed the guests are making it about age, not the executives of celebrity.

What an amazing video you have produced. .Loved it all, including the music! Thanks for sharing it with us. It presents EDGE in a very positive and amazing light..looking forward to our EDGE cruise in a few weeks! From this video EDGE looks Classy and Cool ( boomer word = good)! We will probably enjoy Kaliedescope but skip Jewel Box and Hype,. EDEN , we might have loved with many yrs ago in the sixties,. but not our style anymore.We may take a peek for old times sake!

Interesting news! I think the current programming that includes drone racing , fee based tablet trivia, the Andromeda experience etc, seems geared to other than trad X cruisers..Maybe their children?? Many of the shows are too out there, all more of the same, and not interesting for many cruisers. Eden and Andromeda may fade as time goes on .More of a mix would be great! I am hopeful it will be changed or expanded so everyone can find activities they enjoy! I already see more events and activites I know we will enjoy... amazing spa, rooftop garden, quiet little niches in EDEN by day...Maybe the initial PR did not hit the mark, the CFO envisioned... OOPS....Just realized this is on a cabin with major issues thead so off topic.. I will try to find a better place to post my comments,,,,.as they are more general..

vtcruising Posted January 11, 2019 #44 Share Posted January 11, 2019 (edited) Hi Rosewood Jo - thanks for posting the video of your cruise and all the other info you have been sharing!! 🙂 I did want to encourage people to also post their Edge-Class Cabin Information Compilation sticky. It is at the top of the Cruise Critic Celebrity Forum, along with the S-Class and M-Class Cabin Information stickies. These 3 stickies will stay at the top of the Forum, so can always be easily found. The Edge Class Cabin Info thread has the format for posting, instructions and examples, searching instructions and an Edge resource tab, with links to info about dining, cabin stats, suite amenities, deck plans, etc. (tabs are below the spreadsheet). After you post your cabin information, I will enter it into the spreadsheet. I have been linking each post to the spreadsheet, since almost everyone has posted pictures (the links are in the last 3 columns). You can also post a link to photos (LouTheGlue has some great cabin photos). This information does not get sent to anyone, as someone wondered. It will sit at the top of the 1st page of the Cruise Critic Celebrity Forum for all of us to use to help choose an Edge-Class cabin (and X can follow, if they wish). A cabin that looks like it is in a great location may have a noisy crew closet next door or you may miss out on booking the cabin with the largest balcony in the location that you have chosen - these stickies have been so helpful for so many over the years. Someone asked about my motivation. It is that over the years I have always searched the M Class and S Class cabin info stickies to help choose a cabin. This is payback for those who took the time to develop those stickies. I started a thread last year on the Edge Sub-Forum to get input from everyone about what they wanted in their cabin info sticky. We discussed it for quite some time and gradually honed in on the categories on the spreadsheet. Thanks to all who helped develop the spreadsheet! The Edge-Class Cabin Info thread link is below (also can always find it at the top of the 1st page of the Celebrity Forum with the S and M Class stickies). A lot of interesting information has already been posted. It is not for questions and discussions because it would be too hard to wade through and find the actual cabin info posts. We can all continue our discussions about the cabins on threads like this one. Thanks to all who have posted!!🙂 Edited January 11, 2019 by vtcruising Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vtcruising Posted January 11, 2019 #45 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Thanks for posting your cabin info and pictures, rosewood jo! I edited what was placed in the spreadsheet a bit since you commented on the ship in general a couple of times and I'm trying to stick to only cabin info in the cabin spreadsheet (no matter how interesting the comments might be to everyone 🙂). People will still be able to read your comments by clicking on the link in the post link column to go back to the original post. I also linked your wonderful video. 😊 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silkroad Posted January 11, 2019 #46 Share Posted January 11, 2019 I enjoyed your video, rosewood jo (including the soundtrack). Thanks for sharing it with us. The first track sounded like Hiroshima, an old favorite of mine. The New Year’s Cruise looks like a lot of fun😁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johhnnyt Posted January 11, 2019 #47 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Had 6218 (ES) on December 16th sailing, well designed and organized. really liked the IV. Only downside was shelving space limited (two 16"x24"x8" shelves) and a 2'x2'x6' with plenty of hanging space but no shelving, had a lifeboat at about floor level, but straight out view was fine. Also had 9180 (SS2) super well designed, loved the tub/shower layout, Overabundance of storage. Was about 20' feet from MC, and even with balcony door open, you can hardly hear it when its being moved Complete review/pictures here https://boards.cruisecritic.com/topic/2618161-edge-review-december-16-23rd-2018/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think people assumed it was aimed at a younger demographic since they have eliminated all of the low tech things like the library, card room and focused so heavily on technology to run everything from getting into your cabin to controlling, lights TV and blinds in your cabin... laser maze, and other Club and to lesser degree the theater choices. The entertainment seems oriented to younger audience... although not really clear who they intended to target with Eden ...the experience seems to be modeled after a Heart, club in Ibiza Spain... known for clubbing and not exactly a mecca for the older set.... I think that while Celebrity might not have realize they were targeting a younger crowd... but they may have been channeling their inner child/young person in their decisions... check this video and tell me it doesn't resemble Eden. Dinner show at Heart in Ibiza Spain If you are thinking future... you almost have to aim for a younger audience.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe they thought the old time hippie retro would draw older folks ( nostalgia) and thec young ( to them it's brand new) . Who knows? That Heart Club show ,.....looks really out there! BTW we are off topic..This thread is EDGE CABINS WITH MAJOR ISSUES....hope we can get back on track... Edited January 13, 2019 by hcat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
