We also missed the trunk in 7132, except for us on the Wonder not the Magic (I know, twin ships). And while the chance to sit outside on a sunny morning and eat some room service breakfast was better than nothing, the obscured view of the solid wall (you can look up at the hills of Nassau, but not see anything close w/o standing up) would not have made it worth the cost of the cat. 5 (we were bumped up from an 8, so it was a free sample of a verandah).
The detailed deck plans all have notches drawn into the walls dividing staterooms where the steamer trunks go. When you get to the back of the ship and the walls become straight, no notches, in the diagram, that means no trunk. Must be something structural that prevents the placement of the trunk. Wonder if those rooms might be slightly narrower and there would not be enough room to pass by the foot of the bed with the trunk? Just guessing.
Our Verandah in 7132 was almost regular size, but actually lost a few inches in depth at at the end adjoining 7134 as the curve of the hull began but the added depth of the verandah was not present as in room farther back where the hallway inside has actually veered in toward the center of the ship and the staterooms arrangement is not directly in line with the stateroom next to it. Which is an awkward way of saying, if you look at the deck plan you'll know what I was trying to say.
If it is the only verandah available and you want the chance to sit outside, then take it. If there is plexi available, I think the majority will tell you it would be preferable to go plexi. Especially on a weeklong Magic cruise, it hurts the storage situation to lose the trunk--were were on a 4 night wonder w/o formal clothes so it was no biggie.
But speaking of a weeklong Magic cruise--there are no BAD staterooms if that stateroom puts you on a 7 night vacation on the Magic, just degrees of what might be ever better than the other great choices. (I'd go interior except for DW's insistence on an oceanview big picture window).
