2009 Winnebago Class C reviews

We have had 2 pull behinds, two 5'ers, a 40' Diesel pusher and now the Class C-- our last and our favorite. The Winnebago quality is what impressed us the most. Our rig was almost 10 years old when we bought it and it looked like new. Four years later it still looks like new. We get so many compliments on it. And the inside is just as sturdy. I am so impressed with how much Winnebago can fit into a defined space. At first I thought I could never go from a larger rig, but now I wouldn't go back! I can clean this thing in an hour or less. There is definitely some adapting to do if you are used to the larger footprint, but we added a screen tent plus we have the huge patio awning, so we expanded our footprint outdoors -- which is where we want to be when camping! The storage inside is really awesome -- at least for the two of us it has been fine. We added two storage ottomans but that's it. Hubby says he would like a bit more understorage, but that is one of the sacrifices we made. We tow a small SUV and all of the "clean" stuff that used to go under the rig simply goes in the back of the toad. We also realized how much useless stuff we were dragging along with us. My husband says it drives like a dream. And it is the first one I have ever felt totally comfortable driving. We tow with it and you don't even know anything is back there -- but you can see it with the rear monitor! And did I say it gets 15-16 mpg when towing!?! I don't even want to recall what our diesel pusher used to drink. We have had absolutely no issues with this rig other than expected wear and tear maintenance. No issues under the hood or in the living area. We have had several upgrades done (auto awning and larger AC unit since we live in the South) but that was all optional. We have always checked the National Highway Traffic Safety Institute (NHTSA) recall list before purchase any rig. This is the only one we have ever purchased that had experienced NO recalls. I don't mean recalls that had been taken care of before we bought it -- I mean NO recalls at all, ever. That says something to me. Some of the best things about it for me, since I do all the planning and navigating, is (1) I no longer have to plan detours around low clearances or fear backing that 40' bus down a mountain road! The 10'5" clearance gets us just about anywhere and U-turns are not an issue., nor are skinny/curvey roads. (2) I don't have to plan ahead for fuel stops since we can use regular gas and fit into about any filling station. (3) We love to stop at out of the way places on the spur of the moment; with our diesel pusher there were so many places we could not stop. With this rig, we can stop just about anywhere! No rig is perfect. Some would say the kitchen is small. Personally, I don't go camping to cook (especially not inside), so it is no problem for me at all. The dual sink, 3 gas burners and convection microwave are fine -- I usually use my Instant Pot and sometimes the electric grill outside IF and when I cook. The upfront entertainment area is great and there is also a small entertainment center (tv hookups/radio/speakers) outside. And although we have never used it, there is a wash station if you want to shower off beach sand -- or don't want to fill up the interior tank. I wouldn't suggest this rig for a large family for obvious reasons. But for a couple, single or small family it is really a great home away. (Sleeps 2 adults in queen bed and 2 children in blowup on LR floor). We have not actually had to use support and our rig was already out of warranty when we purchased. But since the site insisted we check something, we went along with 5 stars all the way! Show less

Very comfortable floor plan for two people on extended travel. From auto leveling to gas/electric furnace, AC and built in generator, this RV is easy even for the less experienced traveler. Black water tank can last over a week, but gray water tank is less than 3 days if you shower every day. Show less

Good layout for the living area. Having enough beds for 6 people so you don't have to convert the sofa and dinette is a plus. I like the big bathroom. Driving is comfortable, having power mirrors makes adjustments easy with multiple drivers. The cruise control does real well controlling the speed especially on down hills. Sure makes setting up easy with auto leveling jacks (first time I've had them). Show less

This Motorhome has been a dream to drive, can go anywhere. Winnebago has done this rig right with quality & thought thru out. All plumbing has been installed for ease of use and weather protection. Very comfortable living for multi-month trips. Age and health dictate this sale. Show less

This RV is a Dream to drive and can go anyplace. Winnebago built quality into this unit and the Sprinter/Mercedes combination is a winner. The Weingard TV Slimguard antenna is auto search and is plug & play for the DTV Genie receiver. HWH hydraulic leveling jacks make leveling a done deal. The solar pad keeps batteries up to snuff even in the shade. Bonus entertainment item "Lifetime Sirus" package. Show less

I have owned 3 Views two 24G's and this 24J this one is the best floorplan we have found for sharing space with others on trips with family and friends I have owned 3 Views two 24G's and this 24J this one is the best floorplan we have found for sharing space with others on trips with family and friends Show less

i have loved this RV for it's compact ease of use. I have traveled in it extensively by myself and with another person. I have found it to be quite comfortable. This has a bump out couch with overhead storage across from the dinette. I bought baskets for the overhead storage that turned out to be very efficient use. the refrigerator and freezer have plenty of room i came back from the store with bags of groceries and was always able to fit things in.The cook top has 3 burners and an overhead vent below the upper convection oven microwave combination. the bathroom is adequate the best part being a stand alone shower. There is an overhead power vent in the bathroom along with another roof vent in the front area for expelling heat or looking at the stars. I installed a electrical surge protector along with a pressure regulator for the water. I also installed a braking system system for pulling a trailer. I pulled a car a Chevy Equinox with great success. There are two stereo systems one in the cab and the other above the dinette that does DVD as well. All the storage works well and is enough space for clothing and extras. The motor home has a Mercedes Benz diesel on a sprinter chassis. This has got to be one of the best combinations on the road Mercedes and Winnebago. Show less

Quality, solid and friendly............Drives great and easy and safe to drive. Just no problems at all. Excellent gas mileage at around 11 mpg. Does well in mountains and the v10 engine (6.8L) is powerful and very smooth and quite. The electronics work perfect and we love the surround sound speakers. Show less

This is an excellent unit with plenty of power, comfort, and easy on fuel @ 16 miles per gal. I found it easy on the pocketbook. I would like to keep it, however my wife and I being in our late 70's and with health issues decided to sell. Show less
