Owning this rv has been a nightmare from beginning to end. We got a great price but had problems with water leaks everywhere and they just cant seem to find them all and get them fixed. Went to several dealerships same results. Compartment above the cab where the bed is leaked we had that fixed is continue to leak we've continued to have problems. Are back storage area on the passenger side has never sealed properly and we are constantly getting water in there. We were in a storm in New York which caused a problem with the roof which cause water damage in the back and they supposedly fix that. However we still are now getting water inside and that back corner and now they think it might be coming from the seal around the slide out. We consistently have water in many of the storage compartments and can't figure out exactly where it's coming from. The wall panel right next to the fridge I'm is completely boat out and no matter what they do cannot get it to stay put and I think that's probably from Western water damage. Opened up one of the storage compartments the other day and found mushrooms growing in the crease around the store inside of the storage area. And everything was all wet.

I bought this November 2017, it's been an amazing RV, I know everyone probably says that on these things, but it truly has. The power it has, the sleeping, comfort, bathroom, kitchen, and just everything about it has been beyond my expectations. I just had everything service and had new tires put on. I have however recently suffered a back injury which is not allowing me to enjoy it anymore like I used to or want to. I hope it treats the third owners as great as myself, and previous owners before me.

Used this RV for both long and short family trips for a family of four and sometimes 8. It drives great with plenty of power. The kitchen is functional though slightly cramped. We cooked a lot and baked a lot with many great meals cooked indoors. The AC, heater and refrigerator/freezer work great. This is a great first RV owner unit. Good for vacationing but probably not the best unit for primary residence.

The 2012 Freelander 21QB, actually 24' in length, is a great value for the money. It is a great option for two adults and up to two children. Although it technically sleeps six, that would be a bit crowded. In addition to the rear Queen bed, the dinette converts to a Full size bed (48" x 76"). The overcab bunk has a weight limit of 350 lbs. PROs: 1) The rear bed is 60" x 80", very spacious for an RV and so much more liveable than the "Short Queen" (60" x 76") that is so common in other models. An added bonus is that standard Queen-size sheets fit perfectly! 2) the fresh water holding tank is 50 gallons, lots bigger than most Class Cs and even some Class As. This means we stay out in remote areas longer without breaking camp. 3) The exterior "basement" storage is huge! Over 100 square feet! We can fit everything we need for a month-long trip in with no problem. Have not seen this much storage in other models. 4) It is very easy to drive and has a good turning radius. 5) The dinette is designed in a circular "lounge" style, which is great for watching TV and relaxing. See related Cons below. CONs: 1) The factory installed vents are cheap and flimsy. We immediately replaced ours with Fantastic Vents. 2) The window in the coach side entrance door (not the cab) is made of frosted glass, reducing driver visibility. We had ours replaced with clear safety glass and we added a shade for privacy when needed. 3) The table for the dinette is too big for the space. We took it out and just store it for when we might need to use it to convert the dinete into a bed. We use a large tv tray table for indoor dinners and we made our own insert to make the sofa more comfortable. 4) The wardrobe for hanging clothes has two rods that run from the exterior wall to the wardrobe door instead of a single rod running across the top of the wardrobe. A simple modification to make. I notice that Coachmen made this change to later models too. 5) Curved shower door on a track is irritating but functional. Coachmen changed this to a regular swinging door set on the diagonal in later models. Summary: with a few simple modifications, the 2012 Freelander 21QB is a great combination of compact size and desireable features! I would buy it again.
