i love the rv but the support for bad work is nonexistent. the roof is under a 12 year warranty and after 5.5 years or lets say 6 years old the metal flashing under the roof has come undone, staples coming up thru the roofing. the metal flashing under the roofing is cutting the roof down both sides from the inside out. ive contacted forest river and NOT gotten a response and worked with my local dealer to get this fixed under the 12 year roof warranty based on the bad craftmanship and got DENIED there too. the roof is in perfect shape except for the flashing under the edges coming apart and cutting it from underneath as well as the staples starting to come up thru the membrane. had i have dragged it under a tree and caused damage i have no problem getting it repaired BUT when the damage is from lack of quality control i feel forest river should own up and fix this on their end and not ignore me or deny the claim at the local dealer when they have pictures and video. i understand that these things happen but the support ive gotten is nothing more than a slap in the face from forest river.

Absolutely loved owning this travel trailer. It worked great for our family of 5 and was easy to pull. No slides made it easy to work with and the layout worked great for us. The trailer had a tub that worked great for the little ones and a larger stove than some other options we looked at. The awning and outside speakers made it great for hanging out at as well.

We purchased this RV new in 2014 and just traded it in for a 2020 2516s. This camper served us very well for these 7 seasons. We never had any issues or had it fail us in any way. A good solid camper. Show less

Great Fifth Wheel Trailer, very roomy inside floor plan for a 32 foot trailer. Has opposing slide outs. Towed very nice down the road with my Ford F-250. Plenty of storage. Has a 15,000 btu ducted A/C. Angled entertainment center with surround sound very nice too. Show less

5 stars all around, I gave no stars on warranty and service as we purchased it pre-owned with no warranty, etc. It is a great value for the money and if I had it to do over again, I would not change a thing. Show less

This is a great couples camper with room for the grandkids or an extra adult.It is easy to tow. Plenty of room for week-long trips. It has a large refrigerator and plenty of storage the you don't typically find in a camper of this size! Show less

Forrest River is the best brand RV we have ever owned we have owned several and have been please with Forrest River it is made more solid and better construction. This rig pull straight and steady. The live ability is excellent there are more cabinets that usual in a rig this size. the living room is spacious with the flat screen and fire place it is very comfortable. Show less

Bought unit new 1n 2015. Floor plan is nice. Has 2nd entry door at rear of the unit not like on the side as most 5th wheels have.Dealer was responsible for many of the warrenty items we had. Dealer had unit for at least 2 weeks after we purchased it before we could take possession. Only 1/2 were done. My wife and I were able to fix most of the other items and a different dealer did what we couldn't. As for Forest River they were as helpfull as possible. They even extended our factory warrenty by an additional 6 months. My biggest dissapointment is with the materials used for all the woodwork. While the drawers are solid the facing of all cabinets, drawers and any other wood trim is a very thin vaneer over a pressed cardboard. If an area gets wet it swells. This also happens on all counter tops except the kitchen which is a resin composite.other problem occuring after 5 years of ownership is floor by ktichen area has become soft. Have checked for leaks and found none. Luckily I can repaire this with little effort. Still it's been a good unit to full time in. It just helps to be handy to maintain this unit. Show less
