2016 Forest River Class C reviews

Overall a nice rv. AC is a bit loud 15K/hp. Had a few minor issues typical of all brands of rv. Perfect for me and the wife. Levelers, full paint, v-10 engine, 6 speed tranny. Watch for the fake leather to peel. I replaced my theater seats with Thomas Payne cloth seats. Show less

Easy to drive, 24 ft RV is fully self-contained and easy to operate. It’s great on gas mileage and runs on diesel fuel. This unit is excellent for first-time RV’ers or experienced travelers. It fits in a standard parking space. It is a perfect size, allowed in all CA State Parks and all National Parks. Only 10-15 minutes to set up. Features cab seats that rotate to provide more seating. There is central heating, A/C, a stereo system, a TV entertainment system over the bunk bed, and a second TV in the bedroom. Show less

This RV is beautiful, and functional. Easy to drive, easy to back into a spot with backup and side cameras. It has all the special features that make camping easy. Plus the Thomas Payne Recliners are so comfortable! And the queen mattress in the bedroom is upgraded, a nice firm gel mattress! Show less

It is just the right size for 2 people. I like the extra storage above the cab vs a sleeping loft as we don't need the extra sleeping space. I love the extra large television. I like having a screened door. It is nice having the lavatory sink outside the bathroom so two people can get prepped at the same time. It is so easy to drive and maneuver through traffic. We tow a 4 door Sahara Jeep Limited with no problem at all.hings I don't like? I would like an indicator for traffic coming along side us. Can't think of any other things I would change about it.

omg every time i go somewhere something or things break. drawers flying open(tore up the cabinetry one time), fridge acts up, cap on the sewer outlet breaks and falls off, beauty rim flies off on the freeway( which are not reasonably available), one night we got locked in the coach because the door latch assembly broke inside, the leather seats are crumbling apart, i am now working on replacing stripped out mounting screws on passenger and drivers side entry door steps that were mounted unbelievably poor, the motor for the coach entry step, fuses on the water heater...... it goes on and on folks! it does drive like a dream though. gotta give it that. looses a marked amount of fuel mileage towing a 1200lb. boat. and what the hell is up with those emissions monitors mr. mercedes? took 3,000 miles for 1 monitor to turn on so i could get it smoged. THAT drove me outa my mind. Show less

DO NOT purchase a Forrest River product! We have a 2016 Forest River Forester 2401W motorhome which we purchased because of it's Mercedes chassis. We regrettably chose to disregard the numerous negative reviews of Forrest River products which have proven prophetic. Our MH has 6,465 miles and I found the Hellwig sway bar that F.R. so highly touts literally hanging from the rear axle housing by one bracket! Upon inspection and contacting Hellwig, I was informed that it was dangerously (per Hellwig) installed not even close to Hellway's specifications by F.R. The Hellway technician told me to NOT attempt replacing this sway bar send him pictures of all aspects and the remove it! I have actually found this exact type of build quality in almost every area of this M.H. which I would never expect in a unit in this price range. I would be glad to expound further on all of the issues requiring repair we have found which are far too numerous to include in this review. Our best, Phil and Kaisha Sulkosky Show less

The comfort and livability, as well as the transport of this RV has been top notch. It makes the journey as fun as reaching the destination, and offers all the comforts of home while traveling. One thing that sets the size of this RV apart, is how easy it is to drive and maneuver around. We didn't need to tow a smaller vehicle behind it, or rent a compact car once we got to our destination because we were able to go wherever we wanted in this vehicle. We chose to not have any slide-outs in this RV, as we've spoken with several friends who had gotten slide-outs and found that they were drafty and then would get stuck - leaving the owners stranded where they were until they could get somebody to come out and fix it. The 23' size of this vehicle has been perfect for the two of us, although it's still comfortable to feed 4 at the table and sleep 6. Show less

This 2016 has been a dream. No problems! Bought it used with 7200 miles. Gets great gas mileage and is very reliable. The mbs diesel gets approximately 16 miles to a gallon. Great for long RV trips. No issues to date. Stored in a garage. Has 20K miles. Everything works great! Show less

This motorhome has an excellent and spacious layout, even when the slide is closed it is completely liveable and comfortable with loads of space. Highly recommended for long stays or for families to enjoy. The length allows you to go anywhere! Show less
