2017 Newmar reviews

We have owned our 2017 Ventana Ellie since 2018. We are the second owners never had any major issues problems or concerns. The rig travels perfectly down the highway with select steer and the diesel mileage is very acceptable for a rig this size. I would recommend this rig other than a Covid rig which goes from 2020 and on. It seems like the quality went down when Covid came around and that’s why you’re seeing a lot of bad reviews if you are from those years but anything prior to Covid their exceptional rigs. Show less

I've owned this model before and I must say it has more room inside than any other rv I've spent time in. Just open all four slides and there is more room than you will ever need in an RV It has all the basic luxurious of a large King Aire, Satellite, washer/dryer, large. refrigerator , King bed, eight kw generator and much more. It also has a 360hp Cummins diesel motor which has more than ample power to tow my Jeep Cherokee trailhawk. Its a perfect size RV because its roomy but still small enough to get into almost any state park. Another foot or two and they would not let you enter. Show less

I love this Rv. Everything is at your fingertips. So much storage. Use the fireplace for heat or ambiance. Entertain outside with the outdoor entertainment center. Night and day shades with the press of a button. Love Everything about this coach. Show less

Newmar builds a very high quality vehicle! The fit and finish on this RV is far above my previous 2 motorhomes (Coachman and Winnebago). Even after driving it for 7 years, the seams and all components are solid with no major maintenance or repair items. The F53 chassis with the 6.8 Triton V10 engine is extremely dependable. The ride and handling are much improved with a front and rear stabilizer and Sumo Springs. No more leaning and bouncing. I highly recommend this RV! Show less

I had a 2014 dutchstar that had upholstery furniture issues . Now I own a 2017 Dutch star and have the same problem the upholstery falls apart. It’s incredible that you spend $600,000 in a coach and I have to worry about the upholstery. They tell you that they’ll pay for half of the cost of replacing the fabric BUT only if you buy it through them at a double the normal cost. I’ll pull Street in this type of a coach should last you at least 10 years Show less

The Newmar Bay Star motorcoach is a great value. High-end materials and workmanship make this brand stand out among the others. Factory support is among the best in the industry. My next coach will definitely be a Newmar. Show less

We absolutely love our Dutch Star! The Comfort Steer makes it so easy to drive and the quality is top notch! We also love the emergency exit in the bathroom as well as the tag axle on the 40 footer. Show less

Perhaps the biggest obstacle for my husband and I was the fact that we are both quite tall. Therefore the queen bed was too small for us as was the dinette legroom. He loved driving the rig. Very comfortable. The storage was great. Show less

In your quest for a perfect coach I would rate the Newmar Essex one on the very top. Livability like a well appointed apartment. Driving like a luxury vehicle and very quiet. Towing, well, I towed a Jeep and really never knew I was towing a vehicle except when I looked in the camera screen and saw the Jeep. Quality was superb upon taking care of a few items the previous owner neglected. If you are seeking a coach for road travel this is it. Last, power is the ability to climb mountain roads in Colorado with a Jeep in tow and pass other RV's and trucks accelerating up hill. Show less

Absolutely a luxury and quality coach. Would love to keep the unit but can not due to wife's health. Traveled one major trip to Denver and found it is like driving a luxury auto. Has absolutely everything need to travel with extended stay. All components have been check and serviced. Show less
