2017page=2 Forest River Georgetown XL reviews

I bought my 2017 Berkshire new in 2017. There were a couple warranty items that were taken care under warranty without any problem. The Forest River diesel division is very good and responsive but like many RV the dealer network is only interested in making a sale. Freightliner Oasis have very nice facilities and will do a better job than regular heavy trucks shops.. I do all the mechanical maintenance myself, that way I am sure it is done with care. I am very happy with the engine transmission combo, (Cummins ISL 9 380 hp and Allison MH 30) and they have been trouble free. I am pulling a 5000lbs 2017 Ford Explorer Platinum AWD and over the 32,500 miles I have driven, I have averaged 9.6 mpg with a high of 11.2 mpg with a solid tail wind.. Show less

Dependable, comfortable, enjoyable, and worth the money! Depending on what model you go with, you could select a beginner to advance models. I love mine and although I sold it through PopRVs (...and I highly recommend doing that) I would consider another in the future. Show less

We brought our Rv here and from the minute it was there we were lied to over and over again! It was on their lot for six months and they let people steal items and they themselves used my RV for parts for other RVs! They promise you the world, and give you nothing, they even cut each other’s throats to make a sale, They never had our interests and heart! When I left my RV there it was in perfect condition when I took it back there was at least 20 things wrong, every day I found something new wrong or broken! They even used the gas in my propane tanks while it was on their lot! Avoid this place at all cost, they have no dignity and are very unprofessional! Buyer or seller BEWARE!!!!! Show less

I have to say when I first purchased this unit I was impressed. Only to find out in less than 2 years the problems would start to surface. Started with the tile floor cracking and popping up. and minor issues no problem I could deal with.now less then 2 years on the unit and only 25,000 miles. the interior seats and color is peeling away, the cushions are collapsed, all the shades have broken from their mounting brackets, water heater leaking, the cabinet wouldn't stay closed. the main door handle breaks and locked me inside, Developed a roof leak around the front vent. and now the front slide is now broken. For a low mileage unit it has way too many issues. and I'm afraid I will not purchase another unit from Forest River,I just hopw this doesn't continue with this product. Show less

I love my rv but the help you get from Forest River is zero. I have a lense for my headlight that I need replaced. I have called Forest River 15 times, only 3 times was the phone answered. I was then redirected to someone else and each time I left a message to call back and I am still waiting...... almost 3 weeks later I am extremely frustrated. Show less

Follow up to original review. Quality continues to be a problem. Slide out wiring harness has a flexible shell. It is now going in for a 3rd replacement. Slide in/out 10 times before it happens again. What a POS. Never will Forest River earn my business again. They get you dazzled with the floor plan and it's all downhill from there. Show less

A great motorhome for long term stay! I have enjoyed this motorhome tremendously! 5 years motorhome snowbirds No problem pulling my jeep cherokee as if it was not there! No breakdowns no accidents Very easy to set up Show less

New 2016 purchase. Always covered. All interior leather crumbling apart. Contacted FR. Known problem for 2105-2016 coaches. Sent me new, same type covers, but my expense for labor to install. My 2nd new FR product. I believe they should pay labor to install on this 9,000 mile, well maintained unit. Great coach other than this issue which is horrible looking. Show less

My experience with the 2017 Georgetown LX, Has been a nightmare. We bought it brand new. Special ordered from the factory. Owned it for four or five months and started having leaks. Ceilings turned pink and purple. Water pouring down in all the rooms. It’s spent months in local repair shops. No one could fix it. Went back to the factory. Had to have all new roof new ceilings, was in the shop for about a year. It was still under warranty thank goodness. I would never buy a forest river product again.They knew the roof was too small for the unit and they patched it.Now it’s all over the Internet how many other people have had this nightmare with this motorhome. Shame shame shame on Forrest River. Now you worry about mold. Do not buy a forest river product Show less
