I have traveled in my 2018 Forest River rPod 180 HRE for 4 years now. I bought it new. It's been an amazing little unit, easy to tow, fun to live in. Unfortunately, there was a recall on it to replace an axle. Forest River has been absolutely stellar about doing the recall work. Not only did they come and pick up my rPod on Vancouver Island to take it to the plant in Oregon for repairs, when I sent an email to enquire as to its status after 5 weeks, they responded almost immediately. And then the head service technician working on it phoned me with a detailed update. It's been an amazing littler rig and they've been amazing to deal with.

I have had my 2018 Rpod 180 since 2018. The frame on my Rpod was showing rust in the first year, the dealer wouldn't fix it under warranty. I had to go under it and painted the whole frame with a rust converter then painted it to prevent more rust damage. Apart from things like trim falling off, cabinet doors breaking and the bathroom door no longer closing, it was pretty good until last year. Last year, I noticed the driver's side wall appeared to be sinking. I contacted Forest River in October and was put on a list to have my rig returned to the factory for a new axle, and repairs to the frame and cabin that resulted. It's now mid-January, and still, no date has been given to me for the repairs to take place. There was some mention of them taking it in June, right when I would be using it, but nothing is written in stone yet.

We certainly like the floor plan which is why we picked the Forest River Mini-Lite... Several issues such as floor got spongy, replaced steps, furnace doesn't work properly, matress lumpy after 1 year, one of tanks dropped down and we had to have welded back on, front jack had to be replaced as it stopped working on our first trip, on/off switch to hot water tank doesn't work, spare tire exploded while mounted to back of camper (never been used), outside shower door doesn't open, sink in kitchen leaked and so on..... DO NOT buy this product esp because of the floor since it's made of the thinnest plywood and foam. It just doesn't hold up.

Floor was spongy after 2 years. Company uses foam for floor I'm assuming because of weight. On/off power switch on hot water heater stopped working so now have to alway turn tank off at the box. Tank sensors don't work half the time. Customer service at Camping World where we bought it was poor. Warranty stunk. Not well made and several things fell apart such as steps, tank supports, floor, furnace.

There is also Heaps of living space with room to add a prep table in the kitchen area, right in front of the huge window. Power levelers make things as easy as possible! The party patio is our favorite part, and causes many conversations with fellow campers. The power awning is another wonderful feature that makes this travel trailer EASY PEASY!

My wife and I purchased an Aframe hard side (A213HW) camper. We purchased it used from a dealership. Some of the positive things we found are the overall floor plan. We like the two single beds, lots of storage (could use more), and very easy to pull and setup. Once it's leveled, it only takes about 3 minutes to set up. Now for the only big problem we have. The actuator arm that lifts the top into position is a piece of junk. The design is totally wrong. If it rains, water is able to get into the gear and electrical housing. We are on our third arm in three years. Did I mention that we keep it in our garage when not in use. Luckily, I was able to redesign it as a backup. The manufacturer needs to spend some time and money to redesign it.
