We bought our 2019 Coachmen Catalina 243 RBS new. I have to tell you, it's been nothing but problems. First the air conditioner on the roof wasn't tightened down and when it rained, we had to put a bucket under it. The repair shop said they could almost turn it sideways, that's how loose it was. Second issue was rain dripping on us while we were sleeping. The seal in the front where the roof meets the metal needed to be caulked all over. I did that myself. This happened twice. Third, the switch on the power jack went out and I had to replace that. Fourth, the factory didn't caulk one side of the travel trailer. The dealership noticed that when we brought it in to have the air-conditioner tightened. Fifth, one day we noticed they didn't even bother to put trim where the floor and wall meet. They did it in some areas and not others. I would have to say that I am disappointed in the workmanship of this travel trailer. I would tell anyone that is considering buying any travel trailer or RV, to buy one that is a couple of years old. Otherwise it'll sit in the shop half the time getting repairs done.

Overall it is comfortable. Plenty of room to move around. Has one of the largest bedrooms in trailers. Easy to tow with our Dodge Ram 1500 with the 5.7L motor. There are three slide outs in this model. We have had leaks in all slides. This has caused the flooring at the interior corners of the coach to deteriorate and cause spongy floors. The slides have been the main issue with this coach. Forest River cannot seem to manufacture a decent seal for the slides. Shame on them. Another issue was the refrigerator. It is an all electric Everchill brand. It does not require propane to operate. This brand does not seem to be reliable. After the refrigerator was replaced for the third time, we finally got a refrigerator that works. The slide motors needed to be replaced. The hitch jack needed to be replaced, the electrical panel needed to be replaced. Awning vinyl is poor quality. Too much junk is used to manufacture these RVs. The parts are not reliable and the manufacture is charging too much for what you are buying. And value for the money? It stinks. Some of the defects were repaired under the warranty period. But the leaky slides and spongy floors were not because they appeared some time after the warranty period expired causing us to pay $$$$$.

Purchased July 2018, has leaked since first rain. Started in bunkroom slide floor. Wet all around corners and side wall. Then 12' dinette and love seat slide started samething. New roof added year later. What that has to do w/slides leaking I still have no idea, and continued to leak after. Bunk room floor started coming away from wall. Collapsing. Dealership pulled slide installed new floor & fixed leaking problem. Still leaked afterward. So far warranty was paying for everything until they weren't. Dealership service got snotty and screwed us over. It was same problem over & over. Stay away from Larry's RV in Illinois. They were great until they weren't. Now while all this was happening, during winter we would get ice and condensation on walls in both slides. Inside. Dehumidifier helps but we still have to be vigilant. That was life for 4yrs. It was only after summer of 2022 that we finally saw relief w/leaking slides. A RV service tech in Indiana tore off rubber seal all around our slides. And until recently, neither slides leaked. The bunkroom still has not. Our 12' dinette and LR slide has started to sag in center. Water has started to leak through our light fixture over dinette and floor on that side under bench seat is also soaking wet. Calling in our RV service tech. Maybe he can wrk his magic again. We happen to be in same area in Indiana. We decided on a new Rig prob around end of year but we may be buyjng sooner. Coachman is owned by Forest River. This is our 2nd FR. Doubt we'll go there again. We do service maintenance once a year w/licensed tech and we routinely do our own maintenance about every 6mo.

We have had this trailer since November 2019. We bought it new. Issues: water leaks (floor needed to be replaced because of water damage), converter/charger replaced, three Everchill refrigerators replaced, two slide out motors burned out due to faulty slide switch, power tongue lift needed to be replaced. We have not had a trip where there has not been a problem. The dealer has had possession of this trailer more than us due to these issues. The issues are not the dealer's fault. It's the factory (Forest River) that is to blame. The dealer's service department has bent over backwards to help us. We will look to another brand of RV next time we look to purchase. We had traded our 2015 Coachmen 333REDS because of too many water leaks (and also a floor replacement, also for $3,500.00). This 2019 is no more reliable than the 2015. How sad. We recommend looking to another brand to purchase.

We had this camper for almost a year. The one thing that I noticed during a heavy rain was water dripping from the air-conditioner. At first we thought that it was condensation, but after speaking with other RV'ers, they said that it should not happen. Took it to a shop and they said that the air-conditioner was so loose on the roof, that they could turn it sideways. Also noticed a lot of left over debris in cabinets. Also they didn't put trim along the bathroom floor in one area. I contacted Coachmen and told them. I asked them if they had quality insurance inspection prior to delivery. They said that they do. Right. Watch a Youtube video on how they make campers. You'll pass out. Everyone is literally running all over the place in the shop trying to get them out. They get paid by the number that they can produce, not hourly pay. No wonder these campers are junk.
