2020 Forest River reviews

This RV, on a Mercedes-Benz Chassis rides as comfortably as anything you have ever driven, true Mercedes-Benz comfort. The bathroom could be a bit larger, but other than that, no complaints. The Onan generator and on-board LP gas tank are very convenient. Show less

The standard model, with a dinette, is a typical attempt to compromise for families. But the substitution of theater seating for the dinette, turns this rig into a no compromise couples camper. I actually lived in mine for four months while home searching. The kitchen sports a small bar and two stools, so you won't miss the dinette. Clever storage solutions allow for more than enough space for weeks worth of camping and the small overall size of the trailer (24ft) makes it welcome everywhere - even National Parks! The bathroom is the size you would expect, but the shower is the same size as the one on my previous 37ft triple slide trailer. Large, 8 cubic ft refrigerator and ample counter space, make the kitchen very cook friendly. TV is perfectly placed for viewing from the recliners, or the bed. The trailer has a front window and no back window. I was surprised to find that I liked that arrangement, but it may not be for everyone. With a residential queen mattress on the frame (storage beneath) it has been the most comfortable berthing of any trailer I have owned. Good sized awning provides ample shade and its smaller profile and weight make it both easy to tow and easy to park. Seven interior windows and two skylights make for a light, breezy interior space. Trailer has a remote connection via smartphone app, which allows the operator to open the slideout while standing outside to see obstructions. The awning and RV lighting can be likewise controlled from the app. Standard sized Fresh, gray and blackwater tanks. Electric and propane water heater. I owned this model for three years and found it easy to service and maintain. Winterization is a snap. Show less

The 35 ft 5th wheel tows easily. Like all RVs, the factory delivers them to the owner with flaws (unfinished work, poorly installed part and pieces, so.over the course of time the warrenty has helped solve these problems and Forest River was easy to work with and without hesitation, enabled repairs. The Sierra is a reliable RV with well thought out amenities, making for fun adventures! Show less

Beautiful and functional! We love the full size refrigerator and bathroom! The washer and dryer is a game changer for trips! We added wider steps to the door so it is easier to enter and exit. The app and electronics of the trailer are convenient and work like a charm! The sofa makes into a comfortable bed and still leaves room to move! Lighting and fireplace sets a great ambience and makes you feel like you are at home! This is an excellent buy for a beautiful home-away-from-home! Show less

I am an owner of a Forest River Georgetown Series 5 31R & even purchased extended warranties for GAP, Tire/Wheel, Full Coach but never had to use them. The factory even replaced the original upholstery material with a newer, improved material. The only issues were a vent that did not open properly & a bathroom window knob that was broken but both were immediately replaced by the company's regional rep. Show less

This RV is the perfect size. 33ft can give you a lot of space and yet is easy to pull. Its great in the city and in the mountains. Its nice to look at and is very comfortable. It has auto-leveling which is a must. It also has a nice fireplace that can heat up your room or just be a light show. With 3 TV's, we move from the living into the bedroom to fall asleep in bed. The furniture is well made. It is really a nice 5th wheel. Show less

The Versatility and Features the Geo Pro G16TH has in such a small Package is incredible. From Solar Power, Cargo Carrying Capacity, and Off Grid capability its amazing. It's easy to tow and fits where other larger RV's can't fit! I believe it's a perfect starting point for anyone just getting into Camping, attending Events, or for instant living quarters. Show less

We love the open concept floor plan with large bathroom! For a couples camper it's been perfect and decent when we have had the occasional guests. The camper has ample storage inside and out. It makes a great spring, summer and fall camper, however it is not for winter camping! It has heated tanks and a fireplace but is not insulated enough to comfortably camp all year. My only other complaint is the large windows in the slide don't open. But for the price point I understand. I did have some slide issues initially but once I lubed up the rack and pinion components it's worked great. The RV sits up high so it does catch a lot of wind when towing, anti sway bars are highly recommended! The plastic access a belly cover underneath the camper cracked and I had to repair it, wasn't to difficult. All in all I have really enjoyed this RV. I did not have any dealings with the warranty or factory support as I work on my RV myself. Show less

This was one of the best purchases for our family. We are a family of 6 and using this RV for camping or extended road trips was as easy as it could get with the variety of seating arrangements and seatbelts in multiple locations throughout the coach. Also having full access to fridge, pantry, and bathroom makes the need for multiple stops along the way a thing of the past. Show less

All these campers look the same....BORING....until I found this gem. This is a true couple coach. Perfect for 2 people and a dog. Don't bother thinking anyone will ever sleep on that pull out couch. I love the floor plan. The kitchen is large and useable, especially on inside days. Is it perfect, no, show me a camper that is at this price point. It feels like my second home when I'm in it. What I would change? Bedroom needs a slide, it's cramped to walk around the bed. Livingroom needs a fireplace, I fixed that myself. Campers need to get rid of the ovens, who the heck is using the oven??? The outdoor kitchen is a bit of a waste, I'm going to remove the grill and put a cutting board there, we always bring our blackstone anyways. The carpet needs to go. Needs a bigger fridge. more windows. Mine is missing the soundbar remote, GOOD LUCK finding one, apparently these soundbar remotes are lost somewhere with the arc in the birmuda triangle. Even the manufacture can't find one. We have stayed in our surveyor for weeks at a time and were perfectly comfortable. No mechanical issues other than ones I caused. Show less
