This RV is often referred to as a "Couple's Camper" because of its open floor plan, king bed and large bathroom. If you get the dinette version it can sleep four. We chose the recliner loveseat sitting in front of the fireplace and relaxing, so our's sleeps two. We have not had any problems with it and I can say that after looking at so many other designs, this one works well for the 2 of us and our large dog. The hardware on the inside doors is sturdy and the doors do not come off the track when underway as some other models do. The large kitchen counter space and pantry are just what we needed. Happy to have the solar panel and monitoring equipment installed and working. Central heat and air are super nice and quiet. Second entry/exit door in the master BR is a bonus, since we sometimes leave the door open with just the screen. Very happy with this unit. It is just under 6000 lbs. and tows easily. It has good ground clearance and is well built with aluminum infrastructure and walkable roof. Having the rear ladder to access equipment on the roof is a big bonus. There are videos available to see the manufacturing plant and process. Oh, and there are organizing shelves built in under the bed and a quick connect for propane to run the grill off the main tanks. Too many extras to mention here. Have not used warranty at all. Did come with crap tires which we promptly replaced. Highly recommend this model if you are looking. Show less

I purchased my Forest River No Bo from an owner who had it for 3 years. At first glance it's a fairly nice travel trailer. Once you have used it for a year or so , you realize how poorly constructed these trailers really are. Of course every cabinet is made from particle board, so the least amount of pressure on an electrical outlet, will knock it right out of the wall. I have two now that are impossible to re-attach. The valances above the windows are sagging from opening and closing them. Overall, these trailers are made like dog do. If I ever decide to purchase another one, it won't be the crap that Forest River puts out. That being said, I'd give them a one star review. Show less

I would never buy another product from this company. We bought this rv new ,when we went to pick it up ac units did not work. First trip out fridge didn't work auto leveling did not work and black water tank valve did not hold black water back, so I took a black water shower, not fun the trailer has been in the shop more than we have been able to use it. I would check other brands before you buy one of these. Show less

FOREST RIVER RV'S ARE COMPLETE JUNK ,THEIR CUSTOMER SERVICE IS HORIBLE I have one of their newer 5th wheels and it's complete CRAP . BUILT WITH COMPLETE IGNORANCE, AND NO PRIDE AT ALL. If you want a quality built rv, trust me, DO NOT BUY ANYTHING BUILT BY FOREST RIVER. Show less

We purchased our 2021 Salem Hemisphere 25RBHL in early 2025, and it was absolutely immaculate—like a brand-new couple’s coach. It even still had that new RV smell inside. We camped almost every month throughout 2025, including Christmas, and we truly can’t put into words how perfectly this model has met our needs. The 25RBHL is the ideal size—not too big and not too small. The interior feels like home without needing to add a single thing. The rear bathroom is incredibly spacious! The theater seating features underlighting and illuminated cup holders, creating the perfect ambiance for watching an action-packed movie. The kitchen offers plenty of cabinet space along with a pantry, which is a huge plus. For a five-year-old trailer, the exterior still looks fantastic—clean and free of stains. Most people assume our Salem Hemisphere 25RBHL is much newer at first glance. The only item we needed to replace was the “H” hot water cap on the bathroom sink, which I found on Amazon for $5. My husband also performed routine annual maintenance on the water heater and replaced the anode rod, purchasing a two-pack for under $20. Other than that, we haven’t had to do a thing. Show less

We spent a good year researching and looking at all the floor plans, hauling, and features to find this toy hauler. It offered the length & weight we wanted, the interior height to make it feel larger, the right amount of sleeping capacity with two kids, and a decent size bathroom so we weren’t squeezed in. The added generator was a huge plus that extended our camping season through winter months for hunting off grid. The garage bay doubled as the perfect travel storage for bicycles, tables, chairs, floats, and all the stuff. We have really enjoyed all the features of this camper!! Show less

I have owned this trailer for 4 years and it has been amazing. It is tiny but well laid out and cozy. We have traveled into the woods and across the nation. We were able to customize the inside to add some storage. It has been the perfect trailer for us. Show less

We bought this 2021 camper late in the 2021 season and didn't pick it up from dealer until 2022 season. Had problems with the bedroom slide out since we got it home. Come to find out, the welds are snapped and is catching causing problems with slide out. Manufacturer won't sand behind this $67,000 purchase and its only been used 8 times. Filing lawsuit! This is absurd. Its been in the shop more than it has been used since day 1 and Forest River won't help at all. Show less

WE OWNED FOR 3 Years.. We were the third owner. #1 was too old to handle set up and take down and returned it to dealer #2 bought it from dealer to use for his business just for one year ...WONDERFUL TO TOW AND CAMP IN!! Loved the outdoor grill and refrigerator. THE ONLY REASON WE SELLING OURS IS BECAUSE I BROKE 2 WRISTS ... END OF STORY!! did not have to use factory warranty or contact support. There is great information about appliances etc at forrest river online. Show less

I bought the RV in April 2022 and I used it less than 1000 miles before I got rid of my Truck and can no longer haul it. I put a $1000.00 dollar mattress in to replace the 4” foam and a brand new convection oven that I never used. I have all the accessories needed to go and use immediately. It still has just under 2 years of warranty left that I can transfer. I am willing to sell it for what I owe on it I just need to sell it since I no longer have the ability to use it. Contact me if you’re interested and I will give you the payoff information. This is a great deal for someone who wants a like new RV for wholesale! Show less
