2022 Forest River reviews

This camper is a complete nightmare. We purchased it brand new in 2022 and were blinded by how "beautiful" it was. We were naive new camper owners who did not know what to look for. Every time we go camping, something breaks or falls apart. Tons of trouble with electrical components in the camper, none of the USB ports work on the inside, and some of the outlets do not work. The buttons for the electric jacks have broken 3 times in the 3 years we've had the camper. The awning is coming unattached on one side. The shower has leaked out the corner of the floor since the first time we used it. The biggest issue that we have run into is that the storage compartment door on the underbelly storage was installed incorrectly from the manufacturer (according to a service tech who looked at it) which caused a leak. The leak has now caused floor rot. We got a quote to fix this and it was quoted to us at $8000. This is INSANE! When I reached out to Forest River about getting this replaced as it was due to faulty install/manufacturing, they stated that because the warranty was over there was nothing they can do. They do NOT back their brand and they do NOT care about customer service. Run far, far away before ever purchasing a Forest River. Show less

Love our 2022 Super lite 29RLBS RV. We purchased new . Only problem was a loose water line under kitchen sink that just needed tightened. Once the living slide was stuck. We manually opened ot then has worked with no problem extending or retracting. . Definitely recommend Flagstaff Show less

We traveled full time for 6 months twice around the country. It was the perfect rig for me. I am 69 years old with a bad back. The hydraulic leveling worked great also had the large plastic pads so I didn't have to put out boards or plastic pads. Electric cord is on a powered winch so no heavy lifting. Connect water and drain and you are relaxing in 10 minutes. Turn on the roof top satellite dish that automatically finds a satellite. Pull a bottle of wine out of the wine cooler hit the fireplace on and turn on some tunes or the game. This unit has 3 ac's with duct that are quiet, a dishwasher, full fridge, 4 burner stove with a oven that you can cook a turkey in. It has a metal frame walls which are more sturdier than the wood. Can't rot either. Insulated glass windows. Show less

We bought this RV used. The previous owner says he only used it about 8 times in 3 years, which we thought was good... WRONG! He didn't use it enough to find all the problems and ensure they were fixed. So far, generator wouldn't start. Probably from not being used, but we did a ton of research and found many places saying this brand was junk. Air conditioner in the main living area and thermostat for it don't work. It will say it's 57 degrees in there, but felt more like 80. Did a ton of research and found the engineer design put the temperature sensor up in the condenser so it reads cold all the time. Took a shower and ended up with a huge pool of water on the bathroom floor. Realized they didn't bother to seal anything between the chintzy plastic walls and the shower base. There is a leak somewhere in the main room. We haven't yet determined if it's from the air conditioner or slide. The siding that wraps under the 5th wheel is peeling away, with the screws pulled out. The fridge doesn't keep food at safe temperature. Anything against the back will freeze, anything in the front will spoil. The back entry door doesn't latch properly. The overall layout and design is horrible... the RV is so tall, and has MoRyde 4 steps to get in, but they used a tiny 10 inch reach fold away handle up by the door knob. The hallway going up to the master bedroom is very narrow. The steps for the back bunk don't reach the floor, so they're not very steady or sturdy. Storage is almost non-existent, and what is there inside is high up so we have to keep a step stool in there. Outside is a teeny tiny door on the pass through, not nearly big enough to throw a chair in. We are hoping the transfer of the extended warranty the previous owner purchased comes through soon so we can get some of this taken care of. My parents had a Forest River Work n Play toy hauler that was garbage also, so I should have known better. Next time we'll spend a little more for something other than Forest River that hopefully doesn't have as many issues. My advice is STAY AWAY!!! Show less

A very comfortable and well laid out travel trailer that is easily towable with a Toyota Tacoma. Plenty of bed space, large bathroom and spacious kitchen area along with an outdoor kitchen and shower area make it the perfect camper for both short and long trips. I had a blast with this trailer. It is built for off pavement exploring and I have had no issues with it managing forest roads or washouts. Show less

The Rockwood Geo Pro 16BH is a lightweight, compact travel trailer designed for adventurous couples and small families. It's known for its manageable size, making it easy to tow with various vehicles, and its thoughtful layout that includes bunk beds, a U-shaped dinette that converts to a bed, and a full bath. Excellent weekender or even longer stays. Completely comfortable for 4 persons. Show less

We purchased a 2860DS and have had it for almost 3 years now. We love the outdoor kitchen and have loved the layout inside as well. We have traveled over 13,000 miles and have enjoyed every minute. We plan on more in the next two years. It’s easy being right at 30 ft. To park in a larger parking lot with no problems. Show less

Buying a Forest River product was one of the worst decisions I’ve ever made. We've had constant issues—starting with the slide-out, which has never worked right, trim falling apart, water leaks, and more. Reaching out to Forest River is useless—they don’t return calls, emails, or show any concern for their customers. When we took our unit in the first time, the tech told us the slide-out hole was cut wrong from the factory. Not long after, that guy was mysteriously gone—seems like he was let go for telling us the truth. Dealers are clearly forced to downplay the problems and claim it’s just an 'adjustment'—but it's a manufacturing defect, plain and simple. Total disappointment. Show less
