2023 Coachman reviews

The quality of this camper is horrible. First time out with camper, the cupboard doors, drawers, and refrigerator door were all open with the contents spilled everywhere. None of the latching systems are adequate. Had to add bungy cords on everything. One drawer bottom broke loose. Drawer construction is a joke. Had to rebuild the drawer. More repairs will likely be required. After a few short trips, discovered a leak hidden under the bed. The access hatch under the bed wouldn't open due to crooked construction. Had to remove and modify the access panel to access the leak. The floor sagged in one corner of the camper causing the door to have a gap. Camper wall was crooked. Camper sent back to the Forest River for repairs. Lift system brackets came loose repeatedly. Tightened and repaired twice myself, then by the Dealer but came loose the first time it was used when I picked up the camper. Still waiting for repairs by General RV. At this time, General RV and Forest River have had possession of my camper for 8 months of the first year of ownership and it's still not usable. Show less

Purchased January 2023. 1st trip out, the seats fell off of the wall while traveling . Had an issue with the shower leaking from underneath. Had it to the dealer for repairs. 2nd trip out, the furnace quit working. Paid to have an RV repairman come look at it. 3rd trip out, the wallpaper is falling off of the walls, Linoleum is rolling up off of the floor, replaced 3 regulator’s and the AC quit working. Trailer had a 1 year warranty. Run as far away from this cheap unit as possible! Not worth over $30 k. Show less

This is a great singles or couples coach. I love the countertop space and the light colors. The fridge is a great size, and I like that it will run on the 12V while driving down the road, which I think is much safer than driving with the propane on. The solar panel on the roof does a good job of keeping the battery charged, but if you want to boondock you need to add another battery or upgrade to a Lithium. On the negative side, there are no drawers for the kitchen and storage above the bed is difficult to reach without a step stool. The curved storage also makes it hard to best utilize the space. The couch is comfy for sitting but a little hard, and like putting my feet up so will likely switch out for a recliner in the future. Love the bike and kayak rack, but have yet to figure out how to get the kayak up on the roof as a solo. The awning lights did not last long, although they function the colors are all mixed up already and some of the lights out. Show less

Just purchased and found no power to hitch and digital rear view cuts on and off. Dealer, Fretz, claims they were unaware and its a dodge problem put in a claim with dodge . Was advised there is also an open recall on the brakes. Dodge claim adviser tells me the only dealers that can fix are 5 hours away! I live in Maryland with access to Delaware, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, but West Virginia, seriously?I so regret the purchase. Show less
