Coachmen Apex Ultra-Lite reviews

It’s a step up from a Coleman. Very disappointing when our camper was delivered. Poor finishing touches. Kinda cheap inside after you look closer to it. Our stove never worked from first trip out. No way you can take it off grid. There is no power to it. On day two the fridge drains your battery. The heater insulation melted and the heater was full of water. Crack in the side camper wall happened after first use. Good luck trying to get customer service on the phone. There is not enough power to run the camper fridge alone by itself. We have two lithium batters and the fridge drains it. We honestly don’t think they even put insulation in the walls. I wish I can get my money back. I feel so ripped off! Show less

Very happy with this Travel Trailer. Have owned several other makes but this is by far the best. Lived out of this camper a week a month for 2 years in high altitude colorado while building a house. Experienced many cross country adventures with almost no problems over 4 years. 5 out of 5 stars on this one. Show less

Bought this trailer new in 2021 and absolutely love it. Great layout and plenty of storage. Love the large closet at the entry that doubles as a pantry. Nice size bathroom with a lot of cabinet space. Outdoor kitchen is ok...dump that Colman grill it's junk. We got the upgraded AC, frameless windows and theater seating. Quality - There was some trim that needed staples touched up and one trim piece that was cut short all taken care of by the dealer. We only put 10,000 miles on it so far with half of that last year after I retired. Show less

This camper has served us well. Very well built, sturdy. You truly don’t know that it’s back there while hauling. Only issue we have found is the cheap scissor jacks they put on. Do recommend buying different ones. Spend 33,000 on a camper these should be better quality. Show less

Love the floor plan. The issue is we just bought our camper two weeks ago, took it out for the very first time and the refrigerator quit completely. ( Furrion Refrigerator) Tried everything to see if it was a relay or something else. Here all the coolant leaked out. Until Coachmen uses a different product, I'd stay away from them, after reading all of the refrigerator issues they have on line. Don't buy one with that model of fridge in it. Show less

This was our first RV purchase and we have had it now for 3 years. We have been on about 12 trips with it - the longest being 12 hours to Arkansas. It fits our family of five perfectly, with room to add 3 more friends or family members. The separate bunk room for the kids is perfect, and my 5'9" daughter sleeps comfortably in there. It is great that they have their own space, and we have ours in the master bedroom. We have run the heater and the a/c for days straight and it has worked perfectly, we were very comfortable. I love the rainy days when we stay inside and watch movies too. The outdoor space is great - the outdoor kitchen is perfect for our coffee maker, kids sodas and snacks, and extra utensils, we used it quite a bit. There is even an outdoor shower if needed - we only needed it once at the lake. The storage is perfect too - we fit SO much into all the cabinets inside, as well as outside. We had enough towels, games, cleaning supplies, dishes, you name it - to make this basically a second home. Towing the camper was very easy, my husband's F150 had no problems at all. I can't say enough good things about this camper, we have had a wonderful experience with it all the way around. Show less

A modern, clean design with comfort in mind that fits up to 9 people. The rear room contains 3 single bunks with shelving and a closet. The master bedroom shares a rotating TV with the living room and lots of storage space around and under the queen bed. The main area boasts a dinette and a jack-knife sofa which both convert into full-size beds. In the same room is a kitchen with clean appliances and huge countertops. The outdoor kitchen offers a sink with running water, a propane stove, some storage, and a mini fridge waiting to be filled with your tasty beverages! Show less

Frame and suspension had ten years worth of rust when it was three months old. Treated it with phosphoric acid and POR-15. Cabinet doors popped open by themselves on the Interstate and ended up on the floor due to the cheap catches and hinges. Upgraded the hinges and added latches. Rear blind fell off (the heavy wood valance was held on by just 2 #6 screws put into nothing but the wallboard). Screwed them back in to the metal window frame. Couch broke free while driving on the Interstate. Rear cabinet bottom coming apart, had to add brackets. Cabinet over the sink started to fall apart, had to add brackets. 12v battery terminal nuts run only halfway down on the studs (not even finger tight). Bad ground on the bathroom vent fan. Condensation in running lights. Easily breakable refrigerator door handles. Cheap staples holding bed box panel on. Water heater electric element burned out on delivery. Water pump running continuously, pump replaced. Wall outlet covers falling off. Dome light covers falling off. The 12v battery doesn't have much storage, on off-grid night four the heater and refrigerator stopped working because there wasn't enough voltage (my site was ~50% shaded and the solar panel is only 100 watts). I replaced it with a couple of 6v golf cart units in series, and am planning a major upgrade to the solar capacity. In the meantime I bring a generator to boondock. Show less

Great trailer! We love it! It's plenty big for our family, and it has great features! We love that it has the actual bedroom up front, along with an outside door! The bunks are nice for the kids, and it's extra handy to be able to flip up the bottom bunk and have the extra storage/hang up space. One of the unique features of this camper is the walk-in pantry.

Our Coachman Chapperal lite is a 2015 and has catastrophic water issues which just started this year. We cover it every winter and have taken great care of it but the slide outs leak and the back wall has ajso leaked causing $2 300.00 in damages. Our rv insurance is saying it's due to lack of care. I guess they don't last well as they aren't built like they used to be. Show less
