Coachmen Freedom Express Ultra Lite reviews

Wife & I Purchased a 2022 Coachmen Apex ultra-lite 295rbk Steer clear at all cost ! What a POS! I WILL TELL EVERYONE UNTIL I DIE TO NEVER BUY A COACHMEN /FOREST RIVER My 8th grade daughter could caulk & cut & assemble better than whatever group of junkies put this travel trailer together, There's got to be over 50 holes & 50 staples showing throughout the trailer, Where someone thought it smart to caulk & fill in w mismatched caulk, the entire cardboard trim around inside of RV shows every staple & nail polish mark. Used the shower for first time to find out there was no caulk put down and what was there was not going to stop a drop let alone a showers worth. Vanity n floor were wet from leaking underneath the shower door rail! Shower door knob was put on stripped n fell off first night. Every cabinet door is uneven n looks to be almost falling off when opened! Paneling that is unstapled by the TV.. Then the KICKER 2 Outlets kept tripping only to find out from dealer there were multiple shorts throughout the RV that could have electrocuted my family! Company should be shut down, Now RV has sat at dealer for A Week without 1 phone call being answered or them warranting the shoddy work needed to be done, Forget the campground reservations made that had to be canceled & not refunded, This company pumps out trash to hard working people & once they have your hard earned $, they are no where to be found. There are better companies out there that stand by their workmanship as I've seen Forest River is Not one of them. Run walk crawl away from this company. If could give negative stars I would in a heartbeat. Show less

I thoroughly enjoy the floor plan and livability of this trailer. The bathroom space in general could use a little more space as the shower space and bathroom sink is cramped. Overall storage space is generous and kitchen and dinette are well placed in relation to one another for meals. Rear lounge is well placed for comfortable viewing of the tv. Fireplace is a nice addition, as well! Refrigerator cannot be accessed when slide rooms are not deployed, which was one of my "must haves" in a trailer purchase, but the floor plans other benefits helped to overcome this need. This trailer tows like a trailer that is much smaller than it is. It is stable in the many weather conditions that I have experienced towing it! The initial quality has been very disappointing. Many items, both big and small, have required the trailer to return to the dealer for warranty work and several camping trips had to be canceled for repairs to take place. An inoperative slide room noticed right after delivery upon preparing for a maiden voyage with the trailer, loose shower walls that lost proper adhesion to the adjoining interior walls, an A/C fan motor that was not balance causing a vibration throughout the trailer and a leaking rear window due to lack of proper sealing were among the big items requiring repairs. Lots more small things, some of which I fixed myself. I have owned a variety of trailers/fifth wheels in my lifetime, but have never had any that have required the number of repairs that this trailer has needed. Show less

This is a great unit! The quality overall was great, a few nits here and there that I was able to take care of (if you buy an RV, be prepared to do alot of your own maintenance), but overall has been solid. The layout is great, love the separate bedroom and the huge slide. Show less
