Coachmen Liberty Edition Travel Trailer reviews

We love everything about this trailer (great family memories). We love the high-end kitchen and private front bedroom. This is the largest bunkhouse we've seen in a travel trailer that doesn't require a 3/4-ton truck, and the shelving and clothes cabinet is more than enough space for all our kids' stuff. Wife loves the large pantry, spacious bathroom and adult-sized shower. The slideout is nearly the length of the trailer (minus the bedrooms), making it very spacious and open. Show less

This Coachmen 30’ travel trailer is beautiful inside with ALL the upgrades available. It has a great outdoor kitchen, perfect for hot summer days, and has tv set up and full awning . Big comfy King bed in private bedroom w/lots of cabinets/closets, plus full storage under bed to outside hatch. XL front kitchen w/tons of cabinets and 2 pantries, perfect dinette/bed, w/storage under seats. Very comfy heat massage light recliners in front of big tv. Highly Recommend buying this camper. I did not qualify for a loan. In GA if you buy Rv from person NOT dealer you DONT Pay ANY Sales tax, Saving Thousands (7%) Show less

We thoroughly enjoyed this trailer. Our goal was to snowbird, moving every three weeks or so, so we were looking for something towable but with the size of a destination trailer. This trailer met our requirements perfectly. We lived in it for three to four months each year, and we never felt cramped. The floor plan and towability were what sold us, and we truly appreciated those features. We bought our trailer new and experienced some initial quality issues after a one-week trial camp nearby. The dealer was able to address the major problems under warranty, and we haven't had any significant issues since then. This is a good-sized, very tow-able trailer that suited our needs very well.

We bought our 2019 Coachmen Catalina 243 RBS new. I have to tell you, it's been nothing but problems. First the air conditioner on the roof wasn't tightened down and when it rained, we had to put a bucket under it. The repair shop said they could almost turn it sideways, that's how loose it was. Second issue was rain dripping on us while we were sleeping. The seal in the front where the roof meets the metal needed to be caulked all over. I did that myself. This happened twice. Third, the switch on the power jack went out and I had to replace that. Fourth, the factory didn't caulk one side of the travel trailer. The dealership noticed that when we brought it in to have the air-conditioner tightened. Fifth, one day we noticed they didn't even bother to put trim where the floor and wall meet. They did it in some areas and not others. I would have to say that I am disappointed in the workmanship of this travel trailer. I would tell anyone that is considering buying any travel trailer or RV, to buy one that is a couple of years old. Otherwise it'll sit in the shop half the time getting repairs done. Show less

Overall it is comfortable. Plenty of room to move around. Has one of the largest bedrooms in trailers. Easy to tow with our Dodge Ram 1500 with the 5.7L motor. There are three slide outs in this model. We have had leaks in all slides. This has caused the flooring at the interior corners of the coach to deteriorate and cause spongy floors. The slides have been the main issue with this coach. Forest River cannot seem to manufacture a decent seal for the slides. Shame on them. Another issue was the refrigerator. It is an all electric Everchill brand. It does not require propane to operate. This brand does not seem to be reliable. After the refrigerator was replaced for the third time, we finally got a refrigerator that works. The slide motors needed to be replaced. The hitch jack needed to be replaced, the electrical panel needed to be replaced. Awning vinyl is poor quality. Too much junk is used to manufacture these RVs. The parts are not reliable and the manufacture is charging too much for what you are buying. And value for the money? It stinks. Some of the defects were repaired under the warranty period. But the leaky slides and spongy floors were not because they appeared some time after the warranty period expired causing us to pay $$$$$. Show less

Purchased July 2018, has leaked since first rain. Started in bunkroom slide floor. Wet all around corners and side wall. Then 12' dinette and love seat slide started samething. New roof added year later. What that has to do w/slides leaking I still have no idea, and continued to leak after. Bunk room floor started coming away from wall. Collapsing. Dealership pulled slide installed new floor & fixed leaking problem. Still leaked afterward. So far warranty was paying for everything until they weren't. Dealership service got snotty and screwed us over. It was same problem over & over. Stay away from Larry's RV in Illinois. They were great until they weren't. Now while all this was happening, during winter we would get ice and condensation on walls in both slides. Inside. Dehumidifier helps but we still have to be vigilant. That was life for 4yrs. It was only after summer of 2022 that we finally saw relief w/leaking slides. A RV service tech in Indiana tore off rubber seal all around our slides. And until recently, neither slides leaked. The bunkroom still has not. Our 12' dinette and LR slide has started to sag in center. Water has started to leak through our light fixture over dinette and floor on that side under bench seat is also soaking wet. Calling in our RV service tech. Maybe he can wrk his magic again. We happen to be in same area in Indiana. We decided on a new Rig prob around end of year but we may be buyjng sooner. Coachman is owned by Forest River. This is our 2nd FR. Doubt we'll go there again. We do service maintenance once a year w/licensed tech and we routinely do our own maintenance about every 6mo. Show less

All in all poor craftsmanship and not built to last. I bought this camper to save money while traveling the country for work . In the last 5 months I've had to replace all the pex fittings in the bathroom, the Seals in the toilet and the shower walls. The slide out keeps getting out of alignment and the fridge keeps going out. The longer I stay in it the more I notice the poor craftsmanship from the crooked cabinets to the the trim coming undone. I would not recommend this camper. Show less

We have a coachment Catalina édition 303 rkp 2019. We have issues with the side floating patio. Thee is some soft spot on the floor patio. And when we fold the patio close the us some water that is dripping from the bottom corners of the patio. Any one had this problem? Show less

This trailer has been out of service more than it has been in service. AC has been replaced twice in 1 year. Inverter went bad before 1 year but I was told it was intermittent so they couldn't find the electrical problem, until it of course was out of warranty. At 42k you would think there would be a better warranty than just a year. Not worth the money and will not buy a Coachmen or Forrest River product again. Wished I had passed on this or at least looked at all the reviews. Seems these are common issues. Show less
