Coleman Lantern LT Travel Trailer reviews

All the Coleman/Dutchmen engineers got together and asked: “how can we make the cheapest trailer possible, yet still charge a high price”? and so they came up with the 2024 Coleman 18BH. Consensus: Lets scale down the nice Lippert 4,400 lb axle and use a cheaper Terran 4,000 lb. axle. Tinted windows? NO, too expensive. Windows? 2 should be enough, although you get NO cross through ventilation (as they’re NOT on opposite sides) Storage? Empty spaces under kitchen countertop that SHOULD have doors or drawers (unusable voids)- HUGE space under bunkbed you cannot access, unusable, should have had a door to the outside. (too expensive) The so-called “couch” is too short for a normal person (VERY uncomfortable) and the cushions on couch AND dinette are hard as a rock. General storage capacity? Not enough for even One person. The radio (no cd player!! Really?) and the speakers are about the cheapest on the market. The 3rd time I opened the cap for the electric plug-in, it broke. Any pros? To be fair, a good size refrigerator, but it runs on DC only, so you BETTER have solar panels if you are ever to boondock. The bathroom is tight, but that’s expected in an 18ft trailer. This is my 4th trailer so I KNOW what I’m talking about. Good luck. Show less

The camper comes with a 15-year roof Warranty. When the roof and slideout roof leaks and the floor becomes spongy, they will. The dealer will not accept the warranty. These campers are disposable junk. Show less

Bought this Coleman lantern 202RD new in 2019. Used maybe 12 times. Have a leak in bed area in closet. Material to make walls and pantry cheap. Was told at purchase place, Camping World Strafford Mo, could be pulled with a half ton. I tried this but was a a struggle for the half ton. Now using a 3/4 ton still struggling on hills. Show less

I've spent one week in this trailer the cabinets don't have latches to hold them up when open, the trim on the walls fell off, the board that the mattress is on is collapsing, and the refrigerator is so small it only holds like a days worth of food at a time. Do not recommend Show less

It was junk, after a year and a half the wall paper, trimming inside and out started falling off, the inside speakers were only held by two screws and fell onto the floor, the blinds inside and the awning fell down and coleman will not stand by their product at all. They’relemons. Show less

Bought new from Camping World March 2022. Live in it full time. Here is a list of everything that has broken and NOTHING is covered under warranty. -2 sliding interior doors broke/fell off hinges -3 walls on slides (interior) pulled away from frame (had staples holding it on from the manufacturer) -outside kitchen vent blew off going down the highway two weeks after buying the unit and shocker not covered under warranty -refrigerator door handke broke off within the first month -water was not draining well in the bathroom sink husband looked in the piping underneath and found screws in the P-trap This unit is a poorly built piece of junk that we are stuck with and continually told none of it is under warranty Show less

The camper is cheaply made.After picking it up and taking g it out 2 days later to use it the top bunk almost fell off the wall. The light wood they use is falling off the wall. It rained and it leaked in 4 locations with water running across the floor.and many other items to many to mention.Called the dealership and got a attitude from them.Contacted Dutchman and they were not interested in helping.Said it wad between me and the dealership.In my opinion you would think the manufacture would help do something.would not buying a Dutman caper or anything from camping world.They called and bugged every day when trying to get you to buy a camper.Once you purchase it they will not return calls. With the roof leaking now there is water damage to the walls and the floor. Show less

Oh boy. Bought this junk from camper world. Roof leaks, water heater died right away. Tank levels never worked. Furnace didn't work more than 2x. Panels on walls piping staples. Bought $900 tire warranty, tire sidewall blew in 500 miles. This is just the problems in it's 1st summer. Back at camping world for 4 months. Nothing done. Asked for trailer back and they refused. I had to call police to get camper back. CW called cops and claimed I tried to run manager over. CW has cameras all over their riplot. I didn't get charged. Must of been a lie. Nothing fixed. More falls apart everyday. Pu leather peeled off all furniture. Roof is a thin plastic sheet. Vinyl flooring would work better. I'm talking 12x12 stickies. I can't in good faith sell this camper to anyone else. Maybe come a flatbed trailer trailer in the future. Show less

BUYER BEWARE!!! We were driving down the highway and a semi truck passed us and honked so we looked back and saw that the siding of our trailer had peeled back from the wind! I tried several times to request warranty assistance from this company and from Coleman for our 5 year old trailer. They said the warranty is only good for 1 year. These trailers are made super cheap inside and out. Don't expect yours to hold up for more than a year! We previously owned a 2001 Sportsman that we sold when we upgraded to this trailer and while that one was much older, it was made to last, unlike this brand. I wish I could attach photos to this review. We are lucky no one was hurt when our trailer's siding failed. Show less

we have had nothing but problems with this camper. They have put 2 refrigerators in it. There are staples sticking out of the walls had it back to the dealer they did not fix the staples. The bath room shower walls are coming loose will have to go back to the dealer again!! One of the vents does not close right they say it is ok so I guess I will have to fix that. The back side roof has a slight bow downwards in the middle so all the water runs on top of the slide instead of going off the end. I guess they say that's ok. The upper bunk underside the paneling was falling off so I had to add some screw so it would not break. Seals under one slide were coming out they had to redo. There are staple holes every where they did not attempt to fill or make look ok. We have owned 5 campers and this is by far the poorest quality I have seen. Show less
