Crossroads Rv Zinger Lite 18BH reviews

Bought new. Needed a few tweaks (TV & stereo not connected) but love the colors & layout. While traveling can access bathrm, bedrm & fridge with slides in for quick stops. Stove w/oven & microwave above.Nice size fridge & freezer and lots of storage with pantry & around entertainment center. Needs electrical outlets on table/sofa slideout area. Plenty of outlets in bunk & bedroom. Bunkhouse is great for the kids. Table down was play area away from main dining and lots of room & storage for kids & friends. Growing teens still fit on bunks. Was considering using as office/storage when teens outgrew us. Full queen main bed with privacy & storage. Nice layout. Ceilings are curved giving more headroom. Same with shower. Outside kitchen & entertainment areas are nice if you like to stay outside. Outside shower is terrific for kids, pets or beachy cleanup. Superlite tows easily even with F150 truck. Heated underbelly allows for longer camping season. Show less

I bought the Zinger in 2024 brand new. The entry door is hard to open and close and when inside i can see light coming from around the door frame. I have been trying to get it fixed for months. I finally found a mobil rv tech that is willing to do warranty work and is trying to get authorization to replace the door along with a couple of other quality issues and customer service is not helpful at all! There is so much more to the story however there is not enough space here to add more details. I will never buy a new camper ever again. Show less

This is a basic trailer, but it is easy to tow and has all of the basics you need plus 100W solar and off road tires. It is perfect for weekend or overnight stays. However! There are a few Cons about it. 1. The bathroom is too small and the shower inside is worthless. 2. You cannot pull out the shelves in the fridge because the bathroom door is in the way. Bad design. 3. The fold down futon sofa is too hard on one side and too soft on the other. There is no good fix to make it comfortable. 4. The fold down bunk only holds 100 lbs... So not good for a bigger child. 5. The solar does not run the A/C. Other than those complaints, we are happy with it because it serves our needs. We didn't need anything fancy and spend most of our time outdoors. Most of the time, it is just the two of us and the dog. Show less

My wife and I are Alaska residents. As such, prepping for winter on the 16bh is a snap! All of the drain points are located in easy to reach areas. The fresh water tank (after draining) separates from the pump, there is a separate pick up hose that draws the antifreeze into the lines. All that's needed is open the valves and the antifreeze pumps in! Slick and fast! The quality, fit, and finish are excellent. With 18 hours of summer daylight, the solar panel works great! Longest trip last year culminated in a total of 1800 miles. Not a single problem! 100%+, well thought out! Could not be happier. FYI, our tow vehicle is a Buick Enclave. The 16bh is a dream to tow, and it's weight is far less than capacity. I would fate this unit at "ten stars" if the program would allow for it! Show less

I am very dissapointed with my crossroads zinger. I bought it brand new in April of this year. Since then I'v had nothing but problems. There were nothing but water leaks in kitchen and bathroom. We got most of them fixed but still leaks in the bathroom. Really bad workmanship. I went in the bedroom to unplug something and the whole outlet came out of wall. Also bad problems with the roof. Bad water leak in the bedroom. This was brandnew when I bought it last year and used it as seasonal camper and it's been nothing but problems. I took it back to the dealer last year and it spent the whole winter, You think they would fix every thing. Now they'er telling me the warranty is expired. What a farse. If you;re looking for a nice camper PLEASE don't even think about Crossroads they're junk Show less

Our family had a great time owning this RV. It's perfect for a starter or a small family. We would definitely advise people to check this out for the cost, weight, etc. Upon purchasing another RV, we may go for a bunk house style but this worked great for our small family. Show less

Worst trailer I have ever owned!! On the surface and for the price it looks great, but quickly learned way it has such a low price point. To start the craftsmanship is horrendous. Missing screws, sealant carelessly applied, and leaky hose connections (ai discovered this at 5 in the morning when I stepped in a puddle that came from under my kitchen sink and I had a similar experience with the bathroom sink. Even with pipe door they continue to leak. It is a huge floor plan, but has almost no storage. I had to install a shelf in the kitchen cabinet because it was just a massive opening. The bed is awful and had to buy a $150 mattress pad just to make it sleepable until I can buy a new mattress. The “closet” space next to the bed isn’t tall enough to hang a shirt. Not sure why they even bothered to put them in if they were going to be so short. I could go on and on about all the things that are awful with this trailer. DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY is the bottom line. Show less

Tows easy, easy to clean outside with smooth sides and roof. Seals are excessive on the roof. Seems to be quality built as have not trim or screws falling out. My major complaint is the toilet is too close to the vanity in the bathroom. Crawling over your mate to go to the bathroom while sleeping is inconvenient as well. Only reason i gave Warranty/support a 3 was I never needed any support and I bought it used. My sixth camper overall. Show less

We purchased in April 22. Insides walls were moving around by October. Sent back to factor in January 2023. Got back in April 2023. The transporter towed it there and back. We went out in May for two weeks. Had some trouble controlling trailer. Took to dealer when we returned and leaf spring was broken. Manufacturer would not honor warranty, eventhough they had it for 3 months of our 1 year warranty and their transport could have broken the springs. Also tires are worn on inside, which could have been caused by broken spring. And then to top it off, the extended warranty would not cover the springs because our mechanic could not tell how the springs broke. They just broke! Our dealer is as frustrated as us because they said they have never had this many problems from Crossroads. We are just about to stop payment and relinquish to the finance company. Rebuilding our credit would be cheaper than trying to maintain this trailer Show less

The 2016 Crossroads ST290QB is a very nice travel trailer that is towable with any full size pickup or SUV at under 5,800 lbs. dry weight. The wide stance axels make it very stable while towing. LED lighting in and out make it dry camping friendly to conserve battery usage. The quad bunks in the bunkhouse at the rear of the trailer is great for kids and friends and the trifold sofa bed is great for visiting adults. The outside kitchen is nice with a small refrigerator to keep drinks cold so as not to need to go in and out of the trailer or need an extra cooler with ice. It also has a wash sink and 2 burner cooktop which are convenient. The power awning and tongue jack make setup a little quicker and easier. Show less
