Earthbound RV Toy Haulers Travel Trailer reviews

The 2016 176s is the best design of a smaller RV ever. We bought every item available in the top of the line package except the TV. The front of the camper kitchen and the dining room"booth" slide out made this a spacious and comfortable camper for us. We have the Amish temperpedic mattress -- so spoiled! The only complaint were the tires. We used the factory tires for one year and bought Goodyear tires. Rosie the Retro traveled beautifully. I have heard that from covid 2020 on, the manufacturing was not as solid. But we have had no problems at all! 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

Best quality RV I have ever owned tows like a dream best winter RV you can buy. Quality and craftsmanship surpasses any RV sold today. Best resale value of RVs today. Tinted windows reflect the heat and they are double pane to keep the heat in. Frame is super quality tougher than nails. Trailer hitch high quality build. Factory support is quick friendly and professional. Never a problem getting a response from Bigfoot. Buy your Bigfoot used to avoid paying Tariffs. Show less

Don’t buy a Venture Rv (KZ Brand trailer)! Spent $65,000 on a Sporttrek, and it’s the quality of my child’s fisher price toys. Horrible customer service, they don’t warranty or stand behind their products. They installed a window incorrectly in my master bedroom, causing water to seep into the Rv over time going unnoticed since it was hidden. They’ve told me to kick rocks and too bad so sad. Don’t make the same mistake I did. Give any other company your money. Show less

We have owned for four years and couldn't be happier. After two Casitas, a Scamp and a TAB, this is by far the best small travel trailer. We looked at some when we shopped that you could literally tear apart with your hands. This one is very well made from quality materials. It is roomier on the inside than you'd expect because of the design of the windshield and front cap. We especially love the large wet bath, the queen bed, the front dinette, and the outdoor kitchen, There are very few "what the heck were they thinking" design issues. One is the flat shower pan, which doesn't fully drain if the camper is off level. I'm on the fence about the combined black/grey tanks. Sometimes I like it, sometimes I don't. Show less

I read some of the reviews and I’m quite surprised. I have had 1 minor issue with a small leak that was a easy fix. I been very happy with mine overall. The only gripe I have is I can’t figure out how to work the inverter. Not that I really need it, but the dealer really didn’t know how either. Show less

Livability the camper is perfect. I travel for work state to state, and it had been a breath of fresh air. However overall quality of the RV has been hell. I was giving a one-year warranty and when i call in for service no one ever calls back nor help. The summertime my ac unit went out. I call the local dealer for assist and no help. Out of pocket I paid 1500 just to fix the AC unit. When I purchase my camper in March of 2024 I was not told or educated on the horrible service I would get with the warranty. Now my refrigerator unit went out. The lights are on, but the unit is not getting cold. I called yet again to make a service appointment left voicemail and no call back or return any of the calls. Why purchase the extra warranty when they don't help you with the original warranty. Show less

We bought this unit new in 2018. We were impressed with the Murphy bed, outdoor kitchen and large bathroom. The quality seemed ok for the low price. I spent my career in construction and hvac service so the couple of small issues that I saw I knew I could resolve without getting the dealer or manufacturer involved. Little did I realize six years later how poorly thought out the build quality of these units were. I have a hard time believing that these units were actually built to leak from underneath the frame. The entire width and about 24” inches in of the rear of the unit’s plywood floor was completely rotted out. As I got into taking out the rotten wood I saw that these units are designed to leak water when ever it was towed in the rain. This went on with no obvious signs of water intrusion for six years until one day i put my hand down on the floor of the outdoor kitchen and it pushed through the plywood. I am having to tear out the outdoor kitchen, the bath vanity and water heater in order to replace all the water damage. Fortunately I have the ability to do the work myself so I’m lucky there but I would never recommend Sonic or any Venture product again. I have also removed all Venture/Sonic badging. My wife and I have enjoyed many camping adventures in this unit so when I’m done with reno we’ll be back out in our new, water resistant/proof, no name travel trailer. Show less
