Forest River SUNSEEKER 2400B MBS 2400B MBS reviews

Our first RV - purchased new in OH and drove back to AZ. A Forest River Sunseeker Mercedes Benz 2400T. It was planned for just my wife and I - we love the 2400 T layout. Two electronic theatre recliners, with tray tables - instead of a booth (we do not like booths). We have the fold down queen bed, a nice sofa and a pop in dining table. It all works for us. Probably the best feature is the bathroom - that sold my wife. It is the largest in its class, the full width of the RV, with plenty of room and privacy to get dressed in. Love the electric awning with the LED lights too. Show less

Been RV's for over 45 years, and this is absolutely the best one we've owned. First, I'm writing this review sitting in the RV while my husband is driving. All thanks to the Winegard Router that was factory installed, so we have secure wifi while in motion. Livability and Floor plan- absolute best! Our 2nd MBS and our 2nd Sunseeker. First Sunseeker was the 2500TS gas model, but wanted a diesel as we put a lot of miles on our RV's, so traded it for a Jayco Melbourne, even though storage was a compromise. When it was time to trade up, the newest Jayco Melbourne had cut corners on the storage. The outside access storage was gone where the dinette was. Cheaper for them- but they lost a customer due to such a minor cost saving 'fix' for them. We researched every MBS, and only the Sunseeker 2400B (or sister Forester 2401B) gave us what we needed. The closet in the back gives much more room, 10 CF fridge, and outside storage is phenomenal for such a small Class C. There are 5 storage compartments! Carries large dog food bags, the BBQ grill, chairs, etc. Drivability is excellent, and just filled up with 13.8mpg going down the highway. Almost 15000 miles put on it in the last 6 months, and couldn't be happier with this one. Quality, Forest River Support and Warranty: Bought this one during the pandemic, and well realize that all RV's can have quality control issues. This isn't new to any one manufacturer. This one was extremely minor, and actually extremely pleased with the quality. A 'thump' when the slide goes out, propane gauge shows empty even when full. Contacted Forest River Support and Cheri Hower picked up on the first ring- and got us going in the right direction, literally in a matter of minutes. Incredibly pleased with the Forest River Warranty support, as well as Cheri's willingness to help and her knowledge. She also responded to an email almost immediately, and wants nothing more than to make her customers pleased with Forest River. Couldn't ask for moe With over a dozen RV's over all these years, to find one that really has decent quality and all we're looking for in a small diesel RV- we're not trading in anytime soon. Found the one that works for us, and our 3 dogs. Totally livable in such a small package. Next trip is back to Alaska this spring! Show less

After purchasing my $125000 motor home. I had to tighten all screws, the door latch screws were 3 full turs loose, looked under the rear and found the guard that covers the electrical wiring for the electric jacks hanging be 1 bolt. took 3hours to find the right nuts, metric, to bolt the guard back in place. The sewer drain hose tube is a joke, only 2 feet deep. I bought a colapsable 15 foot hose from my dealer. Guess what, it don't fit. had to make my own underbody tube to store drain hose in. Cannot open refrigerator door wide enough to adjust the shelves. The door hits the corner of the bed. Sewer shut off valves leak. Pull handles for the valves are to far out, pushes door open. Drives and rides nice. Not as good of milage as i would like. only 10 to 12 mpg. Show less

Re my above previous Review ... just looked at it & it shows just 4 stars ... I actually rated it 5 stars which was the highest it allowed. Not sure why it showed up as just 4 stars!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Chuck Show less

Brand new Feb 17, 2016 ... we selected all extras ... put 3200 miles on it in 3 weeks ... fabulous performance ... the Mercedes 3500 Chassis is outstanding & diesel engine purrrrrrs along at all speeds including 70s on Interstates across Nebr/Colo/New Mexico/Ariz/Nev/Utah ... 13-14 mpg ... Mercedes handles mountains nicely ... runs smoothly & quietly. The rear & side-view video systems are VERY helpful! The handling & maneuverability is really special! Love everything about the interior ... great features ... over cab bunk is spacious ... two TVs are well placed ... terrific windows throughout ... including 2 on each side of the over-cab bunk ... we like the ability to close off queen bed sleeping area as well as bathroom when desired from front area. Get the upgraded memory foam bed--it is really comfortable! Kitchen is well designed with great functionality & appliances. The sink is large/deep/attractive/functional with an extra pop-up counter to its left for added counter space. The electric systems are outstanding ... whether plugged in at RV park or camping without external electricity supply the seamless interaction with the 12 volt batteries & generator is very efficient. The refrigerator provides a comfortable amount of storage & operates by simply pushing the "on" button & "auto" button ... no need to select temperatures or to deal with which power supply is used. The sliding glass door in the shower is a really nice touch for looks/entry/exit & space. The outside storage is the best you can find in a Class C ... 75 cubic feet with easy access ... the storage compartment all the way across the back of the RV with 3 access doors is really GREAT! The cab seats are very stylish/comfortable & they both swivel around with ease--provides expanded seating which is important! We love the outside shower--mostly for cleaning off as needed after outdoor activities before entering the RV. The 2 slides operate with push-button ease & provide good space for a 25 foot Class C RV--very pleased with this. The numerous electric outlets are well placed throughout & lighting is really good--both inside & outside! The USB outlets for charging electronics is a very functional feature! The Propane Aussie Grill is a nice size compromise for use & storage--buy an extended hose so it can be placed away from the RV & awning (the supplied one is only 3 feet long!). The awning is another great feature & is just a push button away ... terrific lighting on both sides of RV. Because of the rear slide out for the queen bed there cannot be a ladder attached to the back of the RV ... (we purchased a Telescoping 14' ladder (very compact for storage in back) to access the roof which has worked fine for us). The electronics/TVs/Sound system/inside & outside speakers/navigation/radio/etc. cover it all! We love our Mercedes Diesel Forrest River MBS RV & Eric Hodes & other employees at RVOne in Florida for their great assistance throughout our purchasing process & after! Thank You, Chuck & Mary Show less

Only had one week and not what we expected. Cabin area is so basic we are happy to have a light switch. The noise level while driving precludes conversation/radio. The cabinetry etc and outside storage are both great. Also, the "owner's manual" provided has nothing that matches our unit. The operator's manual for the MB chassis is difficult to understand because so much does not relate to our unit. So far we are disappointed with our purchase. Show less
