Forest River 291RL reviews

Bought brand new at 68,000. The AC units blew the first month after a few uses. The sink brokek. The pipes snapped under sink. Then fauct broke apart. Black tank clogged and would not empty correctly. Sludes are stuck out. Replaced all fuses. Replaced motherboard. Replaced propane regulator because it leaked. Living room floor vinyl was torn upon delivery. On and on. Now AC doesnt work at all. Lights dobt work. Fuses blew. Upgraded panel at recommendation of tech sent by Camping World. Id never ever recommend this camper to anyone. It has been a headache from literally the day of delivery and on. I tried to return it eithin the first 30 days but dealership wanted me to pay them to do so. Honestly if it caught fire from the AC units overheating id not be sad. Show less

We purchased out of state for a large discount on a Unit that we ordered from a customer wholesale dealer. We had it delivered to our property for a reasonable $. When I went in to sign off I found the stackable WD tilted on the bed. Being out of range I found an Authorized repair shop I had them inspect it to find dryer hose snapped, improper clamp down, pulled out hoses. Opening bed platform to storage pass thru holding cylinders won’t hold it up Severe injury possible. One of the slides will not seal when out. Mattress is 2 two inch fiber pads which collapses when you use it TV picture dead showing colored stripes, ac vent door fell off screws missed frame to attached, Sliding windows need the Hulk to open and close ,Shower roll up door leaks all over floor and the UNDERBELLY IS. NOW FILLED WITH BLACKWATER REPAIR SHOP COMING THIS WEEK There was no way of finding these items on delivery, real good at putting lipstick on the pig Show less

Looked great when I saw it a few yrs ago..regreat buying it..2021 artic wolf 291RL..floor spongy, ac flow horriable..headboard pulling away from bed and cabinets exposing staples..poorly put together..scraping my hands while I sleep and huge gap between bed and front of trailer...lost a pillows down there...warranty won't fix it..not surprised!!!!...it's their poor workmanship that caused it not me, so they said to deal with it.

Me and my wife purchased a brand new 2021 model from Camping World (a screw up story for another time). Since we’ve had it I have had nothing but issues with plumbing. I use water pressure regulators etc. I have had to replace all the squeeze clamps on the water lines with screw clamps. Since I purchased after 6 months I noticed I had water dripping on the ground what appeared to be my pull handle seals. After already having put it in the shop for outdoor shower pipes and the lack of professionalism with the dealer I decided I would do the work myself. I did and it appeared to of held up a little bit with a much much slower drip. I thought that maybe the seal didn’t line up correctly. After making it back down south (1yr later) I decided I had the time and tools to fully replace the seals properly and not have to have a bucket underneath it catch. I did that and the leak appeared to not get any better. Took it to the dealership for repairs and the tech accused me of having been in an accident and it missed aligned the pipes. I’ve never been in an accident with it and how could they just become misaligned. Seems to me that this is just a faulty RV with the constant issues with pipes. So much has happened and we’ve decided that we will never own another Forest River product ever again. We will also never purchase from Camping World nor ever use their service department again either. Show less

Forest River quality has been great. Everything on my Fifth wheel has operated great, I have had NO problems. I do have an 12v refrigerator with 50-watt solar panel and have never had a problem keeping it cold while driving over 11hrs. I have also added a second battery myself for reliability!! I have also changed the original tires to Goodyear Endurance, so I have no blow outs. My wift loves the room. Show less
