Forest River Blue Ridge reviews

The floorplan is perfect, and the camper has plenty of room. However, for the cost, the product is made with poor quality material. Our camper is a 2018 and was not used very often until last year. The up/down (not rollout) windows came apart last year, they aren't covered by the extended warranty or the manufacturer. The skylight above the bathtub is cracked and water is leaking in, not covered because it's caused by the sun. How is it possible that a sky light isn't made well enough to standup to the weather.

We had a wonderful experience our fifth wheel. Floor plan works well, with kitchen in the back. No problems with towing and not to long. We did change the bathroom door moving the hinges to the opposite side. Bathroom has a big walk in shower and a walk in closet. Show less

We bought this fifth wheel new in 2016 and have lived in it in Colorado, Texas and Arizona. It has been so comfortable for the 2 of us in all kinds of weather. We have had very little problems with it in the 5 years we have owned it. Living almost full-time in it we have only had to replace a faulty propane alarm and a toilet (our fault)all under warranty. With a lot of grandchildren and ranch worker traffic, the floors still look brand new and carpets too. We pulled it to Yellowstone and every trip it has pulled like a dream. Show less

We bought our Blue Ridge used and we fell in love with it instantly. We recently purchased a new 5th wheel but it was not a Blue Ridge. BIG MISTAKE We just needed to update the old one. We have only had the new one for a couple of months and regretted it. We really miss our Blue Ridge and we hope we can replace it with a new one. Show less

Love the floor plan, hate all the problems. In the first year replaced kitchen faucet spray head and circuit breaker. Black water and gray water handle/cable system has been in repair shop every year after about third time camping. Fresh water is getting into potable water tank even though we have it on city water. Frustrating to have so many problems with such a costly camper Show less

My buddy and I both bought the blue ridge 3780lf and have had issues from the first camping trip. Water leaking from a.c. into room. Ladder inside and the roof ladder both broke. Hydrolics don't work most times.bed has sagged from no support from the first trip. Had to have pantry door replace because the drawers inside wouldn't lock and chipped the door up bad. Water leaked into camper when tried to flush tanks out. And both a.c. are short cycling .Slide out seals are ripping and warranty is a joke to get repaired timely had to wait 4 months with no camper and still didn't fix everything . never will I buy from them again !

We had nothing but trouble,microwave went out furnace quit the slides were built wrong and had to be completely removed and walls and frames redone slides above the wheels have a thin liners that easily takes and exposes wood parts forest river declines to help any at all.the repair shop said it was faulty from the factory .I would not buy any thing from them this was suppose to be there top of the line they make them look nice but they are very poorly built units. It is a blue Ridge and there has been others with the same problems. STAY Away !!! Show less

I purchased this unit Spring 2014,delivered to campground by Dealer. Used it 5 weekends. 2015 Used it less than 5 weekends,sick family member. Unit was never moved. Fall 2015 moved to another Campground 165 miles away, winterized and stored there. Spring 2016, Main TV died,Bathroom faucet had to be replaced,Shower Head had to be replaced, valve on Bath Grey Water Tank has to remain open,if closed it leaks into the insulated & closed underbelly. My opinion,it's JUNK... Show less

We purchased what may have been the first 2016 3025RL to roll off the assembly line. It's a beautiful machine, nicely finished and very comfortable. We opted for the queen instead of king-sized master bed for extra walking room and a nice night table on one side. The moveable island in the living area works for us, especially when the sofa bed is opened. We experienced one signficant problem: a shower knob connection inside the shared bathroom/bedroom wall leaked during our first extended trip. This required an onsite RV repair tech to cut a hole in the wall to repair the joint. Forest River covered the full cost of the onsite repair and our dealership fixed the wall upon our return home. I could complain about the dealership's turnaround time for the repair, but Forest River certainly treated us well. Over the last year and a half, several minor problems have bee discovered and resolved. We are very happy with the Blue Ridge and expect to enjoy it well into the future. Show less
