Forest River Forrester reviews

I have owned this RV since it was New in 2015. Nothing but good things to say about this model. Workmanship and reliability are excellent. The only problem I have had was with the generator. Company recommends regular gas but it contains water/alcohol which is bad for the generator. Had it rebuilt and now use premium gas and generator starts every time. The leveler system stopped once but the company sent the new part/circuit board fedex and it was up and running in 2 days. Everything else has worked perfectly I would buy another except I am 85 and need knee replacements so my RV days are over. I regularly tow a Jeep Rubicon with no trouble. Show less

I bought a Forest River Forrester designed and built at this location. Paid $87,500.00 for it brand new. This was just before COVID 19 went wild. We ended up not using the RV A SINGLE TIME over a period of 4 1/2 years due to COVID and then several family emergencies. During that time I took excellent car of the RV, according to all instructions and even changed the oil every six months. The RV had 1.244 miles on it (trips to have regular preventative maintenance done at certified dealers) when I went to trade it off. The most I could get for this never used RV was 51.200.00 due to a leaking roof (it was undercover most of the 4 year period) and other degrading issues (I was told) due to poor manufacturing. RV building practices may have changed since I bought mine in 2019 but I doubt to the extent these problems are all addresses. Buy your next RV through a different brand. My experience was an absolute disaster. Show less
