Forest River IBEX 19QBS reviews

DO NOT BUY THIS TRAILER. ALMOST EVERYTHING HAS BROKE ON IT IN THE 2 YEARS SINCE I BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW. NEVER SEEN A MORE EXPENSIVE PIECE OF JUNK. LOW QUALITY!!! I CAN NOT SAY ENOUGH BAD THINGS ABOUT HOW INCREDIBLY SORRY THIS TRAILER IS, IT IS A SHAME THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR A BRAND NEW BROKEN HUNK OF JUNK. FOREST RIVER SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF THEIRSELVES.

I purchased the 2022 Ibex Qbs 23ft travel trailer last August in 2021. I love the floor plan and have used it many times since I got it. It pulls easy as it has rubber semi independent suspension. I love the slide out and the walk around real 60x80 bed. I did replace the rock hard bed it came with. Now the disappointing part of the camper is the very poor quality of workmanship. I had the front fiberglass Crack after only 2months and I never took it off road. Since the fiberglass cap cracked 7 months has past and forest river has only recently agreed to replace the front cap however I don't know how much longer it will take to get the sheet sent out my dealer. Bish Rv has been most helpful in trying to get it fixed. I also have a warped door which has to be replaced and an power inverter which won't turn off. The waterheater had to be fixed plus the couch in the slideout tilts. I also had to caulk spots on the roof before the roof might leak, it has not leaked because I fixed it right away. Like I said I love the layout it's just the quality of the workmanship was really sloppy. Unless you are prepared to be patient you should buy a different brand. My dealership which is Bish Rv in Urbana, IA treated me so fairly and nicely it doesn't make all the issues quite so bad. Show less

I purchased this 2022 Ibex 19qbs 23ft camper in,last August and I really love the floor plan. It pulls really smoothly and I even camped out in really cold weather in Southern Minnesota (-15) and was warm enough. I really like the slideout as it gives you 4ft of width in the middle of the camper. The real queen bed was immediately replaced,as it was so uncomfortable but being 60x80 was easy to replace. It is really quiet inside as the insulation is real good plus it has azdel so it won't rot under the fiberglass skin. The large fridge and air conditioner are real nice features plus the glass shower doors are nice. Now to the negatives. The quality of construction is pretty solid however parts are put together pretty sloppy. After owning the camper for less than two months two different areas of the front fiberglass skin cracked for no reason. Forest river didn't want to pay for repair, however after talking to them personally a number of times they have agreed to replace the front piece. The only problem is that was like 3 months ago! The dealer hasn't been able to get Forest River to answer their e-mails to start the repair process. The customer service at Ibex is terrible. I also have a water heater which no longer works and rust already on the frame which I will have to fix myself. Also the couch which folds down is tilting toward the floor not level so I will probably fix it myself. Lastly they only put one strut under the bed to hold it up when accessing understorage. With the fit and finish issues make sure to purchase from a good dealer like Bish RV who will stand behind the product. Show less

Do not buy this trailer, piece of literal junk, I have a very long list of warranty issues, pieced together, and falls apart. I bought this brand new, sight unseen due to extreme circumstances. I made a huge mistake...Please do not venture in the direction of this trailer. Buyer Beware! Show less
