FOREST RIVER reviews

Have had nothing but trouble with this $100,000 piece of crap. Have to use a stick to push feces down the ledge under the toilet. Marvelous! They told me to grease it up and use more water to flush. Great for dry camping, right? First time we pulled it onto a campsite we had no hot water. Couldn’t get any help from the dealership to correct until 3 weeks later. Now we’re here 2years later and we have no hot water again. It was fine before we left to get here . If someone built a house like this they would be sued Show less

Awesome for full time living. If you are looking to go fulltime RVing, then this is what you want. All the amenities and bells and whistles. Pulls great and the storage is second to none, room to carry everything we need without filling the truck up. Love it. Show less

Great Class C RV for a budget friendly price. For under 100k I don't think there is any other Class C on the market with this many features at this size and quality. The ability to comfortably sleep 8 is a win/win. The Godzilla Ford engine carries this RV smoothly down the road and with it's larger size it's still easy to maneuver into spots. Show less

One day after the camper was set on our permanent spot we noticed the floor was separating. My husband called the dealer and someone came to look at it. The only thing that the warranty would allow for repairs was to sand the plywood section that was sticking up. The repair man said that the plywood was actually breaking apart, but Salem won’t replace it. We now have two other spots in our floor that are doing the same thing. In addition to this, the shelving in the pantry is falling apart and the shelves are falling. We only have spices on these shelves. This camper is a year old. Disappointed in the quality of this camper, and incredibly disappointed in the lack of cooperation with the warranty. Show less

I purchased the 2022 Forest River Ozark in the summer of 2022 and was so excited. Off the lot at Camping World, it was a beautiful well-appointed travel trailer and we enjoyed our first camping trip very much. It was an easy light weight camper to tow with our Ford F-150 2.7 engine. I've kept this camper covered and clean at all times since pretty much the moment we purchased it. We live and camp mostly in South and Mid-Florida and on the second day of camping it rained and I noticed a small leak in the front interior seem near the head of the bed. I went to ACE and picked up a sealing caulking and caulked all that I could reach without a very tall ladder hoping that would fix the problem, but it didn't. I used RV Seem tape and that seemed to fix the front leak. On our third trip only 7 month after buying the camper and keeping it stored with a cover on the top, we noticed small stains on the interior roof as if rusty nails are slightly showing through on the ceiling. We noticed after about 9 months of having the camper, every cabinet covering that looks like wood finish was starting to peel at the edges. Also, we noticed that the vent fan switch was broken and we had no way of turning the vent fan off, so I replaced the switch myself. On the same camping trip, I pulled the top kitchen drawer out without any aggressive pulling and the whole drawer and left side track came out ripping out the screw through the front facia of the cabinet. We took the camper out for another trip June 5th, 2024 and when attaching it to my truck and inspecting it, I notice the front glass of the microwave was on the ground, luckily it didn't break. I was able to use automotive double-sided tape to re-attach it. On this same trip, we noticed something flapping in the mirror and realized that the awning, only 2 years old, was tearing off of the wall side attachment on the front and back of the camper. June 28th, 2024, I loaded some small lightweight bags of chips into the pantry shelf and the entire shelf collapsed while we drop to the Florida Keys to camp. I also noticed the small thin shelf behind the chaise lounge couch is starting to collapse and I don't put or store anything heavy on this shelf and typically put hats on it or maybe my cup of coffee on it. I also notice some small cracks on the counter tops near the corners and that the covering is lifting off the at the outside edges of the MDF board underneath. I love the layout of this camper and it is very comfortable for a couple, but the materials and construction of the camper are terrible. And to top it off, I wasn't able to get a call back from Camping World's warranty or repair department even though I have left multiple voicemails and messages. I probably won't buy a Forest River ever again, because my brother has a Forest River and he has had a lot of similar problems too. Show less

We've had our RV for just over a year now never had any problems with it at all. It pulls good. I love the self-leveling one push of a button and it sets the whole trailer up for you. Very nice. The air conditioning has worked great and we've had no trouble with any of the appliances, it's actually a forest river impression 315 MB Show less

The 2021 Forest River Rockwood Mini Lite 2511S has been an excellent RV value. The rear-bathroom and front-bedroom floor plan makes for the perfect couples trailer. Two slide-outs: bedroom closet and entertainment center dual recliners. Super comfortable queen-sized bed. It travels well over the road—and because it’s so light (5,492 lbs. dry weight)—you can take it on long road trips without staggering fuel bills. Some people have commented about quality . of various features are built and outfitted on Forest River RVs, and I do understand that point of view. However, my experience with my 2021 Forest River Rockwood Mini Lite 2511S has not been degraded by low-quality components, design, or workmanship. This RV is well-made and built for affordability. If you’re in the market for a fun, comfortable RV in the $30K to $40K price range, I recommend you look at the 2021 Forest River Rockwood Mini Lite 2511S travel trailer. Show less

Awesome camper that I lived out of for three years in Montana. I will miss it. The experience was like no other. My wife, my dog, and myself all made it together almost two years and allowed us to explore Montana while living cheaply and simple. Show less

My husband had the idea of us living in an RV while building our house. Honestly I was not crazy about the idea. Then I saw this RV and my response, "That I could do!" This RV is so very nice and spacious. The refrigerator is huge compared to others I've seen. Plus it has a large freezer space too. The shower is full size and we installed a washer/dryer. The TV is so nice and large and the seats are very comfy. We lived in this RV for over a year. Whether you are wanting something for fun weekend trips, or something more long term, you've got it right here! Show less
