We have loved this 5th wheel. It has been completely reliable and we hauled it from north Idaho to central coast of California and then to Sw FL where we have been stationary. Nothing has fallen apart, no tire mishaps and we all fit comfortable with the extra half bath, 15ft garage, tons of storage and pantry! The only issue we had was our refrigerator not working which we promptly got swapped out. Maybe we got lucky but literally nothing fell apart, no leaks, nothing. It’s been great!

Bought the unit new in August and already have a issue with the fiberglass side starting to bubble with air behind it. Found a large cut in the flooring and the tank valves are really hard to pull. Called the dealer and they say it needs to go back to factory so I call the support and they said no it needs fixed at a dealer that it has a water leak causing the issue. I say BS because its only been out from under the shelter once since we brought it home. If its has a leak then it leaked before we picked it up. The service stinks the rv is way over priced for what the quality is also. This is a XLR Hyper Lite 3212

Bought it used this summer 42 1/2 foot toy hauler. Beautiful unit, other than a couple burned outside lights everything is still working great. Pull great with my F250.
Some issues I have read is more not understanding or doing walkthrough of your RV. Camping World did a complete walk though with us and made sure everything worked before I picked it up.
Love our camper

I just wanted to add a little something I just read another review on a forest river nitro toy hauler 36t15. I also every time I take my toy hauler anywhere find 2 to 5 bolts nuts screws on the floor every single screw every single bolt fell out of my back bench seating area we also have 1 inch air gap‘s around the back door I’ve found bolts that fell off the cabinet trimwork is falling off almost every direction in the trailer bedroom door trim we had to use spare tire we let the spare tire down with the tools they give us it’s plastic octagon shape stripped out the very first time I used it I opened up the tube where you put your sewage hose the door snapped off the very first day I wish I opened every door every closet tried every single thing before I spent $87,000 on this trailer thank God for my dealer he has fixed almost every problem we had and they told me they never turned anything in for warranty of course nuts and bolts I replaced they use these drill tip self tapping screws that hollow out the hole and then the bolts just fall right out

We loved our Nitro! The only issue in 2 years was a window shade. The overall build quality was good, cabinets solid, and everything worked. The only livability issue was the height of the cabinets-needed a step stool. The look and feel of the interior was very nice. We did order with every option available which was nice, the auto level was great and now spoiled. We did order in 2016, and have since discovered that this model was not made in 2017, so there are probably very few out there. I will stay a forest river fan, this is our second.

Bought it, brought it home, first rain storm had water leak in the roof, it's at the dealer now 3 weeks not in the shop yet!. Haven't got to use it. The initial walkthrough was poor, the literature that come with the unit is not good, none of it gives instruction on how to work things. When the slide is in you can't get to the toilet. I bought it at an RV show the saleman didn't tell me it was last year's model, dummy me didn't think to ask, if I ever get to use the thing maybe I'll be happy, but right now I am not.
