Forrest River Park Model reviews

Where to start is the real question? Okay so i bought my place in October 2 weeks in the slide out started leaking and finally got that addressed poor caulking was the cause plus my washer feels like its going to shake the place apart. So after that about a month in another slide out starts leaking the repair guy told me there wasnt any caulking at all then told me he caulked around the window that i need to watch in carefully he was worried about it that was all in the first month fast forward to the present time my washer still isn't fixed my shower head is leaking my bathroom faucet is leaking and to top the cake there is a large amount of mold under my bed that i just found not to mention it looks put together like a 5 year old did it cheap crappy materials and they charge 73000 for this i am so displeased and unhappy with my purchase but was basically told i am sh*** out of luck i could trade it in but i wont get what i paid this was a mont after buying because it deprecated in value i live in this with my 2 boys and ol lady we have a baby coming possibly next week and i have mold where were gonna sleep worst purchase i ever made but like i was told i am stuck with it Show less

Terrible quality and support Such cheap materials and lack of quality workmanship Absolutely zero pride at assembly Steer clear They look great andcwell laid out Thats the only positive Its just not my unit Everybody i talk to with a Firrest River product tells me the same story Pretty sad Show less

Walls are not insulated well with large amounts of insulation missing. Bathroom fan not vented, dead ended underneath between insulation and ceiling panel. A/C unit that came with unit cannot cool Park Model, unit is large enough but it is really inefficient being placed underneath Park Model. Screws missing in dresser draw mounting brackets, screws found on floor. Brackets were stapled with air gun and came out, but dresser on other side were screwed properly. Very low quality light switches and plugs, on/off switch for water heater started on fire and melted. Bought this unit new and tried ti get a response from Forest River but finally gave up. They obviously have a poor quality of work and not much of quality control. Buyer beware or be prepared to have a low quality unit. Show less

I am new to the RV market. I’m very excited about my purchase of the Forest River Timberwolf 16ML. I’m very happy. I’m very satisfied for the unit. I’m single and I’m an over the road trucker. I’m not home much. It’s definitely a starter. It’s considered a destination trailer. You don’t want to travel around with this big black box with a porch. My only problem is I was naïve with the paperwork. They penciled me in at $35,000. I put $8000 down. And somehow the finance company saying I owe $49,000 right now to pay it off. I didn’t know what I was doing. I was just happy with the payment. Plus, I needed a place to live. Show less

We bought this RV brand new and almost everything has gone wrong with it. Grey water tank cracked. Hot water and heater both went after only a year. Toilet started running water non stop had to replace it. All the pluming has leaked and had to be fixed. There is so many defects it would take me to long to write them all. This RV is so poor quality I wish we did not buy it. The last straw for me was when our bedroom floor was so soft we thought we were going to fall through. We got the repair guy in and he said it was probably leaking and it would be a 4,000 to repair. When he lifted the floor he found that there was no leak and they had put thin veneer board down. Not meant for floors. Do not buy Forest River you will regret it. Show less

The Grand View is the worst money that we have spent on any camping equipment. Forest River is hard to get payment for warranty work that has to be done, and believe me, there has been more problems with this camper than any we have owned. Be smart and stay clear of this poorly made camper. It is not worth half of what they sale for. Show less

Horrible. Anyone who buys a Forest river product must be insane. I wish someone would have written the review I am writing now prior to my purchase. As a Berkshire Hathaway shareholder I was excited to purchase from one of our companies. This thought was a mistake. The plywood floor on the slide out is about to fall in and their customer service is horrible. 1 year warranty??? No wonder. Berkshire should sale this company immediately before a class action lawsuit happens. I would not recommend purchasing any forest river products. You will be sorry very soon after purchasing. I actually feel sorry for dealers selling their products. This company will probably not be in business much longer given the poor quality of materials and workmanship. I will send pictures to anyone who wants to see them. Show less

I have hade several issues with the Sandpiper 401 that I bought last year. The black water tank has been leaking since I bought the trailer., and is still leaking . The wall in the bedroom came loose from the studs. The awning arm was broken. The backsplash in the kitchen came loose from the wall. The screen door on the sliding door was 5 “ too short. The trailer is used as a summer home and is in a pole barn. I am currently dealing with the smell of the black water tank leaking in my floor. The dealer has been here 5 times to deal with it and the last time they were hear the installed a new one. It is leaking just as bad, and the wall is coming loose from the studs in the hall. I’m not a happy customer by any means! Wish I hadn’t bought this piece of shit. Show less

I'm going to keep this review short. Om currently renting this trailer from the owner. Its set up on a on concrete residential backyard slab. Ots is the absolutely worst built piece of garbage you could buy. At over 100k to purchase brand new the amout of poor craftsmanship is appalling. The cabinets are so cheaply made, the floor is bowing and buckling on the bathroom and the insulation is almost non existent. In my life I've owned 7 RVs from truck campers to a class A motorhome so I'm giving my honest opinion. This trailer series is disgustingly built with only profits in mind and not the consumer.
