Keystone Bullet reviews

We wanted a travel trailer with bunks for our family of 4 and our 2 dogs. It's a great floor plan and space for a family. There's tons of storage. My only real complaint is that the bathroom is a bit tight and there is a corner cabinet that extends over the sink area making it impossible to lean over the sink to wash or brush teeth. We have had this unit for 2 years and have not had any major issues. One piece of pvc under the bathroom sink cracked causing a leak, but was easily replaced and fixed by my husband. Pieces of trim popped off here and there and we're easily reattached. NO major issues so far and we've taken this out dozens of times. We put 3 stars for factory/warranty support because we had to put aomething, but we have no knowledge of it having never used it. Show less

This is a great rv. I love the fact it has doors on all sleeping areas and bathrooms. The layout is great and makes it feel large inside. This has a curved high ceiling. There are two Ac units. The finishes make this travel trailer feel luxurious. It has outdoor shower and an outdoor kitchen. There are also solar panels that keep fridge cold all day long. Show less

In April of 2022 my wife and I traded in our 2016 Keystone Bullet travel trailer for a NEW 2022 Keystone Bullet 258RKS model....what a mistake! We were so excited about the beautiful floor plan and the new trailer for our family to enjoy camping at the beach and tailgating with friends and family (Penn State games and watching our daughter play field hockey at college). On our first trip out...the problems started...We arrived at our first camping spot to find the fridge latch broken and our food all over the floor! That was not the only issue on that trip...as we closed the awning prior to going out for dinner as a precaution (wind), the arm locked up and bent. We spent a few hours on the phone while on vacation trying to remedy all the issues. Our salesman encouraged us to continue to use the RV for the summer and bring in the unit for repairs at the end of the season (Do campers really have an end of the season?) As recommended by the dealer, we gave a list of all the issues with the RV (Awning, fridge frosting up, control panels falling off wall every time we drive unit, front corner cap looks like it was patched or not correctly sealed, kitchen table latch defective, etc.) We gave up our fall trips and dropped the unit off in September of 2022. We called the dealership to check on repairs through the winter...We picked up the trailer at the end of March 2023 and set out for our trips. From the first trip, in the new year we found issues again. The grey tank handle was missing when we went to empty our tank. The control panel would continue to come loose off the wall and need to be re-screwed after arriving at each destination. The fridge continues to frost up and we are constantly adjusting the temperature to ensure food stays cool. We also duct tape the fridge every trip b/c the latch is so cheap and not secure. It was the summer of 2023 that our trailer began having even more issues. The 258RKS is unique in that the slide out is on the picnic side of the camper. The slide is very close to the main entry door. We began to notice the difficulty of the entry door closing (even when the camper is perfectly level) with the slide out. Many heated talks of 'why are you slamming the door'? We also noticed our bathroom door and bedroom door not properly closing or securing (adjusted lock mechanism many times throughout the season). We closed the camper for the season in late October...winterized and covered. When we set out for our spring trips we noticed the entry door becoming more of an issue and found in late June of 2024 the wall between the slide and entry door moves tremendously when putting the slide in and out. We reached out to Keystone Manufacturing direct. They recommended us to bring in the trailer for service. We were unable to bring the unit in for service until September of 2024. However, at the end of July prior to going out on a family vacation we noticed some bubbling in the walls in the bedroom. (Severe leak and bubbling). We went on vacation and while camping also noticed the outside wall separating from the front cap trim. We again contacted Keystone manufacturing...they requested us to have the trailer evaluated once at the dealership in September. We traveled home with duct tape again on the outside of camper to ensure the side panel would not fly off the camper or become even worse in traveling down the road. The local dealership service department evaluated the trailer and determined a broken weld (near the entry door/slide area, also the leak and other issues). They determined that the trailer would need over 80+ hours of service repairs to fix. Keystone has granted only 20 hours of work...they are willing to authorize the repair of the broken weld, but nothing else. Keystone is stating that the leak and wall separation on the front cap area is customer neglect. That we should have ensured our camper was properly sealed. I truly believe the camper leak, wall separation is due to the wall shifting and weld break... Let me just state, my family and I take great pride in our vehicles and trailer. I continue to wash, clean, wax, inspect and ensure the our vehicles look good. My wife says I spend to much time cleaning and maintaining. I am sick having in my possession a trailer that is a little over two years old with such issues and problems. We spent a lot of money on this Keystone product and I am at a loss of words on how Keystone is not taking responsibility of such a poorly designed and manufactured product. If anyone has any advice or has similar issues with their Keystone trailer (2021-2023) units please don't hesitate to reach out to me....my personal email is jskish@hotmail.com. My family and I don't know what legal rights we have, but when we call Keystone customer services we get a new person each time and are never allowed to speak to upper management. Show less

Excellent Travel Trailer. This is perfect for majority of owners, high quality, and has everything needed. It is compact, yet capable to even live in! Excellent Floorplan that makes the most use of space. Easily driven using any half-ton truck. Show less

My wife and I purchased Keystone thinking we were getting a quality rv. We are sadly mistaken. It is the worst quality rv we have ever experienced. I highly recommend not buying any Keystone rv. We have an issue with a piece of trim over our slide out that appears to have been damaged during manufacturing and was patched and now their repair failed. Do not purchase a keystone product it is junk. Do yourself a favour and read reviews you will see how poorly built these units are. Show less

I discovered a flaw early after purchasing and Keystone sent the entire trailer back to their manufacturing plant, replaced the entire floor, and sent it back to me. I will never own any other RV brand - Keystone stole my heart. A+ company. We love the RV! Show less

We have used our Colt now for 5 years. Very happy with the layout. Washroom is accessible without opening the slide so we can use it at roadside stops easily. I like the narrow design for towing with our suv. Great features are the TV and radio. Microwave with convection oven. Kitchen has lots of counter space for a small trailer. Quality is good structurally and we have had no water leaks as reported by some owners. On the down side the finish is a little cheap especially on headliner trim where the vinyl covers wrinkle. The use of space could be much better. I modified upper cabinets in kitchen to make access easier. And added a second drawer below where vacant space was not used. There is large wasted space below the bed. If the wiring and plumbing was better planned there would be a large locker space accessible from inside. Poor water line installation in the washroom vanity uses most of the space. For the sake of a few elbows. I might redo this also. Question? Why would the black tank flush line need to run thru this vanity? Overall we are very happy with our Colt. Small enough to tow easily and enough space and features for a couple and 2 dogs. Show less

We loved this camper but found when we traded it in for our 38 ft Rockwood the floor had rotted quite a way into the back of the camper so were happy we traded it when we did. It had plenty of room for the 5 of us in our family. We traded it for a larger camper so we could spend more time living in the new camper as the 24 ft would've somewhat cramped to spend too much time in it. Show less

Pros: Half Ton towable, affordable. Cons: The construction quality. All the trim is falling off. Staples aren’t fully hammered in. Silicone is the wrong color. One of the recliners broke, it was stapled together, the A/C to D/C converter stopped working and had to be replaced, MULTIPLE water leaks at the city water connection, the shower, the toilet, the water heater. The dinette table wabbles and won’t be staying long. This is a brand new camper and within the first year of owner ship it has been a constant project. I would not recommend buying this new Show less

Loved the layout BUT Keystone products are terrible. The craftsmanship and quality of their products are garbage. Shelly who is a keystone manager, never returns calls and avoid you at all costs. We bought the trailer at Camping World and the have been great, working with us and doing what they can. Thank you for that! I would NEVER EVER recommend a Keystone product and I know so many others who are also having major problems with their Keystone. The product and company don’t care about you after you buy it and that sucks. Never buy a Keystone but definitely go to Camping World for a purchase of another trailer. Show less
