I loved this trailer! Although I'm a vintage guy and love things with style and character. But this is even better, style and vintage character, but its new! a Reissue, not a copy. Made by Shasta, based on the original plans. The propane oven is now a microwave, and the propane lamp over the dining table is now a bulb and the other lights are LED, but not too many other changes. An old couple walked by and looked, and said they used to won one and the only way they could tell it was not an original was the rooftop air vent was plastic instead of aluminum! I have memories of being a kid and this is just what I was looking for. When I go out all the other RV's all look the same, in fact near my site there were 2 that actually were the same as each other and every other RV had the same graphics. So boring! I was told, (and its true) "prepare to make friends as a lot of people will stop by your site and want to say hello and ask about your Shasta!" Shasta only made 1941 of these and there will be no more. So while the price will dip for a few years, these will always be in demand as opposed to the standard indistinguishable RV's that all look the same and once they get old nobody will ever want to keep them.

Because of the limited towing capacity of our vehicle the Shasta Compact 16RE was the perfect option. Campers with slide outs, longer lengths, and a dual axel were too heavy. I don't feel like I'm sacrificing anything with this camper. The bed is large, there is a lot of storage space, I like that it has a shower and a toilet. I wish it had a table but we opted for the model with a couch since we typically eat outside.

I understand this is the low end brand made by Forest River so I don’t expect it to live up to other brands. I do however expect some level of quality for the money. The interior panels are force fit and splitting in most areas. Both the 12 and 120 volt wiring had to be redone and actually had burnt connections! The compartments were full of sawdust, wire clippings, and tools. Many added on features such as shower curtain, shower wand, etc were screwed into thin paneling and loose. Some issues were grudgingly repaired under warranty but the majority were not. Repairs that have been made already need repairing. Good thing is we now know what to look for on our next purchase.

This is a heck of a fifth wheel for a full time living. I wouldn't say its built like a home but our family of 3 and pets have put this thing to the test as far as structural integrity and daily use. We've owned since March of 2022 and have not had any issues. The appliances have all worked, the electronics have all worked. Overall, we are very impresed. We keep it maintenance ourselves and it has paid dividends. We drain the black tank weekly, we take the AC covers off to clean them every 6 months or so, we have put out own sealant around the base of the sink pedestals, as we have noticed some swelling when the wood comes into contact with water but that is an easy fix. In the winter, we run the fire place space heater in the living room combined with two small space heaters and this keeps the unit at a perfect 70 degrees inside at night, even at 30 or below. The gas heater runs fine, we just dont like spending the propain. I would recommend to anyone like us looking for a temporary living solution to get us through a stretch on our land until we can build a house.

Great fifth wheel for big family! With two full bathrooms and two bedrooms, there is something for everyone in this motorhome! The private bunkhouse has a flip down bunk above a tri-fold hide-a-bed sofa across from a bunk, a wardrobe, and its very own full bathroom which even has an entrance/exit door to the unit. The front private bedroom has a queen bed with nightstands on either side, a wardrobe slide, and an area prepped for an optional washer and dryer to keep your clothes looking their best. The chef will love the kitchen island, but love cooking at the outside kitchen even more! Full time travel and we enjoy it 👌🏼

I purchased this 25RB because of the size, layout, and my past positive experience with Shasta, but it was a big mistake. I’ve owned a truck camper, a Shasta Phoenix 5th wheel in the 1990’s, and most recently a 2018 Viking trailer. I had zero problems with any of them, so when I wanted to go a little bit bigger, I traded in the Viking for the Shasta. The quality of this Shasta product has been horrible. The screws on the cupboard door handles have come out, the cupboard under the sofa doesn’t latch correctly, the dome on the light over the table fell off, the handle to the black water tank fell off, the ends of the bumper fell out, the city water connection leaks, but the most frustrating thing is the MATTRESS! It was used for a week and I can feel the boards underneath it. It has the same cover as my Forest River Viking, so I made the assumption they were the same. Wrong! Upon investigation I realized it is only fiberfill. What a joke! My dog’s bed has better filling! I’m so dissatisfied and the dealer who sold it at Dolney RV in Kawkawlin, MI told me to deal with Shasta because he just ”sells the things”. Dave Troxel, from Shasta , said if the vendor deems the mattress faulty, they will just replace it with the same inferior one. We tried to winterize it and now something else is wrong because it won’t pump in the antifreeze. I wish I would have read reviews before buying. The Shasta Company of today is not the same as the old top quality Shasta that started in 1941! Buyers Beware!

My wife and I purchased this Travel Trailer new in 2020 and have had very good success with it. There has been only one issue in the time that we have owned it. The awning would not deploy once, after working fine for quite a few trip. We contacted a dealer and they promptly repaired a wire that had come loose (from a poorly crimped connector) inside the channel. The warranty covered it and we incurred no cost or great inconvenience. The quality is adequate for the price range and it has good features and tows very easily with a 1/2 ton truck. We are happy that we purchased it as our first travel trailer.

We love the layout and interior finishes of our new Shasta, however there are a lot of parts that have been cheaply made or assembled. Our RV has already been in the shop a few times this year for warranty work. Our electric water heater board was faulty, our sink drains were not installed properly and caused leaks, and the seat backs of our dinette were not screwed in, causing tears in the fabric. The exterior shower was not assembled properly, so that was another leak we had to deal with. Our inside shower has recently started leaking from behind the insert and the siding has also separated from underneath the steps. Last night our heater stopped working, so we will need to bring it back for more warranty work. Although I love the camper, I am extremely disappointed in the quality of the assembly in the factory.

We didn't buy this trailer to fix it up and "flip" it. We fixed it up and took it camping, both rustic and glamping. Then we became disabled, so are selling it. Totally customized for the growing trend to "glamping," fabulous inside and outside. We added the following: Red aluminum diamond-plate front and sides. Awnings on side and back. Wonderful picture window on back--for viewing the stars or waking up to the sunrise. Checkerboard tile floor. Professional cushions. Enlarged bed area to queen and added Casper mattress. Barnwood and stamped metal trim. Appliances custom painted in turquoise,--stove, oven, refrigerator. New tires and wheels with less than 1000 miles, new deep-cell battery. Re-insulated walls with double insulation. Reworked hitch deck. Added propane bottles. Furnace, water pump, and refrigerator all working, but may need regular maintenance such as pilot cleaning. Electrical DC battery or AC power cord, internal water tank or external hose connection.
