I am throwing our hat in the ring for serious water leak issues. There were no indications of water leaking as it occurred under the flooring, but our sub floor under the toilet and shower are rotted. This must have been occurring over time when we bought the trailer and wasn't evident until now when I almost fell through the floor this spring when starting to de-winterize. The water damage extended all the way from the bathroom at the back of the trailer to beyond the dinette near the door. Insurance won't cover anything, so now we have a giant piece of junk in our driveway that we are still paying for. It will cost us thousands of dollars to fix the issues and reinstall everything.

Tows easy, easy to clean outside with smooth sides and roof. Seals are excessive on the roof. Seems to be quality built as have not trim or screws falling out. My major complaint is the toilet is too close to the vanity in the bathroom. Crawling over your mate to go to the bathroom while sleeping is inconvenient as well. Only reason i gave Warranty/support a 3 was I never needed any support and I bought it used. My sixth camper overall.

DO NOT BUY VENTURE RV PRODUCTS!!! Brand new RV and TOTAL GARBAGE!! I've owned my 2022 for less than a year and the roof has separated at the corner and caused extensive water damage. Potentially a total loss and I still have it financed. Venture won't return my calls and dealership is saying it's a bad seal and they are only warranty covered for 90 days. Insurance says it's wear and tear. I am now out 39,000, have no rv, and need to find an open space to set it on fire!! I've owned a trailer or motor home for 25 years and have never seen such poor construction with such a hefty pricetag!!

After living in the trailer for a year, I've found so many flaws and outright construction mistakes that I could watch it burn and have no regrets. The front axle bent somehow I can't run the water heater on propane because it sets off the carbon monoxide detector. Solved by switching to propane. The glass cover for the stove shattered between sites. Not being able to find a replacement, I waited to be in a site I knew I'd be in for a while and ordered one, doing the replacement myself. The latest is the slideout. Operation is come and go. It drags the floor, snaps and makes loud bangs. Again, I'll have to wait till I'm in a place I intend to be for a while and get someone to repair it. Had I known how cheaply this trailer was built, I wouldn't have bought it.
