Winnebago Sunstar LX reviews

We purchased this rv from Blue Compass in Newtown Ct 7/20 24 and still haven’t received it. Apparently multiple problems with it but they just apologize as we lost our summer with it. We canceled 2 vacation homes tho we would have our dream rv. Everyone from the bottom up lies . I warn you stay away from Blue Compass Newtown Ct Show less

We have traveled long distance and camped near in lovely campgrounds. This rig is easy to set up - I am 62 yr old female (this is our first Rv) I am able to set up by myself. All the systems are easy to use. The manual is helpful. It has storage space galore - honestly way more than a person needs unless you choose to be a full timer. The tv antenna picks up a number of channels and the dvd players work great. Nice for a couple and a couple of children or grands. Show less

Love the idea of Rving but don't love the idea of a 40 ft-er? This Vista is the perfect size that gives plenty of room, all the amenities needed and a comfortable place to dwell whether you are parking it or driving cross country. It is great at cooling and wonderful for heating. Hot water is pretty instant. Loads of storage within and under the unit. Setting up is a breeze. Show less

Winnebago is a standard for the RV industry. They have been around forever and make a good quality product. The cabinetry is beautiful and for a moderately priced class A motorhome, you get a lot for you money. This particular vehicle has a new engine with only 13000 miles on it due to a bad oil change done by and independent company. They replaced the engine at their cost. This particular unit has new a/c and batteries throughout. They have kept all the repair receipts and also have a vin checkup showing the unit has never been in an accident. Show less

Let's start with acknowledging that this was my very first RV and I had very limited driving experience and zero with owning an RV. I did my research and determine that the class A would be our best. We had just sold everything we owned and we were now going to be full time RVers. After looking at everything from fixer uppers to almost like new, we could easily see the quality difference in the Winnebago Vista LX. We looked at cabinets, door hinges, floor plan and ease of use. By far, it was the best. We have now had our Vista for almost 3 years and still love it. Being in the automotive business all my life, we did some things right away. The RV only had 18,00 miles on it when we purchased it, but I put all new Koni shocks on and steer stabilizer. For a newbie, it drove great. I also had 3 part fuel injection service done (gas engine) and use Amsoil . I do have an advantage over some owners. I'm mechanically inclined so prefer to fix things myself. I suspect that the major frustration owners have is dealing with the service dept. at any dealer. Competent mechanics are few and far between. I owned a shop for 1/2 my life and can fix most minor problems. Overall we are thrilled with our Vista LX and for a small RV, it has one of the best floor plans we have seen. Show less

We have had numerous RVs and this one fit our needs the best. It is small enough to fit into many state and federal parks and large enough for our comfort. It is easy to setup and pack up. It is easy to drive in town and on the highway. Advancing age has determined that it is time to sale. Show less

Pristine condition, easy to drive, simple to set up and to take down. Spacious on the inside yet only 28’ long, so qualifies for most federal, stare, and local campground size limits. Perfect rig for a couple and two kids or grandkids. Show less

Superb layout. Love the bunkhouse layout with 2 bunk beds plus an extra over-the-cabin bunk. Tons of storage and outside entertainment! It has served our family well, it really is the perfect motorhome for a family of 5! Show less

We moved from a small Forest River C into this small Winnebago A last year. We couldn't be happier with our choice. This RV has a great floor plan, with a couch facing the dinette; the very comfortable cabin chairs turn to complete the living area. For sleeping, there's the huge king-sized bed or the Euroloft drop down bed. The dinette and couch also turn into beds for a total of 7 sleeping spots. The bathroom features a large shower and plenty of storage, including a corner medicine cabinet, a vanity, and a bonus drawer in the side wall. For entertainment, there's a TV over the dinette, a tv in the bedroom, and an exterior TV for watching under the awning. For meals, there is a large fridge, an oven and a microwave. Storage is a huge strength for this RV. The class A means a lot of basement storage. The interior matches that generosity of space by including storage in drawers under the bed, a closet with two drawers below in the bedroom, and cabinets overhead all along the ceiling. The difference in quality between a Winnebago and the others is pretty obvious. In the year we've had it, we've been very pleased at the lack of little annoying issues. If I were in charge of designing these RV's, I would add more counter space and widen the pantry cabinets. I also wonder why we have to plug into the generator when we need to use it. But those complaints pale when compared to the impressive quality and the wonderful floorplan. Show less
