Winnebago VISTA 35F reviews

We bought this RV new with the intent to live in it and travel continuously. It fulfilled its purpose perfectly. It provides all the essential features and functions that are required for full time living. The floor plan is nicely organized to enable full time living and to accommodate occasional visitors. Given a more generous budget to work with, we might have preferred a diesel pusher, but the Ford chassis and drive train never really disappointed. In 7 and a half years and 60,000 miles of travel, we never experienced a roadside failure. We intentionally wanted a shorter length for maneuverability and for access to locations which might have length restrictions. This model was ideal for achieving that objective and still providing a comfortable living space. All systems functioned as efficiently as we needed and expected. We never considered our travel as camping as we were connected to utilities virtually all the time. We essentially wanted a moveable apartment. This coach was well suited to our purposes and I would make exactly the same choice if I were in the market today. Show less

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

This model boast a lot of extras that make it such a great motorhome. Having the additional 1/2 bath in the living room came in handy! You are able to use the bathroom while traveling without having to open slides or jump over the master bed to get to the rear bathroom. It’s also great for guests so that they can use it without having to have them go through the bedroom to use the restroom. The elevated toilets are also a plus! The rear master bath is the entire width of the motorhome so you have plenty of space to get in and out of the shower and there is still plenty of extra room. The expandable sofa is great because you can leave it to allow for more space in the living room or you can expand it to allow for more seating. This model has black out roller shades with an additional shade on top of that, it’s great for keeping the heat out or keeping the light out when you want too. The master bedroom has plenty of cabinetry and drawers for all your things. The master bed has nightstands on both sides and you can walk all the way around the bed. The coach seats swivel to face the living room as added seats. It has 2 A/C units so you can run either or both Show less

I have owned this RV for ten years and my wife and I have enjoyed using it for trips to Colorado and to Georgia from our home near Houston. It is well equipped and very comfortable. It drives well and handles mountain passes adequately. It is roomy on the inside and the kitchen has everything you need. The back bedroom provides comfort and privacy and the sofa pulls out to a full size bed and the kitchen table converts to a kid's bed. The entire RV is well designed and well made. The Ford chassis is excellent. Show less

The Winnebago Vista 35F is an excellent value, combining quality components, versatility, and functionality at a reasonable price point compared to its competition. Besides offering all the usual amenities, it has exceptional storage capability for living or travel. Quality wood cabinets in the cabin and many large storage compartments underneath allow you to logically sort, separate and stow your gear, clothes and bath items. It is very comfortable and convenient for 1, 2 or even 3 adults, or 2 adults and 2 kids. More would be pushing it even though they claim it sleeps 6. It has a separate powder room or half bath for guests who don’t have to share the Master Bathroom for anything other than the shower. Tall people will appreciate the headroom in that large shower, btw. The outdoor entertainment system (TV and stereo system) is an added plus for living room-like viewing under the stars. All in all, I would consider the unit to be an excellent entry level Motorhome that most people would not feel the need to upgrade. Truthfully, I couldn’t submit this review without filling out all 5 rating star fields, and the last one about the factory warranty/support I averaged, because I never had to call them so I have no real idea.

Love the RV! 2 bathrooms just like home! Fireplace adds a nice touch and the refrigerator/freezer/ice maker is as large as our house unit. We use the bunk only when grandkids are with us! Outside entertainment center under the awning adds additional joy! The bedroom has plenty of closet and draw storage. In fact, we always pack to many clothes! The outside storage is quite ample too with a pass thru and other storage compartments. When needed the 2 AC's keep us at that perfect temperature and usually turn one off. This has a larger shower then our previous 30 Ft Jayco and one of the biggest I've ever seen! Show less

There are several reasons chose this RV. (1) it is a Winnebago and their reputation is solid. (2). The floor plan was what I needed. (3) The half bath was a huge plus—it made it easier for guests to have access to a bathroom that was not the primary bath. (4). I was not looking for a fireplace but this is huge bonus. It provides the perfect amount of warmth for the cooler evenings and mornings while wintering in FL. The basement storage of 154 square feet is extremely accommodating. I tow a 2014 Ford Edge (4500 lbs) behind the RV and it is amazingly smooth. Visibility when driving is extremely good. The 3-way camera is a huge asset. The coach is easy to drive and turns are not an issue. Establishing reference points for distance between front of coach and rear of the vehicle ahead was easy to establish after one trip around a semi-empty parking lot. Reference point for turning were equally as easy to establish. I have had only one warranty issue and Winnebago worked with my local RV maintenance repair man to get it corrected properly on the first attempt. There have been no other issues. If I did not need to downsize, this RV would not be for sale. No regrets with this MotorHome, Show less

When we first went FT, we bought a new Thor Ace. We had so many problems and Thor customer service didn't seem to care. We finally stopped our trip and drove all the way back to Florida from MA. The dealership tried to fix everything but the shoddy workmanship from Thor caused things to keep breaking. We traded it in after only 4 months for a Winnebago Vista LX 35F. What a difference!! The workmanship was so much better and customer service took care of any issues we had which were all minor. We had peace of mind knowing our new RV worked as it should and if it didn't we had a company who cared about our satisfaction. We love the floor plan, so much space, so much storage. We love the Vista LX!! We highly recommend it!! Show less

This is the best Class A we have owned.We have been RVing for 12 years and we have owned a few.The floor plan is great,the two bathrooms at first seemed to be overkill,but it later proved to be quite handy.The quality of this motorhome is quite good. Not one problem has arisen.We are overjoyed with our purchase. The only complaint we have is we would like to have a smaller couch and a recliner instead. Maybe in the future we may change this. But as for now we would not sell it for anything else. Show less

This is our third RV and haven\'t had one that handles and rides as well as this Winnebago The half bath is a wonderful addition and we lived the fireplace. We were surprised just h o w much heat it out out. In all honestly if it weren\'t for my medical conditions getting worse I would never sell it. Show less
