Winnebago View Class B+ reviews

For the use I needed it for it was perfect. I can no longer use it because my husbands health prevents me for traveling. I have show dogs and travel all over the U.S.A. and Canada showing my dogs. For me it is perfect as my dogs are not welcome in all hotels. Show less

Ample storage is available in the many storage areas and cherry colored cabinets. The kitchen has a three-burner stove, convection oven/microwave, counter space, and good size sink for washing dishes. There are pantry-type overhead cabinets over the dinette. There is additional interior storage under both dinette benches and under the rear bed. The refrigerator works well and stays cold on both propane or electric. Show less

Having owned a 2005 Airstream Sprinter conversion and putting over 90K miles on it with 0 problems, I wanted to have a little more room, and since Airstream doesn't offer slide outs,I bought a new 2013 Winnebago View. Had it less than a year and took a real bath on trade in but could not live with the many poor quality and design issues + Winnebago's awful warranty service. Just a few of the problems that cropped up in the 1st 3 months-- counter tops delaminated. cheap drawer and storage compartment floors bowed and separating from frame. Cheap trim moldings coming off. Tank fill switch so cheap that the handle broke on first use. Very poor under bed storage access--no bar to hold bed base up + not finished off inside. No transfer switch switch from generator to shore power--you have to go to outside to small door in back and reach into unlighted compartment to try to plug shore power plug into gen. receptacle (try it at night in rain) The cheapest TV I have seen in any RV + ugly and cheap mount. Kitchen water faucet cheap and leaky from the start. Mylar spring loaded shower door that has no positive catch to hold it open--slightly touching it results in it snapping back into holder. numerous other quality and design issues that are outrageous on a $130,000 vehicle. Sprinter part was excellent. Winnebago insisted I take it to dealer that was over 70 miles from me in the middle of nowhere requiring me to have someone follow me there to bring me back and then take me back out there to pick it up--this when there are several qualified RV repair facilities within a 10 mile radius of me. As a comparison, Airstream authorized me to take the Interstate anywhere of my choice and send them the bill on the few minor issues when I first got the vehicle + there were no more problems the 5 years and 90K+ miles I put on it--not even a loose screw! This Winnebago was my 6th RV--all 5 of the others put together didn't have as many problems as this View had. Show less

Very easy to drive, plenty of power for mountains. Easy to maneuver in town. Very good overall mileage considering the size. Every convenience provided and easy to set up at campground. Livability rating 100%. No question we would buy another but we need to downsize now due to our travel habits. Show less
