Within 6 mo of purchase tv didn't work, radio received hardly any stations,antenna mounted on side,no wonder. They replaced tv,booster and sent a kit to not use radio antenna but to splice off of tv Antenna, still bad radio reception anywhere,bad tv reception anywhere. Was told by a retired friend who sold coaches and travel trailers you never split the signal of either. Have had on going mouse problems(getting in the unit at 2 different locations) upon trying to solve the problem, found many places where holes drilled in floors and wall for pipes or wires, were not caulked or sealed. To this day I cannot seem to correct the problem. Seems to be poor workmanship and/ or in quality control. I believe the radio is simply a cheap unit as I can sit outside the units in my truck and receive near 30 stations well, while in the unit lucky to get up to 7 at best,tv forget that. This is my 3rd travel unit,1st new purchase,never figured having these kind of problems. Kind of disappointed with the quality of components and workmanship at Forest river/flagstaff.

We owned this the 2016 Flagstaff Super Lite 27RLWS for 3 years and towed it approximately 10,000 miles during that time. It came with a fold down couch that we felt to be uncomfortable and since we weren’t going to be taking people with us we decided to replace it after two years with a RecPro Theatre seating which matched the decor. It was much more comfortable. It also had a dinette rather than the U shaped dinette which we preferred over the U shaped dinette. The only problems we ever had were during the warranty period with the water pump and one of the stabilizers but were fixed. We did notice that the floor had glue on it after we had bought it and Forest River replaced the floor for us. The wardrobe was of ample size and the pantry held quite a bit too. We used the linen/coat closet as a dirty clothes holding area as you could get to it from the bathroom too. It lacked on towel racks but my husband added those as well as a sturdier residential faucet in the bathroom. We enjoyed our time in the trailer and it pulled fine with our RAM 2500 with sway bars. We only decided to get rid of it because we knew we wouldn’t be able to use it for the next year or two because of health issues with relatives. All in all I would recommend this travel trailer especially for a couple or a person with one or two small children.

We are seasoned Pop-up campers—this Flagstaff was our 3rd—and the worst decision we’ve ever made. Brand new from the factory, we had trouble from the very first overnight camping trip to try it out. The hoses leaked, both on the shower and on the kitchen faucets—first a slow leak, then a steady stream that forced us to turn off the water outside and haul water inside in a bucket. The air conditioner, which we had installed at the dealership, didn’t have enough length in the cord, so the prongs on the plug-in bent, and was in a place where my husband needed arms at least 36” long to reach. The ceiling fan had a short from the minute we tried to turn it on—it would go on and off at will through the 26 hours we camped. The door wouldn’t align—it kept blowing open because it couldn’t latch, and definitely couldn’t be locked. The mattress warmer’s control fell apart in my hand when I took it out of the bag the first time. The next morning, in the process of taking the camper down, we saw that the king bunk had separated from the formica adjacent to it, over the drawer. We went back to the dealership, wanting to return the pop-up after our 24 hour fiasco. They refused. They threatened us if we pursued legal action. We went without our camper from April until late July while the dealership waited for parts from Forest River to replace what was broken, so we missed most of our 2019 camping season. We took it on a month-long camping trip to Colorado and Utah in the fall, thinking everything that was wrong was fixed. Those things were fixed, but now we had new issues. On the 9th day of our trip, the hot water tank quit working, with 21 days to go. Then, when we were taking down to move onto Utah, the futon couch would not go back into place as we tried to take down. Unbeknownst to us, the metal bracket had been factory installed at the wrong angle, and was cutting into the wood brace that supported it. We couldn’t take the pop-up down without my husband totally removing the bracket so the futon could go down. For the rest of the trip, we had to sit very carefully on the futon so it wouldn’t fall through into the storage area under it, and heated water on the cooktop to wash dishes.
We wrote twice to the the CEO of Forest River, Peter Leigl, who promised to make it right and never did a thing. The salesman at Happy Trails RV in Lebanon MO who sold this unit to us, had no clue what he was doing, once we brought the camper back to them. The only saving grace was a repairman there, Chris, who did everything he could to fix all the problems this camper had. I would not buy another product from Forest River for any reason. They sell, then they’re done.
The pop-up was on warranty, since it was brand new, so we didn’t have to pay for repairs, but we were never comfortable taking it on a trip again. PLEASE buy a camper from any other company but Forest River—it was a nightmare experience for us.
