My family and I have loved each of our experiences with this camper. That being said, we're sad to let it go. We're only selling it because of our middle child's demanding baseball schedule and lack of use over the last few years.
As a family of five, we found the floorplan accommodating, spacious and comfortable. The only challenge we found concerning livability was the sleeping area mattresses. However, we were able to overcome that issue with the purchase of 4" foam mattress toppers. Now the unit is just as comfortable as our beds at home.
With the majority of our camping trips being between 2-4 days, we were pleasantly surprised at the livability of this camper... Especially regarding the usage of water and power. In that regard, propane was never an issue, even when heating the camper in the colder destination. That being said, it’s always a good idea to bring an extra tank or two if you can.
Overall, the camper is extremely light, especially considering all of the creature comforts it's outfitted with. That coupled with purchasing a trailer hitch that included anti-sway stabilizing (sway bars), I can honestly say we never encountered any issues pulling this camper, even on the most challenging roads under the most challenging conditions. With the extra five inches of ground clearance included in the "Extreme" model, we found there was almost no terrain we couldn't access!

We bought a 2016 StarCraft Launch 26RLS in January 2016. This is absolutely, without a doubt, the biggest piece of junky trash we have ever wasted money on. There were issues from day 1, starting with non-working awning lights that took 6 weeks to have fixed due to the dealership refusing service after the sale. It was a simple fix that shouldn’t have been overlooked to begin with. It seemed alright until the warranty ran out. After that, it was 1 problem after another. The DVD player quit working. The water connection was having to constantly be worked on due to leaks. The awning CAME OFF while my husband was driving down the road. As in, it ripped completely off, taking the rails & all. So much for the awning lights, right? The toilet leaked. A side window latch broke off. Water heater quit working. The side shelves on either side of the bed came loose & had to be fastened back up. The cabinet between the 2 chairs came apart & had to be fastened back together. The chairs themselves started peeling. Had to keep them covered to hide it. Did I mention the constant issues with leaks? Because the latest issue was when the bed collapsed. When my husband went underneath to see why this happened & how he could repair yet another problem with this trash, he found that the front wall (on the tow end) was a soggy mess. Apparently, it’s been leaking from the outside the entire time we owned this brand spanking new travel trailer. I was so excited to get this camper. And it’s been nothing but a major disappointment. They should be ashamed of this shoddy, pathetic workmanship. This was a complete & total waste of hard earned money. We will NEVER buy another one of their products.

This was described as an ultra lite and was good to tow with a small truck, and it was exactly that. It was simple and easy to tow with a weight distribution hitch you didn’t really know it was there. The livability was nice and the quality that was put into it was much better then other we looked at. I had friends that bought others and they had problems after problems and we didn’t have any problems at all. The jack beds in the rear are amazing and makes for extra storage and having the extra entrance straight into the bathroom amazing, no need to walk all the way through the camper to use it when you are enjoying the outdoors. Excellent camper and brand.

Customer service with extended warranty, is non existent. Was sold warranty that is not how it was represented when purchased. All the laminated surfaces inside the RV peeled off. The shower leaked and was not secure. The door between the bathroom and bedroom flopped around during travel as you could not secure it. Over all quality was not what I expected as we had owned a 2014 model that was far superior to the 2016.

Bought new. We have had 3 rear roof windows replaced and 2 forward windows replaced because of leaks. The rear one is leaking again. Stored in garage over winter. 98% of travel on pavement. Disappointed in the build. Cheaply made. Dealership and manufacturer tossing responsibility for repairs back and forth. It has cost Us lots to fix. Unit has been used 8 to 10 times with one long trip. It does tow well, looks great and has handy features But they do not make up for the fact that the basics aren’t good. It makes an expensive spare bedroom and it has to be covered with a tarp! We will never buy Starcraft/Jayco again.

No closet rods in the other two closets.so all you can do is stack clothes.
Had to flip the bed lifts to get it to stay up.
Then discovered the bed pulled away from the wall,the framing screws were to small...
Now a problem with the siding that it has buldge in one spot.I know its not from leaking it does not leak..nor can I afford to fix this or fix it on my own..So really check them out.before buying.

Overall the Ultra Lite is a highly efficient trailer with very low cost of operation including TV, HD antennas with dozens of free channels depending on location.
