2019 Forest RIver reviews

Disaster from day 2! This manufacturer builds crap! Everything breaks and everything leaks. 2 of 3 slides are soaked and broken to the point that one has a 2" gap at the seal. It rains buckets inside. We have mold. And we live in it. Bankruptcy is the only way out! RUN!!!! Do not buy Forest River! Show less

After only 6 total trips with my R-POD 179 the trailer hitch folded up and I think the insurance company will be totalling the unit. I bought the trailer and anti sway hitch from the dealer on their recommendation. I was on my way on the 6th trip when I heard an unusual noises and pulled off the interstate and found a shoulder to park the unit on and saw the damage. I spent over 1.5 hours trying to find a tow company to get the unit to a nearby dealer. I loved the overall design of the unit and tow ability. I am a little disappointed with the overall quality of the unit. Show less

This RV provides a spacious floor plan at a very reasonable price. The rear living room layout and dinnette table with chairs provides a home away from home feeling. The midbunk room is a great option for kids or a home office. Tons of storage through out the coach including under belly. The modern decor and residential fridge adds a stylish appearance sure to impress friends and family. Cant say enough great things about this floor plan. The only thing I would change is having large propane tanks which is an easy upgrade! Show less

Easy to tow. Loved the layout and the storage spaces. Fridge a little small for a longer trip. Murphybed top and easy to handle. The outside light on top was good and the blue lights on the bottom gave a cozy ambiente. Disappointed in the warranty work. Never able to fix a wallpaper problem. Show less

We have hauled our Surveyor legend since new. We ordered it from the factory with added features like a cold weather package, roof ladder, aluminum wheels. Over the past 4 years we have hauled it around about 20,000 miles. We have replaced the tires in the second year with about 19,000 miles on it due to the faculty that the tires are poor in quality. We suffered a tire tread separation but changed the tire before it blew out. The trailer is very good and well built. I would have preferred having only 1 entry door instead of the two. The second door does not get used hardly all. We have replaced the folding stairs in the back door because the original stairs worked OK but seemed a little flexable. We installed an adjustable fold down unit instead. We installed rear camera by attaching it to the installed wiring that the trailer came with. The trailer has been used in cold weather with great success as well as in the summer and spring heat of the south Florida and it has served us well with no issues to speak of. The bathroom is larger than other trailers we looked at an so we were more comfortable with the larger size. We are very happy with our trailer, and we have owned others before and this one is built much stronger with better materials like the 15 year guarrentee vinyl roof, the walls are made of a combination plastic/ fibreglass walls that do not leak like the aluminum walls do.

Spacious and well designed and laid out travel trailer, including a full size bathroom which is a rare yet greatly appreciated. The cabinet finish, kitchen sink, stove backsplash adds a modern touch. The amount is storage space allows you to organize anything you'd like to bring along for a trip before hitting the road and without having to unpack and reorganize once you've reached your destination. Makes for a fuss-free, enjoyable getaway. Lots of storage kitchen utensils, dishware, pots , pans, small appliances, bakeware, bath towels, toiletries, full kitchen pantry, "his and hers" closets, plus large under bed storage space and overhead cabinets. Small door next to bed can be utilized as a laundry shoot that's accessible from a separate exterior door. Interior and exterior speakers offer great sound with option to watch TV outside as well. Great trailer!!! Show less

For the asking price, the workmanship and materials used are pathetic. No customer service and forget the warranty. Grey tank pipe split at elbow to tank. ABS pipe wall thickness is paper thin. They don’t want it to last and then make it impossible for you to access it and repair or replace with new pipe. They want you to pay their techs extortionate rates to come and fix it. Steer clear Show less

Purchased used, moved in on existing lot. As with many manufacturers there is some confusion on exact model, Floorplan. Manufacturer placard states model SMT200RK but finding info online is scarce. Overall very pleased with quality, seems well enough insulated to keep heated and cooled even in sweltering heat southeast Texas is known for. Show less

This RV has been great and while the floor plan isn’t perfect it is a good layout. The only reason we moved on from ours is that our family is outgrowing it. The camper is light and very easy to pull. I noticed a big difference when we got the new longer one. I love our new one but miss the towablility of this model. Rockwood makes a high quality camper and you can tell it. This model has gear driven slides as opposed to cable which is very nice and reliable. Overall a great little camper. Show less
