Here is an incomplete list of the problems I have had. I purchased this terrible rig at Leos Vacation Center in Gambrills, Maryland. Just about everything that could fail has failed on this unit. The manufacturer has paid Leos to repair things that they just fixed poorly or not at all. It has been a nightmare.
The manufacturer installed a TPO roof with PVC adhesive. When the roof heated up in the sun a reaction occurred and the TPO disintegrated. The roof material was replaced on the rig by Leos, but they refused to replace the bump out roof claiming it was installed with the proper adhesive. Leos messed up the replacement roof by cutting the material too short, now the roof is releasing from underneath the gutters and exposing the roof wood.
The awning lights failed. Leo replaced them but soon afterwards they failed again. Leos then claimed they were not out, yet they were. I replaced the LED strip myself at my cost.
The recliner lighting shorted out. Leos claimed to fix them but did not, I repaired them myself.
The wall storage box was installed incorrectly from manufacturer. Leos did repair this properly.
The kitchen table mounts broke. Leos replaced the garbage plastic mounts with metal mounts correctly.
The ceiling skylights were cracked during the roof replacement. Leos replaced them but then broke the bezels that I had to replace myself.
The City water inlet cracked and leaked inside the coach. Leos repaired it properly.
The manufacturer installed the ceiling in the bedroom incorrectly and it started to de-laminate. I fixed it after Leos messed up the repair.
The awning on the rig catastrophically collapsed. The manufacturer paid Leos to repair it, but one side still is loose, so another repair failure.
The gray and black tank sensors are erratic, the manufacturer refused to repair them.
The manufacturer took an over counter sink, drilled holes in it and mounted it under the counter-top with clips and screws. They did not seal the laminated kitchen counter however. Leos attempted to seal it, but did it incorrectly causing water damage to the particle board substrate.
The manufacturer placed the shower frame rivets incorrectly and some broke. Leos messed up the repair and I had to do it myself at my cost.
The slide out somehow loosened and racked. Leos fixed the racking but did not repair the seal correctly, I took care of it at my cost.
The dinette LED shorted out. Leos claimed to fix it and charged me for the repair, however they did not fix it and I had to fix it myself so I paid twice for a repair I did myself.
There were several more issues with manufacture defects that Leos claimed to repair, but never did, I am just tired of typing. This KZ Venture Stratus SR261VRK is a complete lemon and I will never do business with KZ/Venture nor any other Thor subsidiaries. This ban also extends to Leos, their service is awful in my opinion. Now that I have personally repaired almost all the manufacture defects, maybe this coach can finally be "recreational".

Typical outing is 4 adults and 3 kids. With that said, the king U feature made this camper unlike any other that we have had, especially on a rainy day when we are stuck inside. Great layout. Minor issues with hinges coming loose but easily fixed by replacing with larger screws. Only real complaint is the decals are already peeling off. If your doing your do diligence you can advert any real issue like leaks. Owning a camper means you have to always prepare for the unexpected so that when something does go wrong its just a temporary set back. Smile, relax and enjoy.

This rv was perfect for us, senior couple, no kids, one cat, UNTIL it started to delaminate. My husband had been doing the maintenence regularly and inspecting for any leaks etc. He had checked and re-caulked multiple seams. It began delaminating in the front on the driver side of the trailer. Before long, delamination started on the other side of the trailer in the rear. KZ the manufacturer was not interested in helping. The trailer was only 3 yrs old with one trip to New England from GA and used the rest of the time for GA state park camping. Perhaps it had about 8,000 miles at the most. Very disappointing. Thankfully we were able to sell it to Camping World and informed it had a roof leak that would require removing the entire roof area to repair. Just want folks to be aware of this potential problem.

Buying this camper was the biggest mistake we ever made!!!!

I dont know if this is a Venture RV issue but after 2 years my grey water tank fell out off the bottom and the trailer wasn't even moving. I have read other reviews that state this same thing. It would have been disasterous if we were on a highway. Make sure you inspect and re-enforce the the mounts for the tanks if you plan on going down the highway. Layout is excellent bed base could have matched the king mattress instead it overhangs. All the vents have cracks in them and the blinds needed bigger screws and floor squeeks like no tomorrow.
