2022 Shasta reviews

This is a heck of a fifth wheel for a full time living. I wouldn't say its built like a home but our family of 3 and pets have put this thing to the test as far as structural integrity and daily use. We've owned since March of 2022 and have not had any issues. The appliances have all worked, the electronics have all worked. Overall, we are very impresed. We keep it maintenance ourselves and it has paid dividends. We drain the black tank weekly, we take the AC covers off to clean them every 6 months or so, we have put out own sealant around the base of the sink pedestals, as we have noticed some swelling when the wood comes into contact with water but that is an easy fix. In the winter, we run the fire place space heater in the living room combined with two small space heaters and this keeps the unit at a perfect 70 degrees inside at night, even at 30 or below. The gas heater runs fine, we just dont like spending the propain. I would recommend to anyone like us looking for a temporary living solution to get us through a stretch on our land until we can build a house. Show less

Great fifth wheel for big family! With two full bathrooms and two bedrooms, there is something for everyone in this motorhome! The private bunkhouse has a flip down bunk above a tri-fold hide-a-bed sofa across from a bunk, a wardrobe, and its very own full bathroom which even has an entrance/exit door to the unit. The front private bedroom has a queen bed with nightstands on either side, a wardrobe slide, and an area prepped for an optional washer and dryer to keep your clothes looking their best. The chef will love the kitchen island, but love cooking at the outside kitchen even more! Full time travel and we enjoy it 👌🏼 Show less

I purchased this 25RB because of the size, layout, and my past positive experience with Shasta, but it was a big mistake. I’ve owned a truck camper, a Shasta Phoenix 5th wheel in the 1990’s, and most recently a 2018 Viking trailer. I had zero problems with any of them, so when I wanted to go a little bit bigger, I traded in the Viking for the Shasta. The quality of this Shasta product has been horrible. The screws on the cupboard door handles have come out, the cupboard under the sofa doesn’t latch correctly, the dome on the light over the table fell off, the handle to the black water tank fell off, the ends of the bumper fell out, the city water connection leaks, but the most frustrating thing is the MATTRESS! It was used for a week and I can feel the boards underneath it. It has the same cover as my Forest River Viking, so I made the assumption they were the same. Wrong! Upon investigation I realized it is only fiberfill. What a joke! My dog’s bed has better filling! I’m so dissatisfied and the dealer who sold it at Dolney RV in Kawkawlin, MI told me to deal with Shasta because he just ”sells the things”. Dave Troxel, from Shasta , said if the vendor deems the mattress faulty, they will just replace it with the same inferior one. We tried to winterize it and now something else is wrong because it won’t pump in the antifreeze. I wish I would have read reviews before buying. The Shasta Company of today is not the same as the old top quality Shasta that started in 1941! Buyers Beware! Show less
