Coachmen Chaparral Lite reviews

This camper has served us well. Very well built, sturdy. You truly don’t know that it’s back there while hauling. Only issue we have found is the cheap scissor jacks they put on. Do recommend buying different ones. Spend 33,000 on a camper these should be better quality. Show less

this is like a little house on wheels. Biggest bathroom, bedroom and kitchen and living room is so large it holds 3 couches! Have truly loved this fifth wheel. It's so livable and comfortable. Haven't had any issues. very well insulated against Florida heat. Show less

This was our first RV purchase and we have had it now for 3 years. We have been on about 12 trips with it - the longest being 12 hours to Arkansas. It fits our family of five perfectly, with room to add 3 more friends or family members. The separate bunk room for the kids is perfect, and my 5'9" daughter sleeps comfortably in there. It is great that they have their own space, and we have ours in the master bedroom. We have run the heater and the a/c for days straight and it has worked perfectly, we were very comfortable. I love the rainy days when we stay inside and watch movies too. The outdoor space is great - the outdoor kitchen is perfect for our coffee maker, kids sodas and snacks, and extra utensils, we used it quite a bit. There is even an outdoor shower if needed - we only needed it once at the lake. The storage is perfect too - we fit SO much into all the cabinets inside, as well as outside. We had enough towels, games, cleaning supplies, dishes, you name it - to make this basically a second home. Towing the camper was very easy, my husband's F150 had no problems at all. I can't say enough good things about this camper, we have had a wonderful experience with it all the way around. Show less

After 3 years, the floor rotted on the bedroom slide. Coachman stated it was a manufacturing defect and assisted with repairs. After 7 years both rear slide floors rotted the same way as the bedroom slide and coachman said it was from neglect and refused to send someone to look at it. If you are going to buy one of these units, make damn sure the slide seals are inspected every year because obviously they aren't sealed properly from factory. Show less

A modern, clean design with comfort in mind that fits up to 9 people. The rear room contains 3 single bunks with shelving and a closet. The master bedroom shares a rotating TV with the living room and lots of storage space around and under the queen bed. The main area boasts a dinette and a jack-knife sofa which both convert into full-size beds. In the same room is a kitchen with clean appliances and huge countertops. The outdoor kitchen offers a sink with running water, a propane stove, some storage, and a mini fridge waiting to be filled with your tasty beverages! Show less

We tow it w a 2015 Duramax 2500 series Chevy truck. Tltz package. Automatic. Double cab, 4:door. Also going to sell. Tows like a dream, full power over hills. We replaced the cheap king mattress with high quality queen mattress to give better sleeping and more access to walk around the bed. Has lovely fireplace. Show less

Great trailer! We love it! It's plenty big for our family, and it has great features! We love that it has the actual bedroom up front, along with an outside door! The bunks are nice for the kids, and it's extra handy to be able to flip up the bottom bunk and have the extra storage/hang up space. One of the unique features of this camper is the walk-in pantry.

Our Coachman Chapperal lite is a 2015 and has catastrophic water issues which just started this year. We cover it every winter and have taken great care of it but the slide outs leak and the back wall has ajso leaked causing $2 300.00 in damages. Our rv insurance is saying it's due to lack of care. I guess they don't last well as they aren't built like they used to be. Show less

I have owned many rv’s and purchased the Coachmen 204 rd ultra lite 2022. I have over 25 trips all over the west fly fishing. This is an awesome trailer. However all new RVs are not the quality I would like to see. I have a 6 volt system, inverter 3000w and solar fold out 200amp panels. Other than small issues I will keep this trailer, for many more years! Show less

Problem after problem. Switches failing, soft spots in the floor, water heater quit working, water pump quit working, toilet broke, slide out motors failing multiple times, slide out frame work broke, axle installed improperly from factory, interior fake wood covering is peeling, exterior trim is falling off, sealer around roof accessories is cracking and lifting. This trailer has so many problems you would think it was 15 years old but it is less than 5 years old. And if you include covid time that it wasn't used this trailer would be considered lightly used. I would highly encourage any rv buyer to stay as far away as possible from coachman apex. Show less
