Loved the Trailer for the Dutcman name, 3 yr warranty, flooring, K bed, double vanities & color scheme.
Its been less than 6 months. First thing we noticed, if you touched the frame, it would shock you. IM AN ELECTRICIAN. The dealer said just avoid touching the frame....I do not jest. Battery wouldnt hold power. Microwave didn't work - took 3 mos to get warranty to fix it.. Oven didn't work, still doesn't, waiting on warranty. To be fair they sent another one that didn't fit, was 6" too high so still, we wait. 1st week bathroom floor turned black, dealer blamed it on us...so why is the rest of the floor not black? We have ONE outlet that works in the trailer. They one at a time started losing power. Two of the cabinet doors are mounted wrong...but you dont notice it until you open them. Then they drop to an angle. The bathrrom shower has suddenly developed a couple of black spots, and even though we clean it after each use, I thought mold & set to work with some bleach.
Nope..not mildew or something cleanable. It wont come off and seems to be behind the wall. Shades in bedroom are installed backwards so no pulling them up and down. Front window keeps about 3" of water in the bottom. Husband has to hang a beach towel above his head each night to keep condensation from dripping onto his head. Condensation is so bad that water just rolls down the walls. Yes, weve stayed- even lived - in RVs before - I know the fixes for condensation but this is ridiculous. Stereo worked day one and never again. Both armchairs are broken now. But the worst grievous manufacturing error to date, has to do with the heater/furnace. Worked night one and the next two nights where temperatures reached 11 and 19 degrees...it didn't work.
So I sit here in this trailer, that I brought in June, freezing my bohonkus off, using one plug to charge my phone while the window above me leaks water onto my head. I'm trading this thing in as soon as I can feel my toes.
I'm seriously trading this thing in and would encourage everyone else to stay away from the Dutchman ASTORIA.
