Overall best experience I have ever had in a camper. So many memories shared with my wife and 4 yr old son living full time no complaints whatsoever. My 4 yr old definitely put the camper to the test like a toddlers do and it is built tough. I absolutely love the hidden pantry out of sight behind the fireplace for 2 reasons the magnet is very strong to keep the little one from being able to get inside and secondly it’s an awesome talking piece when family and friends are over and see a door open they didn’t know existed. The bunk beds have more than enough space for a teenager to sleep on and the master bedroom is a perfect size. I’ve been full time living in this camper almost a year without a single appliance or material inside or outside the camper showing any sign of concern. If you’re looking for a camper that won’t break the budget that is built to last I would definitely consider the KODIAK ULTRA LITE 296BHSL.

When my Dutchmen Kodiak 248BHSL trailer was manufactured the person installing the spare tire to the bumper over tightened it which slightly crushed the bumper. Enough that I can't use the bumper to store my sewer hose. I went back and forth with Keystone to have it covered under warranty. Their response was "it's built as designed".
These trailers are cheaply made and I fixed several things myseft instead of dealing with warranty.
I would recommend avoiding any Keystone products.

We loved the layout of the RV. However that being said we have had nothing problems with it. Had to have a new air conditioner in it a month out of warranty. Heater had to worked on three times. Had to have new faucet on island because the original one kept falling off during travel. The contact paper ( yes I said contact paper)on cabinetry is coming off. The couch is awful. Had to have it redone a year into having it. Cushions at table had to be redone. This travel trailer has been climate kept. We purchased this when we retired brand new and it saddens us that this has been a constant nightmare. Although our previous travel trailer was 8 years old, it was a much better made and we never had one problem with it. This one has been a cash cow. Every time something went wrong we would get nothing but the run around. Now we are stuck with it because who would want to buy this?

We have been camping/rving for many years. We have had campers from pop-ups, 5th wheels, class A and C motorhomes. We moved into a trailer trailer 2022 Dutchman Kodiak Ultra-lite 261 Rbsl for it meets our current priorities. All seasons, bedroom, large bath, lots of storage, large kitchen with big pantry, great refrigerator, and outdoor cooking grill and outdoor refrigerator. We have now used this camper 3 times and spent 10 days in it very recently. Everything has been very favorable. This was a perfect choice for us.

Have owned this camper for only 1 year. So far the list seems endless with problems and they just continue to pile up.
Circuit board on the heater had to be replaced.
Thermostat had to be replaced.
Roof on slide had to be repaired within the first week.
All four jacks are completely rusted.
Stairs had to be cut off and hinge had to be welded on because the hinge seized.
Thumb latches on the doors rusted all out and had to be replaced.
Screws were rusted on the outside.
Connection to city water was not properly installed and leaked.
The sliding barn door from the roof has no proper supports to hold it to the roof and there’s nothing to screw it into.
Our black water tank has seized up on the outside and will not open.
The list continues so go on. Don’t make the same mistake we did.

We have been very disappointed in our new trailer. We purchased in Feb. 2019 and in June 2019, our refrigerator went when we were on a 9 day camping vacation. We lived 7 days out of coolers and friends refrigerators. We have had to work on just about every drawer in the trailer. After we would arrive at each destination, a drawer would need worked on as it came completely off the tracking or screws would come out of the floor, as the screws were not long enough to hold.In Sept. during a brief rainstorm, an awning arm snapped in half. The table was not designed to actually sit at and eat. We had to have a custom table made.The door separating the living space from the bedroom won't stay on the track, we had to put stoppers in.

I have owned this Kodiak 201QB for about a year. It has a lot of features, not found on all of the others. The undercarriage is enclosed to keep out critters, electric awning, holding tank flush, LED lights under awning, for hookups, and throughout. Has a weight distribution hitch with sway bars for smooth handling. Has a bumper mounted hitch for bike rack, or rack. It has a handle and screen protector on screen door. and covers over the roof vents, so they can be open in the rain. Has brakes and custom wheels, and ducted air-conditioning. Also has all of the usual features found on this size Travel Trailer.
