Eclipse Utility Trailer reviews

I reviewed this trailer 4 yrs ago, and despite poor customer service, and some little delamination which has since stopped,It has been a good solid home on the road for us and we are quite happy with it. It has the best floorplan for a smaller camper with everything you need. Show less

We purchased this Attitude toyhauler in June of 2023. Immediate problems were holes in the bottom of trailer allowing rodents and dirt into living area. The onan generator would not keep running and the onan regional director found it was installed incorrectly at the Eclipse factory. The front cap is de-laminating and must be replaced. The hot water heater does not work properly. The fridge wont operate over 5500' in elevation. We began dealing with the factory on these warranty items in July 2023. As of 5/28/2024 Eclipse has not made one repair. Their warranty dept. is deceitful and dishonest to both their customers and dealers. I have spoken with 2 of their dealers who told me they will no longer sell Eclipse (attitude) RV's as their quality is horrible and they can't get the parts to repair them. Buyer beware! Show less

Purchased new in June 2023. Immediately the generator would overheat and shutdown. ( cummins/Onan inspected and said it was improper installation by Eclipse). The front cap is delaminated and needs replaced. Refrigerator doesn't work properly. Slide doesn't open/close properly. All the small issues I repaired with these listed are beyond the scope of an owner. I started dealing with Eclipse warranty Dept last June. Their dealers won't do their warranty work sighting no factory support and parts availability. As of 4/4/2024 they still have not resolved my issues. No more ECLIPSE junk for me. Show less

We purchased our new 2023 Atitude toyhauler in June of 2023. These are the issues we have had so far. 1. Hot water heater does not work. 2. Onan generator was improperly installed and will overheat and shutdown. 3. Refrigerator sometimes won’t ignite and when it does it runs a few minutes and shuts down. 4. Front cap is de-laminating creating large bubbles in the material. 5. Roofing is wavy and has bubbles all over it. 6. 10”x10” hole underneath allowing rodents, dirt and water directly into camper. 7. Bathroom medicine cabinet has sharp metal edges on it and cuts you. 8. Dealer pre-sale setup wasn’t done correctly allowing a wheel to come off at 70mph. 9. Ladder not installed correctly leaving large holes through the outside of camper. 10. AC storage door improperly installed allowing it to come loose from trailer. I have had to repair some of these problems due to safety concerns but as of 12/23 I still haven’t gotten the main problems resolved with the manufacturer. This camper was purchased from DD RV in Boise, ID. Very poor customer service and non-responsive employees. Show less

One of the worst purchases I have ever made. Our first trailer we had was a Keystone and it lasted 8 years without an issue. Bought this brand new trailer from Motor Sportsland (Utah), and in one year we had more than 7 pages of issues related to the trailer. Even the RV dealer shakes their head every time I had to bring it in. Bubbles formed on the outside of the trailer, than the invertor was wired wrong, speakers fell out of ceiling, gas pump was poorly wired and had to be rewired, and they didn't lower the gas arm inside the gas tank after it was delivered. (caused it to show full at all times). I could go on and on, but we had to take it in after camping trip, so we were only able to take it out 4 times in one year. Eclipse service parts and support is so bad, it takes months to receive product. This is a really nice looking trailer, but that is where it stops. This is a manufacturer that needs to stop making trailers. **don't be swayed by the motorcross sponsor decal. They pay for that to be on it** You have been warned, i will never buy another Eclipse, and honestly these reviews should sit on our dealserships website so people know what they are buying.

I was very excited while purchasing our 2013 26 foot Eclipse toy hauler but it didn’t take long for the honeymoon to be over. Started to have a few small issues in first couple years but the major issues were just starting. After a hunting trip while wheel bearings were being repacked the technician noticed some small cracks in frame. We had noble welder come and weld cracks but that was just the star of the cracking. Now we know that Ecilpse used to soft of metal when designing these Toyhauler’s. I have been very good at getting all my scheduled services done but now have a trailer I cannot use. The body of trailer has come loose from the frame, shackles have separated frame frame also. Welder told me it cannot be repaired because the frame material is too soft. I was getting ready to spend 4K on repairs before being warned it was beyond repairing. If you own an Eclipse toy hauler be careful. I now have a trailer that I cannot move😞 Show less

This piece of garbage does not deserve a star! I purchased a 2020 Eclipse Attitude. the first time I used it, I had it parked in the front of my home plugged in to get the fridge cold. Before we left so excited for our first trip in our brand new $45,000 toy hauler I unplugged the trailer and fired up the gas refrigerator and locked the door. when I walked around the other side there was flames shooting out the side! we were on fire. I took it back to the dealer and discovered they never hooked up the gas line to the fridge but it was close enough ignite from the igniter. we decided to use coolers and go anyways. we get about 60 miles out of town and one of the wheels come off! The floor is also coming up as well. so we are stranded with no cell service. At this point I just wanted out of this thing. buyers beware most states we don't have any consumer protection from frauds like this company. I had to let the dealer do repairs so I had no trailer for most of the camping season. then I finally got to take it out again for the first time last week hunting. we were really stupid and decided to use the stove top to cook some hamburger. while we were cooking away the whole stove top burst into one huge blue flame blistering my girlfriends hand badly. also flames shooting up in-between the stove and counter top. I've called the manufacturer twice now still no calls back. Also floor is coming up again battery's wont last for five hours with heat, that's with solar and upgraded battery's, so obviously we electrical problems as well. We had lots of rain one night, leaving puddles of water inside the trailer and a warped roof on the slide out. HMMM Leaks too? Toilet leaks on the floor as well. There are lots of choices out there stay away from this company! My next review after this will be to the BBB . Show less

My wife and I have been camping out of our Eclipse Evolution 2014 for 6 years and are currently on a 9 month trip around the US. While we like the camper for its design,spacious storage and high clearance, we have had several serious negative issues with it. The fiberglass exterior has been delaminating after only 3 years and is getting worse despite the fact that it has been covered over the winters.I am told there is no fix for this. One of the water tanks fell off in a City Market lot, and I had to hacksaw it off to fit it in the truck to have it welded back on. I looked at the welds on the other tanks, and they were very weak to non-existent, so I had them re-inforced as well. This camper was out of warranty as it had a previous owner for a few months. The camper was put together very shoddily with poor wormanship. The drain hose for the fridge wasn't daylighted out as it should have been since this fridge didn't have an evaporation pan and the water was puddling inside the access panel until I routed it out. There was no vent to the outside for the stovetop. The fumes in close quarters were overwhelming,until I removed the microwave, and put a direct to outside vent with fan in the microwaves place. Customer service is poor with this company,and it was extremely hard to get a service tech to answer. I would not recommend this camper to anyone. Show less

We purchased this 2020 Toy Hauler July 1st, 2019 and pulled it 9000 miles with just one issue. The happy jack bed motor burned out. We spoke to the happy jack manufacturer about a design flaw. The motor was replaced under warranty and now works fine. This is our 2nd toy hauler. We have pulled it 4000 miles so far this year on mostly gravel roads. The trailer is air tight. The suspension works well. Tongue weight is a little heavy. We replaced the 20lb propane bottles with 30lb bottles and added an electric tongue jack. Thirteen hundred pounds without our side by side inside. It lightens to 1100 lbs when hauling the side by side. The brochure reads 100 gallon fresh water tank, but we can only squeeze in 70 gallons. The biggest gripe; it only has a 18000btu furnace. Not adequate for camping when it's below freezing in Montana. I added another 4" vent to the kitchen area which helps. We scraped off the decals covering the windows. The LED spot lights work well. The light bar above the entrance door is great. We like the laminate flooring and the multiple tie downs. The cabinets are well made, but could have been deeper. The 210 watt solar panels work well to keep the sealed batteries charged. We don't much care for the location of the TV above the refrigerator. We have relocated it to the small table. It could have come with a better mattress. But most trailers have a crappy mattress. We added a memory foam topper. The refrigerator, stove and microwave all work well. The chairs and slide couch are comfortable. The AC unit works flawlessly. We replaced the steps with a Lippert solid step. Overall we like the trailer. Show less

Garbage. We love the layout and the door/ramp in the back, but as of writing this I'm near tears. We traded in our solid motorhome for a piece of crap. In the year that we have had it, it has been in service over 60 days. The cheapest materials available were used to build it, but that is not evident at first, even in the walk through. The hitch has never fit quite right, the microwave, stove light and radio were not connected (we did it), the seals in the front started to disintegrate and were replaced (but it took almost 3 weeks to get Eclipse to respond to the dealer), the drawers are crooked and lamination on cabinets starting to peel. It has been back at the dealer because the pipes under the shower broke. Dealer is footing the bill because Eclipse won't respond. We purchased the extended warranty..another mistake. We have a loan we are paying. I feel ripped off.. lost our motorhome..trying to find recourse...horrible experience. It was supposed to be our retirement toy. Not sure what to do next. Only got one decent trip in it. Show less
