Forest River Hemisphere Class A - Diesel reviews

I purchased this 2025 new RV and I’ve had one issue after another with it. Every time I’ve taken it out, I’ve discovered something else that’s broken. The RV part- I’ve had 2 major leaks (one had to be sealed on the roof and of course it didn’t come with a ladder to fix it!). The shower not being properly installed, windows leaking and one window is the wrong window (it’s too big for the space so it bows and you can see light coming from the edges), the putty they used to seal the nail holes turning yellow as though it’s old, the modem in the Winegard having to be replaced, outside door locks being installed upside down or not locking, the generator struggling to turn on or randomly shuts off, the front door not closing properly (both screen and outside), and I had to replace the “stainless steel” sink because it was rusting! The truck- 2023 Mercedes diesel chassis (a 2 year old chassis?!). I’ve had issues with the key fobs - it won’t “push to start” without it being manually plugged in, the engine going into limp mode during drives and losing oil, the e-brake not letting up without toggling it many times, and overall squeaky sounds when driving forward and backward when parking.

Our first RV - purchased new in OH and drove back to AZ. A Forest River Sunseeker Mercedes Benz 2400T. It was planned for just my wife and I - we love the 2400 T layout. Two electronic theatre recliners, with tray tables - instead of a booth (we do not like booths). We have the fold down queen bed, a nice sofa and a pop in dining table. It all works for us. Probably the best feature is the bathroom - that sold my wife. It is the largest in its class, the full width of the RV, with plenty of room and privacy to get dressed in. Love the electric awning with the LED lights too. Show less

This is one of the best floor plans for how we RV. Literally everything is accessible while traveling. No need to put the slide out for an overnight stop. Amazing storage- this is due to no bed slide or outdoor kitchen (my preference).we can store our eBikes and tones of other gear in the rear storage. For a class C it has tons of storage bays. My 18 year old says that the bunk over cab is very comfortable for sleeping. We added a 1” eggshell style pad to help with seams. So much interior storage! My one negative here is the wasted space with the wire shelf pull out “pantry” total piece of junk. There is no perfect RV. You will always need modifications /personalizations. Other than that we are very happy with our purchase. Show less

The quality after 8 months is very disappointing. Leakages caused damaged interior parts, very poor finishes and quality of used materials is very disappointing. Airconditioning fan in living room stopped working, sunshade motor cover missing, windows can not be locked any more, sun screens inside poor quality. The driving behaviour is very unstable with the slightest side wind. Above 50 mph it can get really scary on the highway. The engine makes a lot of noise on higher speed and starts shifting down very quick when driving on a hill which causes very high rpm. Show less

Have had nothing but trouble with this $100,000 piece of crap. Have to use a stick to push feces down the ledge under the toilet. Marvelous! They told me to grease it up and use more water to flush. Great for dry camping, right? First time we pulled it onto a campsite we had no hot water. Couldn’t get any help from the dealership to correct until 3 weeks later. Now we’re here 2years later and we have no hot water again. It was fine before we left to get here . If someone built a house like this they would be sued Show less

Great Class C RV for a budget friendly price. For under 100k I don't think there is any other Class C on the market with this many features at this size and quality. The ability to comfortably sleep 8 is a win/win. The Godzilla Ford engine carries this RV smoothly down the road and with it's larger size it's still easy to maneuver into spots. Show less

Bought a brand new unit unfortunately in the middle of winter in MN. This is the worst RV for quality ever. Nothing worked. Plumbing in the back bathroom wasn’t finished, rotting wood in the other bathroom, bunk pieces falling out, AC in the front has never worked properly, side walls in the bedrooms are all flexing and making noise, sawdust all over the place, fridge didn’t come with a water drip tray, cabinets above the seats bottom are all falling out, the bunks ceiling wasn’t nailed up right, the shades not put on right, you can feel bumps under the laminate where is wasn’t cleaned before installed, back tv was installed broken, scratches all over the sinks in the bathrooms, jacks didn’t work right, front seat motor didn’t work couldn’t move it. This whole unit is just junk. Now the slides don’t go out. I just want my money back. This has to be a lemon. Show less

This was a great starter unit for us. We added the Sumo Springs and Safe-T-Steer which made it drive so much smoother and better. We had some bugs with the unit but we have worked them out. Very comfortable for a family of 4 but we have travelled with 6 with no issues. Show less
