Forest River Rockwood Mini Lite reviews

Its been my home away from home! Plenty of room, comfy heated beds I hated to leave, and incredible quality!! Everything always worked! Easy to set up and take down..Forest River really has nice, quality campers. I traveled a lot by myself and set up was easy. Love the fact I didn't need to share pottys and shower since it has that too. Show less

My husband and I are completely satisfied with this travel trailer! We love the layout! We have not had any trouble with it. It tracks great. The quality is perfect and exactly what we expected. The fireplace is great, as it heats the whole room. It’s our home away from home. Show less

The Versatility and Features the Geo Pro G16TH has in such a small Package is incredible. From Solar Power, Cargo Carrying Capacity, and Off Grid capability its amazing. It's easy to tow and fits where other larger RV's can't fit! I believe it's a perfect starting point for anyone just getting into Camping, attending Events, or for instant living quarters. Show less

This is the worst camper I have ever seen! It’s cheap workmanship and lousy quality! I will never purchase any Forest River product again! EVERY time we take it out we have to work on it!!!! From the heating to the plumbing and wood products like the drawers and shades. We have had to fix so many things. I feel like I need to take electric, wood, and plumbing supplies EVERY time I take this pice of crap out!!!!! I am now trying to sell it and get rid of it. It’s a LEMON of a product. Please don’t believe the hype of “Made by the Amish” if this is their quality they wouldn’t last a week living in this kind of camper! Run don’t walk away from any dealership that carries this CHEAP inferior product. I wish I had never ever purchased this money pit of a product. Show less

have lived in for 2 years in Texas. once had hose burst under entertainment center and freezer door hinge broke but besides that no problems. i bought for what i thought was a fair deal. it is great for 1 or 2 people. it is winterized so pipes under are protected. 2 ac units. 2 closets. very happy with my trailer.

We purchased a 2023 Vibe rear kitchen in October 2022. Love the floor plan, beautiful to look at . We have used the camper 9 times and in August of 2024 we went to use the over the bed cabinets and saw that the "wood look" paper was peeling from the sides of the cabinet. Looking further we found the same paper peeling in various places including the entire top of the pull out section. We called the dealer who said it was no longer under warranty. My husband called Forest River directly and they said oh yeah, we had a bad batch of glue. Two days later we found the entire bedroom closet door and jam had fallen off the wall. There is a crack in the top corner of the shower wall. The bathroom faucet handles are cracking and falling off. The camper jack fell down when we were coming home from a trip - scraping the highway all the way home. We had to buy and install a new one. The kitchen seats broke with the first use as the screws were not completely in the correct place. We have since had to reinforce both booth bottoms. Just one issue after another. I have never been so disappointed in such poor use of materials and workmanship for something that we still owe $30,000 on. We paid $50,000. What a complete waste of hard earned money. Do NOT buy a Forest River product!! Show less

It was purchased new and mainly a couples camper, but have had others stay a night. Had to have the bulb seal around the slide out replaced before purchase as it was coming off near the bottom of one side. Also had to return to the dealer, for a water line behind the shower that was not correctly installed. I noticed the noise when connecting to water and quickly shut it off. It was fixed while I waited. The slide fuse was installed too deep and the electric tongue jack went bad in about month 7, both were repaired/replaced while I waited (about 2 hours). There are odd and ends things that have needed attention that I have addressed (door hinges, latches, etc.) The TV antenna doesn't seem to work which we typically stream so have not addressed.

We have owned this RV since June 2023 and logged approximately 27000 miles traveling to CA, AK, and Nova Scotia all from PA. We have had minor issues, such as slides on drawers failing and other small issues but overall we are very pleased with this unit. The dealer we purchased this rig from has been excellent had any inquiry. Their response has been quick and very informative! When asked if I would buy another Rockwood or 2205S the answer is yes.

The floor plan is perfect for us as empty nesters. There is a spacious living area, a large bedroom and a decent sized bathroom. Have owned it just over a year and it has never made it a trip without something breaking. It went to the dealer approximately 7 different times to repair rattling plumbing behind the shower, replace one vent fan, repair another vent fan, reattach living room wall board to framing, repair 2 blinds that had holes in them, fix the waterpump as it was loosing prime constantly, fix the loose dinette seating back support wall, fix the annoying squeak in the bed framing. All of that was fixed under warranty. They couldn’t find anything wrong with the air conditioning, but it has an airflow issue that prevents it from keeping the trailer cooler than 10 degrees below outside temp. I will perform the DIY diverter assy to remedy that. Our last trip had the support that hold the counter top piece in place w hen the tv is stowed under the counter. I will fix that myself. I have owned 2 other trailers and they all had lots of issues also. Show less

Upgraded from a Flagstaff Microlite as we wanted something larger with a better floorplan. Found exactly that with this unit. We tow it with a 1/2 ton F-150 with the max tow package and really have very little issues with it other than occasional minor sway in higher winds. KEY to our towing experience was going with a WeighSafe weight distribution hitch system which I consider to be the best one out there. I have tried three other wd towing systems and this one is far superior as this trailer is very heavy; especially in the tongue. Build quality and durability have proven to be outstanding thus far and we are very happy with this travel trailer. Show less
