Forest River reviews

Bought this RV new in 2021. For 2 people, it's an absolute gem. Easy to tow but durable. Standard couch, mattress, and tires were easily upgraded, and it has performed beautifully over the last 3 years. Came with a 7 year extended warranty and I have yet to have any issues. 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 travel trailer I purchase sept 22 2024 pick it up oct9 2024. Then 2 weeks later took it back bbq wiring caught on fire after lighting it, refrigerator, keeps loosing power to where I lost food a couple times. Then pick it back up close to 3 weeks later showed up at dealership door was left open dirt and leaves fill the trailer floor. Then had to go back the following week to pick it up. Took off to San Jose was gone 3 months staying in and out running back and forth to LA from San Jose so I had stored trailer at rv park while I worked in LA . Came back to it after a week and bedroom, hallway window bedroom window filled with water due to leaking window so I put caulking around that cleaned up mess. We also had dehumidifiers in trailer so then I had to fly to Portland for a week came back mold all over bedroom under bed in cabinets all over trim window still looked like they leaked. Also stayed in trailer like 5-6 weeks while working in San Jose then frig started kilian my food inside and would not stay cold. While I’m back in Medford with the trailer now it’s February and dealship tell me I’ll have to forest river they can’t help me. Now what 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

Definitely not for cold weather camping, no ducts to keep pipes from freezing . Rear end sits to low, drags on every little hill. Not very stable when hauling weight. The camper we had before this one never dragged on an incline and had heat ducts through the whole camper. This only has 1 vent right at the furnace. Show less

This camper worked for our family of 3 wonderfully. We drove across the country from Washington to Alabama, used it for hunting season in a snowy Montana and have gone to the beach in Florida multiple times. Those memories have been priceless. I cannot recommend this toy hauler enough! Show less

We love the open concept floor plan with large bathroom! For a couples camper it's been perfect and decent when we have had the occasional guests. The camper has ample storage inside and out. It makes a great spring, summer and fall camper, however it is not for winter camping! It has heated tanks and a fireplace but is not insulated enough to comfortably camp all year. My only other complaint is the large windows in the slide don't open. But for the price point I understand. I did have some slide issues initially but once I lubed up the rack and pinion components it's worked great. The RV sits up high so it does catch a lot of wind when towing, anti sway bars are highly recommended! The plastic access a belly cover underneath the camper cracked and I had to repair it, wasn't to difficult. All in all I have really enjoyed this RV. I did not have any dealings with the warranty or factory support as I work on my RV myself. Show less

This was one of the best purchases for our family. We are a family of 6 and using this RV for camping or extended road trips was as easy as it could get with the variety of seating arrangements and seatbelts in multiple locations throughout the coach. Also having full access to fridge, pantry, and bathroom makes the need for multiple stops along the way a thing of the past. Show less

This is a very attractive trailer and for the most part has held up. We ran into an issue with the black tank valve immediately but other than that it’s been alright. There’s a lot of overhang which makes it hard to go on steep hills. Ours has the cold weather package but first winter in it proved a lot of stuff was not ready for it. The tank heaters are practically useless and with no furnace it can be almost impossible to defrost the tanks. We were lucky enough to have the cold front not last too long and get back above freezing temperatures. I will say that we were in 0 degrees and did not realize it was that cold until we checked the weather. It has great internal wall heaters but the HVAC is practically useless. There are a few drafts in the bedroom which we had to use reflectix for. Show less

Our trailer spent most of the first year in the shop. The firefly controls have had constant issues. The bedroom/ hall slide had to have the bottom completely replaced. The slide would not close properly. The water heater had frozen and split the lines before we ever used the trailer. The lights in the kitchen slide pulled out and I had to re-atach them. The awning came un attached and damaged the side of our house. We have had the trailer just over 1 1/2 years and used it less than 10 times. I was inspecting the trailer to get ready for a trip next month and the heater blower motor has gone out. Show less
