Forest River Wildwood Heritage Glenpage=2 reviews

Have had the same problem with the underbelly panels blowing off when towing. It is in at the dealer now for the fourth time. Dealer agrees the way panels are attached is a very poor design. They are trying to figure out a way to attached the panels actually to the frame. Has anyone had luck fixing this issue? Show less

We bought this TT brand new and Thank God my husband is very handy and has fixed many problems. Problems with plumbing , since the beginning when we bought it, it was in August of 2020 and we could not bring it in to get fixed due to covid, water leaking from the bottom of the shower, plumbing was done wrong and water would leak everywhere. Sofa and one reclining chair had to be fixed, problem with the slide outs rubber seals, he also fixed all of it. The latest, the roof was cracking everywhere , took it to Camping world and they sent pictures to Forest River to do a good will repair, and was told no they would not do it. Finally we had it fixed and it seems they painted the roof membrane to match the trailer, we found the difference in the color on the parts that where under the seals, and must have used the wrong paint and the roof felt like a cracker when is was taken off. It was completely dried out. This is not our first RV and we know how to take care of it, have always used the products recommended by the manufacturer to clean it. But of course Forest River did not want to take responsibility for a job so badly done. We will never buy another product from this company. Show less

Great starter RV for a family. Has everything to get going and camping. Light enough to be pulled with anything, and small enough to fit anywhere. Attention to detail is absent. Cabinets peeling almost immediately, plumbing iffy, with leaks found and needed to be fixed. 1st long trip, the underbelly panels were shattered by the wind. Bed is an engineering oversight, as it cracked on the first night laying on it, but easy to fix and reinforce ourselves with metal angle. Bathroom yellowed within a month. 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.

Easy to tow. Loved the layout and the storage spaces. Fridge a little small for a longer trip. Murphybed top and easy to handle. The outside light on top was good and the blue lights on the bottom gave a cozy ambiente. Disappointed in the warranty work. Never able to fix a wallpaper problem. Show less

The Grand View is the worst money that we have spent on any camping equipment. Forest River is hard to get payment for warranty work that has to be done, and believe me, there has been more problems with this camper than any we have owned. Be smart and stay clear of this poorly made camper. It is not worth half of what they sale for. Show less

I am writing this review in hopes that anyone who is searching for a RV travel trailer will stay clear of Forest River. I am not sure what type of quality assurance process they have but maybe someone needs to evaluate that department. We purchased a new Forest River Wildwood Platinum 29BUD floor plan RV and have had nothing but issues. This was our first RV so we were not sure what to look for, now I know! The screen door does not latch there is a gap between the door and the frame. The RV bathroom has done nothing but leak since we used it, sink leaked, coupling not attached to water hose. Shower leaked, not only was it not calked properly but the hose coupling on the water line was not seated properly. The gas heat works when it wants too and the bed board in the primary bedroom broke in half!! This is unacceptable to manufacture a product in this manner. Does this company not even care that people spend their hard earned money, I understand that we did not pay 100s of thousands for this RV but 30+ thousand was a lot of us. POOR Quality. I wish the list of ratings were more along the actual product quality. We choose the floor plan so that would be on us if we didn't like it. I'm sure it tows as any other RV trailer, over all quality does not say it all. Show less

We purchased this RV two months after buying our Jayco 265RLS. The Jayco was too big for us to tow with our 2019 Chevy Tahoe LS. Wanting to travel and not just remain Camp Rats, we looked into a smaller yet functional travel trailer that we could easily tow. The real star on this camper is the Super Slide. You would be amazed the added space you get on a 23' camper when it is out. The Wildwood weighs less than 4200 pounds and tows very nicely. While it is a single axel, it still tracks well with our Husky 32218 Center Line TS weight distribution hitch and sway is kept to a bare minimum. We love the Bonus Bunk that folds out above the Jack Knife sofa. This provides a great place for our 6 small pups to hang out and watch the world from the super sized windows. Another plus is the U shaped Dinette. Extra seating where you need it and great under bench storage as well. The 12Volt 11Cu' refrigerator is excellent. Minus's - The toilet is placed a bit close to the right wall in the bathroom. If you are a larger individual, you might have issues. The Roof needed to be completely resealed before I picked this unit up from the dealer - always check your roof seals. The Dinette seat support boards were held in place with cheap angled plastic strips and half of the staples used missed their marks. I replaced the plastic with aluminum strips and am quite happy with the results. There is a wall plate above the TV mount that covers the pass through to the outside wall for the wiring to run to the power awning. Ours had a leak from the factory because some idgit forgot to apply caulking where needed. I fixed mine with no problems. The camper came with China Bombs from the factory and I insisted they be replaced with Goodyears as part of our deal. There are NO power receptacles on the slide side of the camper. We installed AC outlets next to the power / circuit / fuse panel and it really enhances functionality when you need to operate your computer at the Dinette without stringing extension cords across the camper. I contemplated replacing the fans with more powerful units but have not. I considered replacing the wood used on the Bonus Bunk for better support. I considered installing a window into the entry door for light and seeing who is approaching the door. Show less

In the middle of January 22nd, 2024, I purchased a 2023 Heritage Glen LTZ 270FKS 820 From Bish’s RV in meridian Idaho. Right off the bat I found 19 things wrong with the Trailer: These items are: Hole and bubbling above the pantry door Kitchen drawers fell out when pulled (drawers fell because the back studs for the drawer rail brackets are not attached) Side support board for the drawers also not attached panel under the refrigerator was secured leaving a half inch crooked gap Trim around the large bubble window above kitchen sink fell off while towing home five miles away on city streets Main brace underneath bed split and not attached Back plate behind the stove not attached just lying loose All pull down blinds have Velcro tabs on the bottom bar of the blinds but nothing on the walls to attach them too (only half done) Blinds crooked on the two narrow windows in the bedroom Broken latch on refrigerator door Hinges for the storage doors underneath dining table benches loose and floating back and forth Trim around the pantry sagging and loose (no adhesive) lens cover on running lights missing Wires not wrapped or secured on electric jack by hitch Access panel door on bedroom slide out warped Shower door seal fell off when opening door Magnetic plate for bedroom door installed on a diagonal (all others level to the floor) Panel under the sink only attached on one side Keyhole on front door pried and bent (probably not manufacturing) These are the items I found in the first three hours of possession and this morning I took it back to the dealership. I talked to the Director of service, Bish's RV in Meridian Idaho and showed him the issues I had, in which he documented and took possession of for immediate service, and I asked him to go through the whole RV to find the things I didn't find, (which scares me). So, I guess what my questions is where do we go from here, what is going to be done about this situation, I paid close to $50,000.00 for your product and the condition of the RV does not reflect that, (was it built on a Friday?). I sent an email to Bish’s and Forest River with this list of problems on Jan 23rd to Bish’s and Forest River, in which Bish’s took back the trailer and submitted it for warranty work. I’ve nbeen trying to resolve these issues for months now and more things are going wrong: The air conditioner ducting was not connected, and all the cold air was coming out from under the kitchen sink The one and only camping trip we went on the 11nth of April, we had to keep the speed of my towing below 50mph because the back of the trailer swayed wildly, (and it never did that before) This trailer has been in the shop more than out of the shop, and the kicker is Idaho doesn’t have an RV lemon Law. I would really appreciate it if you could Get at least one of these companies, if not both, to make right. Thank Show less

I liked the larger gas oven and 4 burner cook top. I also liked the colors. I've had several leaks which most have been taken care of by the dealer, Camping World of Asheville, until the shower was never fixed. It still leaks from underneath and the sliding glass door leaks profusely when the rain comes from that side. I called again to have them come out and fix what they hadn't fixed and they said it would cost $200 for the service call. I said it was never fixed. Come to find out this Camping World doesn't have a mobile repair van. So I'm at their mercy, until I contacted Forest River they informed me that, that Camping World doesn't have a mobile, that's why I have to pay. During the email they sent me what I needed to do for the warranty work and a list of the mobile repair places that they authorize and they will reimburse me whatever the cost. So I'm awaiting the phone call for the repair people to come out and do the repairs. My unit is a permanent unit therefore I can't tow it. Show less
