We love this RV, we have 2 kids and the bunk space was perfect for them. There is also a lot of storage under the lower bunk. The kitchen has everything you need and big closet when you walk in the door. It also has a 2nd door in the bathroom so you can just come in from the outside and get right in the shower or to use the restroom without going in the rest of the camper. Ours had 2 AC units so keeping the camper cool was never a problem. Lots of space in the master as well. Overall great camper and we never had any issues.

We looked at smaller RVs first but felt they would be too cramped for us. My priority was a large kitchen with lots of counter space and lots of storage throughout, which this model delivers! The large panoramic kitchen window allows whoever is working in the kitchen to enjoy the view. I love the skylight in the bathroom and all the light from the windows. The clothes storage is enough for a lady with a large four season wardrobe! In the colder weather is so cozy to sit in the recliners with built in massage or heated seat, in front of the fireplace and watch the big screen TV or listen to the radio. Whether it was below zero or above 100 degrees, we were always comfortable. We always kept the exterior and interior immaculate.

We recently upgraded to the Cougar 32RLI, we were looking for more area in the living room, kitchen and bedroom this fit all of those needs. The great amount of storage, electrical and USB outlets also sold us.
When we were looking we thought the bathroom layout was good, however, this is the one room I think they fell short on design and practical functionality. Unless you are 6 foot tall (I am 5 ft 5 inches) it is impossible to reach the switch to open or turn on the ventilation fan. I have rigged up a stick so be able to reach it. A more accessible switch would have been nice. The other thing we first thought was that the cabinets were great for storage, however, they are so deep unless you are tall or add pull out shelves it is a waste of space. The lower open shelf would be great for adding a pull out shelf but the toilet is higher and would impede a shelf from extending more than a few inches. Finally the doors on the cabinets open over the toilet and don’t give you much room to get to anything you may have stored there. Other than the bathroom we are extremely happy with this model and will learn to live with these few issues.

First night driving down the road-both ceiling speakers fell down from ceiling. Not secured in flimsy ceiling right. 500 miles from dealer and not driving back. DIY a fix to keep them in ceiling. Less than two weeks into trip both bug screens are falling down. Plastic tabs gone in 3 out of 4 places. Electric plug to tow vehicle coming apart. Interior frame on paneling at head of king bed was not put together correctly. Gap so big you could put your hand through space from bottom to halfway up window.
Got service center to do warranty item repairs, however more showed up after warranty was over after one season of use. Roof leaking around wireless satellite receiver, roof seams, 2 out of four downspouts, front of trailer, back of trailer seams all gapping now. Realize we only used the trailer one month in 2022 after we bought it. 2023 was spent in service center due to parts shortages and whatever. We only spotted leak on seat cushion when we went to pick it up from center and they hunted down all the gaps. (we hope!). Then the electrical plug for the 2 lazy boy seat features stopped working and the service center has to hunt down the cause. All fuses checked out okay.
Theater style seating was held back on platform by 4 screws at an angle to try and keep them on it during travel> Failed to do so every time. we had to move them back on the platform each time. Good idea, poor execution. I would avoid this feature at all costs and go with standard sofa.
After all thesse headaches and the way Keystone says the big interior frame gap is "within factory specs and not a warranty item" we are trading this trailer as fast as we can in May 2024 for a different brand.

I would not recommend a Keystone. Very poor quality in workmanship to the doors and cabinets. We’ve taken the trailer on two trips so far (weekend trips) and already the bedroom door has fallen off its track and the shower door handle has broken off. The exterior molding is starting to come loose causing a leakage issue behind the canopy. Too many other problems for this small space, and up until now Keystone has covered the parts and repairs. But my biggest concern is the refrigerator stopped working . The dealership evaluated the issue and said a $300+ repair is needed to replace a wiring diode kit. Keystone will not authorize the repair, stating that “fuses” are not covered. So after six days of use, I have an unusable fridge unless I fork over $300 to fix something I had no control over. I don’t think that’s acceptable after giving them over $40k for a trailer.

Barely used it as it was in the service department more than we actually had it, chasing a never-ending heating and refrigeration issue. I will never buy a Cougar again, just dumped this three-year-old trailer for a six-year-old fifth wheel.

We've never had any problems with anything. We pull it with a 2019 Chevy Silverado half ton. It pulls wonderful! I would recommend this camper to anyone. Just keep in mind that like anything else, when buying used it all depends on how the previous owner took care of it .

The company makes a big deal of its automotive windshield. We bought a 2022 22MLS June 2022. After we left the Colorado dealer and began heading on the home many many hundreds of miles away, noted several days later that the frame and the interior paneling had a gap on the driver’s side. You could only see it if you were laying in bed looking up at it or viewing it from the side. The gap was big enough to slide your hand through up from bottom of frame to 14″.
Took numerous photos and had a dealer submit claim when we got home in Alaska. Keystone says: “The “gap” is within factory spec, no warranty claim approved”. Really? Luckily, it does not leak water, just looks awful. The passenger side windshield frame is snug against the interior paneling with no gap. Go figure. Sent in email requesting reconsideration of claim. Nope. Go pound sand. Never again Keystone, you lost a customer for life.

Overall we like the size and weight. We know it's an entry level trailer, but really built poorly. It has construction flaws and it looks like Dutchman put everything into it that was broken. As soon as we got it home the air conditioner didn't work. We weren't able to use it the first year so the first time we used it was 8/30/22. toilet leaks couldn't use it. Tge microwave won't open. Dutchman said use website to find nearest location . Called Rv sales and they won't make appointment until next month. I have someplace to go ,but can't leave with a broke down piece of crap. The Hell of it is Dutchman is only 70 miles away, but I can't take to where it was built. I'm not a happy owner.

We bought our travel trailer with intention of keeping the family camping tradition going. The camper is laid out decent although you MUST have all the slides out to get into the camper, no exceptions. The quality of product is horrible! They were pushing quantity instead of quality. The wall trim is "pieced" together with square edges, no detail. The walls themselves are able to be pressed in no matter where you are pushing. Their was a recall on the 4th month we have had it due to electrical issues. The shower is cheaply put together and the edges didn't match at all so I had to put clear putty in so the floor wouldn't flood. The steps were not done properly so no additional railing can be done because the drill holes do NOT match anything out there. Storage in living area and bedroom was NOT thought through and is no existent in the living area. The best thing we do like about this is that we all fit without being on top of one another. The tradition continues, but again, quantity over quality really played a key here in making of this camper.
