Keystone Cougar reviews

Love the layout. Overall construction quality is average. Several trim pieces have had to be replaced, table had to be screwed back in the wall after the first trip. Shower leaked from not being sealed properly. Cabinet construction is not the best. Tankless Water heater is too far from the shower and kitchen so it is a 20 second wait for water to heat up. However, the size of the unit and the overall layout are wonderful for a couples camper. Show less

We purchased our Cougar 25RDS brand new (custom order) from a local RV dealer in 2021 and have used it for various trips May - Oct each year. It's ideal for a couple, but we have brought our 6' adult son with us on a few trips. He was able to sleep on the large convertible dining table. The openness of the living area is fantastic. However, the tight bedroom drives me crazy. We had to immediately replace the horrible mattress. The fridge broke 3x. The roof lining bubbled even though we cover it every year and check sealants. These occurred within warranty but not all repairs were covered. Keystone resists paying for warrantied items. There are other minor items breaking that my husband can fix. Show less

Immediately after purchasing new last year the front cargo area filled with water and water leaked from the front window onto the bed. Took it back to the dealer (who has since been bought out during it;s bankrupcy) and they said factory did not seal it the front cap. This took 2 months to resolve. At the beginning of this season I had the roof inspected by a licensed tech and inspector and discovered the TPO membrane completely delaminating and bubbling. The RV dearler said roof needs replacement. KEYESTONE DENIED coverage multiple times. I still own the trailer, still using it and watching the TPO bubble off. Many other issues like water pump, on demand heater. This trailer is garbage. Show less

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. Show less

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. Show less

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. Show less

About the only positive in this review regarding the Keystone Cougar product is the towability. We purchased the 2020 Cougar 29RLKWE with the expectation of this being a higher quality travel trailer. Much to our surprise, I was more than disappointed by its quality, livability, and specifically the warranty or lack thereof during Covid. We had ample communication with dealership with all documented and still left to pay the repair bills. Recently we had another issue with the floor, service manager where it was purchased told me they have seen this area fail many times. I spoke with Keystone and the dealership and mentioned what was said, denied, nothing they could do, out of warranty. I am a small business owner and wouldn't dream of telling people that I didn't care, and sorry man you have to deal with a below average product and fix it yourself. All you potential RV people, do yourself a favor, read reviews and learn from their experiences. Buyer beware !!! We are nearing retirement age and have several friends looking to buy an RV, I definitely won't recommend anything by Keystone, Buy yourself a tent, you'd be happier ! Show less

We went cross-country in this perfect couples trailer. We were always able to comfortably get to every part of the trailer, including the full bathroom, even with the slide in. The theater seating with heat, massage and accent lighting is so comfortable. The trailer size was perfect for those state and older campgrounds with smaller sites, and we were always accepted with our 26ft total length and 30amp power, where bigger units might not have fit. Boondocking was facilitated with the 400i solar package with (2) rooftop solar panels and inverter, and an additional exterior solar expansion outlet. With the solar, we camped free on public land 2 miles outside Glacier National Park. Awesome! There are also (2) 30lb Pulling is easy with the sway-bars and double axles with our Ram 1500 truck. Windows EVERYWHERE - the views are total surround, but with blackout shades for privacy when wanted. Plenty of cabinets & drawers for storage plus passthru storage. I can't say that warranty service was good, but overall - this travel trailer can't be beat! Show less

This RV is amazing for long term living. Great kitchen and amazing bedroom. Several beds for multiple people. Lots of storage. Built before COVID so the quality is there. I have had very little issued with the RV. I would buy this model again. Show less

Small things. Probably caused by horrible roads bouncing it around. Happy with it. Would purchase again. Maintenance required for ownership. Don't shy away from new or newer units. Always have nay sayers with no facts to support what they are saying. Show less
