Leisure Travel Class B reviews

We recently purchased our RV used from a dealer in California. We had to drive the vehicle home to Iowa from there (2 1/2 days!) The RV served us well and we were able to test out many of the features along the way ( with a learning curve of course). This RV fits just the both of us perfectly and we look forward to many outings. The Mercedes Sprinter is absolutely all that is touted and so many features. We were able to use the bed without putting the slide out, which is important. I wanted a new unit, but the two plus year wait was too long, so I shopped and researched the used market. Love it so far. Show less

I consider myself a Goldilocks of camping vehicles. I started with a teardrop, upgraded to a 34' Class C, and landed on the LTV Unity 24FX, and it is truly a perfect fit. It's a luxurious way to travel with just enough room, great flexibility, and easy maneuverability. Not only do I have the confidence that the chassis and engine are top of the line, I know the Leisure Travel Van reputation is exemplary. It's a higher priced unit, but quality and confidence aren't cheap. It's not a palace in a box (Class A), but has soft leather seats, a "real" luxury mattress, lots of little extras, and a bathroom and kitchen that actually function like home. In addition, the macerator makes managing the black and grey tanks a breeze. I love her!!! Show less

This is a great rv made by a top line manufacturer. It drives great, 14mpg towing and 17mpg without a tow. It lives well, lots of daylight, very roomy feeling, large galley area, lots of convenient storage both inside and out. Truma,s Aqua Go water heater provides limitless hot water on demand with a circulation system that provides instant hot water eliminating the waste of waiting for hot water to arrive at the faucet. The AC system cools effectively and has a heat pump to use while plugged in to shore power saving your lap gas for when needed. The twin beds easily convert to a nice size queen for very comfortable sleeping. It has the peace of mind provided by being built on a Ford chassis. There’s over 3000Ford dealers across the country for whatever service might be needed. Compare that to about 300 Mercedes dealers many of which will not service their van products. Show less

We did quite a bit of research before we bought this RV--our first BTW--and it was quickly narrowed down to Leisure and Coachman. When we visited our RV dealer in Ft Worth, TX they had a Unity for sale. Upon inspection and a test drive, we knew that the Leisure brand was the kind of top quality we were looking for. It turns out that the one we purchased had only 4,000 miles on it as the owner had been transferred to Europe and took it back to the dealer with orders to sell it and then have another one with the exact same equipment ready for him when he returned to the US in 3 years. So we basically got a nearly new unit with a discount. From the get go we loved this RV for its drivability, and by that I mean top handling, excellent MPG (that surprised me!) and the ability to take it anywhere and park it anywhere. (Heck, I've even angle parked this in the middle of a town square--only 23 ft long.) We also have enjoyed the Murphy bed for the way it disappears at night, giving us more space during the daytime. (We did convert it to manual dropdown at the factory in Canada; I've always been worried about it stalling in mid-stream electric fold down.) I did not admire the original mattress, so we had a custom one made--not cheap, but worth it. The dinette table is nice too for mealtime, and can be stowed away after use. One of our top priorities was a separate enclosed shower (I hated the thought of a "wet" bathroom) and the Unity has a great enclosed shower in the rear. The toilet and sink are fine, never had a problem. The fridge has always worked fine although we lost the microwave when it shorted out on a faulty electrical shore connection (we have recently replaced it with a brand new one). The pullout pantry next to the fridge is great and saves a good deal of cupboard space. We travel with our golf clubs so the exterior tall storage space is perfect for that. All of the exterior connects are solid and intuitive, and the on-demand water heater is great for not worrying about running out of shower water. We almost never boondock, although I love the security of having the Onan generator for backup, should we need it. The crank-out awning is great for extended or sunny stays, and the exterior outlets are helpful. We rarely watch TV when we travel but for those who do, the satellite is one handy feature. The AC- heat pump is pretty reliable as we have traveled to both hot and cold regions and have used it on cool and heat settings. I do love the powered ceiling fans, which gives us a way to cool off the interior in a hurry. Bonus: they close automatically if it starts to rain. We added a Sirius radio system to our Unity as I must have my Oldies music on the road. I also added a security system, which my wife demanded. All in all, a great experience with what has been the perfectly sized and perfect handling RV for the two of us (and the dog!). You'll enjoy this unit, trust me. Show less

Excellent Mercedes Diesel Sprinter Chassis. Very dependable, trouble free, operation. Top quality build and design. Workmanship and materials are outstanding. Still looks like anew rig. Currently on-sale at RTV for$125,000.00. Huge demand of Leisure products,backlog at Gactory on Canada. Highly recommend! Thanks. Show less

I drove 410 miles to see this 2006 leisure rv asked for fax never scene one oil leaking out of turbo alot of little things need attention not vary helpful not honest people 160.000 miles asked questions got no answers asked about the oil leak on turbo thay play dumb Show less

Drives and handles like a dream! Best quality materials and workmanship out there hands down. Engineering and design are extremely clever, taking into account feedback from current owners. Multiplex lighting with accent, and the ability to turn the water pump on in the dry bath is a plus! Fridge/freezer that you can access from either side is probably my favorite feature - not sure why it took the industry this long to invent! Show less

We have had our RV going on three years now. Many travels East and West. Easy to park in regular spots, good on hills(we have diesel) especially out East, Ford chassis so easy to find dealers in emergencies. My only pet peeve, ordered bedding made for our specific RV but flat sheet is CONSTANTLY coming off in the night!😡 Help! Any advice? Show less

Loved this RV for the last 2 years. Love that there are two different areas to hang out so if people are on different sleep schedules there is a space for the other person to go. Also love the flexibility of the sleeping arrangements. I can go stay in a king with my husband but switch it to 2 twins if traveling with kids :) Show less

I was told I could add seatbelts to some of the rear seats but have not been able to find any shop that is willing to do this, so the rear seats are wasted and I can't take my grandkids with me which is why I bought this floor layout. Also, just got a flat tire on the inner rear which you can't see and the vehicle has NO low tire pressure warning system which is unfathomable. I have been waiting over 24 hours for Saferide, which is Leisure's roadside assistance company, to get me a tow truck. They never call me back and continue to drop the ball, so I am stranded and spending all my time calling them. A low pressure tire light would have alleviated this problem as I could have dealt with the issue immediately when the light went on instead of being captive to a horrible roadside assistance company. Have a defect in the wallpaper that the dealer can't fix. and lastly, the local service dealer Fretz RV in PA was horrible to work with and I wrote them up separately in another review. Basically if you live in the northeast, there is nobody to do reasonable warranty work on this vehicle. Show less
