Starcraft Launch Ultra Lite reviews

We love the amount of storage, with loads of cabinet space, a full pantry, and the bunkhouse is second to none! It’s also a ton of space and privacy with two full bedrooms. For such a large trailer, it’s great it can be towed with some SUVs (we tow with a Ford Expedition Max). Most trailers with this much space require a heavy duty truck, but at 8,000 lbs this one tows nicely! Show less

My family and I have loved each of our experiences with this camper. That being said, we're sad to let it go. We're only selling it because of our middle child's demanding baseball schedule and lack of use over the last few years. As a family of five, we found the floorplan accommodating, spacious and comfortable. The only challenge we found concerning livability was the sleeping area mattresses. However, we were able to overcome that issue with the purchase of 4" foam mattress toppers. Now the unit is just as comfortable as our beds at home. With the majority of our camping trips being between 2-4 days, we were pleasantly surprised at the livability of this camper... Especially regarding the usage of water and power. In that regard, propane was never an issue, even when heating the camper in the colder destination. That being said, it’s always a good idea to bring an extra tank or two if you can. Overall, the camper is extremely light, especially considering all of the creature comforts it's outfitted with. That coupled with purchasing a trailer hitch that included anti-sway stabilizing (sway bars), I can honestly say we never encountered any issues pulling this camper, even on the most challenging roads under the most challenging conditions. With the extra five inches of ground clearance included in the "Extreme" model, we found there was almost no terrain we couldn't access! Show less

We bought a 2016 StarCraft Launch 26RLS in January 2016. This is absolutely, without a doubt, the biggest piece of junky trash we have ever wasted money on. There were issues from day 1, starting with non-working awning lights that took 6 weeks to have fixed due to the dealership refusing service after the sale. It was a simple fix that shouldn’t have been overlooked to begin with. It seemed alright until the warranty ran out. After that, it was 1 problem after another. The DVD player quit working. The water connection was having to constantly be worked on due to leaks. The awning CAME OFF while my husband was driving down the road. As in, it ripped completely off, taking the rails & all. So much for the awning lights, right? The toilet leaked. A side window latch broke off. Water heater quit working. The side shelves on either side of the bed came loose & had to be fastened back up. The cabinet between the 2 chairs came apart & had to be fastened back together. The chairs themselves started peeling. Had to keep them covered to hide it. Did I mention the constant issues with leaks? Because the latest issue was when the bed collapsed. When my husband went underneath to see why this happened & how he could repair yet another problem with this trash, he found that the front wall (on the tow end) was a soggy mess. Apparently, it’s been leaking from the outside the entire time we owned this brand spanking new travel trailer. I was so excited to get this camper. And it’s been nothing but a major disappointment. They should be ashamed of this shoddy, pathetic workmanship. This was a complete & total waste of hard earned money. We will NEVER buy another one of their products. Show less

Perfect for my wife and I, works well for having visitors. The furnace did need a switch fix after 1 year and a couple other issues but nothing to bad. All seals in windows work well no leaks, we love this trailer and plan on keeping for years. Easy to park and fits in most spots. Recommend. Show less

Worst quality travel trailer ever! First year flooded the inside and multiple issues! StarCraft is a joke don’t ever buy this trash company trailers! You’re worst nightmare ever! Everything seems to fall apart and terrible service to fix it! Show less

We have really enjoyed our star Craft Launch Ultra Lite 28BHS. Quality, floor plan,pulls behind our Ford Expedition excellent. Was actually pleasantly surprised with how well it stays insulated in the winter time as well as Cooling in the summertime. It has the Four Season package which is an insulated floor, Bruce, and all double payne windows. Absolutely love the LED lighting and is very bright. Storage is comfortable and surprisingly more than expected. The wheels and tires look great and have a load range C capacity then, which is great. Overall very pleased. Show less

Very well made camper. The extras in the arctic package are so nice to have and truly make a difference. Love the happy Jack bunk beds for cargo space when needed. Almost like a mini toy hauler without losing all the space like a toy hauler. The home like ac/heat ducting system is very comfortable everywhere in the camper. Pulls excellent. Tons of storage and very happy with our 2015 Starcraft Launch. Show less

I purchased a new 2020 Starcraft within 10 months and and a half dozen camping trips the roof membrane pulled out from the side of the camper, warranty did cover that. 4 months after the one year warranty I noticed a soft floor below the escape window. returned it to the dealer and the contacted Starcraft and was told that windows are not covered under warranty so the damage is not covered. the camper has been maintained as per the owners manual. windows were sealed on the outside and kept under a carport. I now have a 2020 camper with $15000 damage because of poor quality and starcraft says sorry. Show less

Nothing but problems. I was ok dealing with the little stuff. Then the rubber membrane on my roof started coming up along the sides. It was installed incorrectly. The trailer is 1 year 6 months old! StarCraft says it's not they're problem. The cost to repair.... $6500! CRIMINALS!!!! Show less

Poor quality and terrible warranty support. Do not buy a Starcraft or Jayco product. Axles bent, uneven tire wear, AC does not work, fridge broken, jacks broken all around. Manufacturer and repair teams refuse to address issues. Warranty is worthless. Choose any other manufacturer. Show less
