2014 Forest River FR3 reviews

24.7 foot RV on Mercedes Benz chassis. 27,000 miles, perfect shape. Upgraded levelers, mostly in storage but drove it to Illinois 3 times. Runs on diesel and get in the 20s or better. 2 slides, bedroom slides out the back and another slide out makes the living room wider. 5 speed forward gears takes you over mountains with ease while towing. Tow vehicle is a 2017 6 speed manual shift honda civic imported from the UK. Tow vehicle not included but will add on for $19,000. 89,000 for RV.This vehicle is close to showroom perfection. Blue Ox tow bar included. Car breaking system extra. Show less

Incredible Coach that is big but on a small chassis. You can fit nearly anywhere with it. It has ALL the features that a more expensive coach would have besides the price tag. I would suggest this too easy camping for weekend warriors on a small family going countryside camping for long-distance. Show less

One of the poorest built trailers out there , after first season we replace both slider motors axle spring hanger broke stranded us on highway, and all molding was falling off, 2nd season had to replace slider motors again , and found out the welds on hitch itself was all broken and almost lost trailer , had to get a whole new frame welded on to the trailer our tongue weight is 2200 pounds with propane tanks full the whole quality of this trailer is just unbelievably cheap we put in another $12,000 over and above be on the cost of the trailer now that everything is done has been awesome but should’ve been sent out by the factory with all these upgrades and fixes we will never buy a forest river ever again Show less

We love our FR3! We have traveled from New England to Niagara Falls, to Maine and on to South Dakota, Colorado, Arizona, Texas and all of southeaster United States. From every aspect it has been a wonderful vehicle. Climbing the Rockies we thought would be challenging but it handled it fine and in 100' weather in Arizona the A/C performed wonderfully. Could not have selected a better one! The drop down bed just adds to the pleasure! Taking the grandkids, they fight over who is going to sleep there, the pull out bed is easy and my in-laws did not mind spending 3 weeks on it. The dinette is ideal for smaller children - I would say up to 10 - 2 fit comfortably. The master bedroom is pretty nice with a lot of storage. two closets, 5 drawers, and an overhead that we use for linens. We have 35,000 so we have had a lot of experience with it. Show less

We have had a very good experience with our MH. The open living area was the main selling point when we purchased it. We tow a CRV and don't even know it's back there. Drives and handles very nice with a few suspension upgrades. Excellent storage areas. Show less

What a cute toy! We bought ours used and the only problems have been from our own mistakes and the fact that the first owner left it in the sun which caused a few things to have issue such as the slide out hardware. You can't beat it for the price. Lots of room for 2 people! Noisy ride but I hear this is a gas engine thing not this brand. Funny I did read something in other comments about the front overhead magnets going weak. We are trying to do something with ours right now. Show less

I love our FR3. I would recommend it to anyone. The size is perfect for me and my husband. We have plenty of storage inside and out. The only negative are the headlights, but my husband added LED's and a LED light bar. Show less

For an entry level Class A not bad. There would appear to be little or no quality control at the point of manufacture. Like the layout very much however. Traded up fron a Forest River Sunseeker 31ss and had hoped for the same quality but te Sunseeker was much better made. Show less
