The good: The layout is excellent, with plenty of room to walk around inside, even with four people in the camper. Have had as many as eight people camp over night in it. Air conditioner is loud but keeps the camper cold, even on hot days. Furnace is adequate size, and was able to keep the camper warm on a couple of December nights - melted snow off the tent beds. Super-fast and convenient setup, with cable-supported tent beds and a power awning - 15 minutes from arriving at the campsite to cooking dinner. The bad: total and complete lack of quality control. Obviously assembled using a pneumatic stapler by someone who forgot to wear their glasses that day. Staples stick out of random places to rip your clothes, etc. Front bench made out of a handful of 1x1s haphazardly stapled together, so it sagged badly with just one person sitting on it - had to reinforce it and add angle brackets due to concerns about it collapsing. Tents for the tent beds are sloppily installed, and have begun to separate from the body of the camper because they are attached by a metal screw blasted through thin plastic, with no washer or reinforcement. As mentioned in other reviews, the diamond plate on the front isn't sealed, so water leaks into camper if towed in the rain. Poor front-to-rear weight balance; must put all gear in the front of the camper to get it to behave when towing (with Nissan Titan 1/2 ton pickup). Low cargo capacity - less than 500lbs that includes propane, battery, water in tanks and gear - meaning most of your gear has to go in your tow vehicle. Much of the interior is fiberboard with a wood-colored sticker on it or just plain cardboard, so even if you're REALLY careful you could wind up seriously damaging your interior. Very poor-quality and poorly-designed no-name stabilizer jacks; they bent the first time I set up the camper - replaced them with a set of BALs at my own expense. Thin, sloppy paint that flakes off the metal frame in sheets - spent an afternoon last summer re-painting with Rustoleum in the vain hope that the frame will last as long as the loan I took out to buy this thing. The verdict: don't. Just don't. These things are poorly-made junk carelessly assembled from the poorest-quality materials available. If my camper is any indication of what Starcraft produces, they need to go out of business.

We have owned this trailer for over 7 years and have used it 5-6 times per year. It has been a great trailer! The only problem we have ever had with it is the heater stopped working at the end of last year. That was recently repaired so it's back to full functionality! The only reason we are getting rid of the trailer is that my in-laws are giving us their RV that they don't use anymore...otherwise, we'd continue to use this trailer. We love how the slide out and beds close up to a small trailer that is easy to tow, but expands to a very roomy trailer when fully setup. There is a TON of storage in this trailer which made it very easy for us to load up all the stuff needed for our family of 3 kids and 2 dogs. The trailer is in EXCELLENT condition and ready for another family to enjoy!

I purchased my travel trailer brand new in June of 2015. In the first summer we noticed quit a few things wrong, some where manufacturing defects like squeaks in the floor that are absolutely unbearable. You cannot walk from the bedroom to the bathroom with waking the kids up. When I addressed this to individuals who represent , I was told"your trailer must have been built on a Friday" and "you are just going to have to live with it" The sink has a big crack in it,a lot of the interior and exterior trim is coming off (lack of staples,finishing nails and glue). The paint on the front cap has faded terribly and looks horrible. There are many more defects and/or issues with our trailer and even trying to deal with Starcraft direct has been a tuff experience. I would not recommend purchasing a Starcraft to anybody.
