quality

Hi everyone! I just purchased a 22 bighorn traveler , of course no warranty even though it was owned less than a year (red flag?). I see soo many reports of failures and quality issues with heartland, I thought they were well made? Does anyone here have anything good to say or should I be...

I’m looking at a 2016 Prowler 30PRLS which seems like a good deal, but my wife and I are leery about buying after all the negative posts. We’re just going to park it on our site and it will never move again. Please give us some advice. We bought a new class a at the Tampa RV show one year and...

I've been researching RVs for a while now and am frustrated by the poor RV manufacturing quality at all levels and lack of customer service (to mention just two frustrations). I recently read an interesting eight-part series of articles entitled: "The RV Industry Death Spiral," written by Greg...

We recently purchased a new 2008 cyclone 3612. 1 of all, a cupboard door fell off due to the hinges not having long enough screws to hold it to the door. Then we had issues with the water heater. Our water started boiling out outside and heater would not shut off. It was a bad sensor. Now...

I have a few trailer construction queries regarding my 2011 Prowler. Firstly, when we first purchased our prowler I noticed what appeared to be a defect in the construction. On the front of the trailer where the Diamond Plated Front Rockguard is installed it appears to be not long enough to...

I replied to the post on delamination but wanted to post this here as well and get others opinions. I am presently dealing on a new 2009 3580 Big Horn. We like the trailer a lot. I have given a deposit and was supposed to take delivery in 10 days. I got a good deal but still a lot of money...

I hate to beat a dead horse, but we just visited with some neighbors, who have a new, 3 week old, Landmark Grand Canyon. They have had it in the shop for 2 0f the 3 weeks they have owned it. It has had a multitude of problems from pipes to fixtures not being connected, bending a water line that...

It seems people post mostly when there is a problem. When all is going well, they usually don't take the time so I thought I give my initial impressions of my new 2010 Cyclone 3010. I drove from California to Ohio to pick it up. I wanted to do the pdi in person. This is after all a very big...

We just took delivery of a new 2010 ElkRidge, this 5vr came with the Jensen AWM970 Control Unit and JE3208 32" LCD TV. I am a pretty serious audio/video nut, coming from a 10' home theater setup to fulltime in the ElkRidge. Quite a change, but willing to live with it :) for all the awesome...

I have a question for the full timers. We don't full time because I still work but my work is on the road, therefore we are in our 2010 Sundance 3300SK for eight months out of the year. We took possesion of our unit last August 2008 and it seems there is something constantly going wrong or...

I have a Jensen system that works fine. DVD works good, radio does not have static and picks up well and all the speakers (front, outside and living room)switch like they should. What I dont like is the sound. I am not stereo electronic savy and really dont want to be. But I do want good...

Yes, it does happen on the Heartland production line and we are the happy owners of a new Sundance which has proved to be 100% trouble-free on the first 2000 mile leg of our 5000 mile shake-down trip. Comparing our new Sundance to our previous 2008 3400RL Bighorn, the air distribution from the...

Is just me or does there seem to be alot of whining on this forum about Quality control. I understand that we have spent alot of money on our campers and we want it to be perfect. Is it possible to manufacture a perfect RV ? How much time did we spend on our pre purchase inspection ? I have...

This past summer my wife and I purchased an 09 Sundance 3012RE 5th wheel. We love the layout and the functionality of the unit. We've camped 6-7 times this year and it gets sweeter each time we use it! Have had some quality control issues that my excellent local dealer has handled well. Both...

We bought a new Bighorn 3370 in June, during the PDI I noticed the rubber roof had way too many bubbles in it, a few and I would let it slide. First thing the dealer tells me is "they are all that way". I said the 10 year old one I sold had not one bubble in it. My question is are all the rubber...

Hello To All, This is my first post to this site. I am not a current Heartland 5th wheel owner but am strongly considering a purchase soon. Does anyone have any opinions or experience they would like to share regarding Big Horn or Big Country 5th wheel quality, good or bad? Thanks!
