2015 Sanibel 3700 GOOD OR BAD?

I am looking at getting a used 2015 Sanibel 3700. I have read some horror stories but never really know what to believe. Has anyone on here had an issue with them?
  • Out of curiosity, we stopped and looked at the Sanibel trailers with some friends.

    They look pretty, but the fit and finish was poor. I also noted that the tires were the minimum they could get by with and were Chinese. The axles, springs and tires looked under sized.

    I was not impressed with them.

    Hi there. I'm also "in the market" & have learned a lot by lurking on the owner forums. You might want to check out this one, if you haven't already.

    Good luck!


    You looking for a bunkhouse? 5er or TT?


    Me? I'm looking for a gently used rear bath model TT <= 25 ft with a strong preference for Northwood, Outdoor or Lance manufacturer. Need a true 4-season RV. If I have to go to the NW to get it, so be it. Don't need a bunkhouse (it is just me) and will be towing with a Ford E350.
  • I met someone at last years Grand Design rally that wasn't pleased with their less than one year old Sanibel and traded for a GD Solitude
