Consumer Reviews & Ratings - Should I take them seriously?

A good review that says" Great RV" two days after the purchase doesn't mean much.
Also a long rant about every little thing that is wrong is equally useless.
Read as many reviews as you can find about the unit your interested in and you will get a pretty good idea what to expect. If you are somewhat handy most problems can be fixed by you. If you expect perfection, spend a million bucks and you will come close.
