I'm looking for any input, good or bad on this fifth wheel, also how do Forest River products fit in, ie high end, middle, or low end for price and quality.

Thanks.

We have a 2014 Columbus 365RL that we purchased in June. We used it 9 times this year on trips ranging from weekends to 2 weeks. Other than a few minor issues that were fixed by the dealer be could not be happier. We looked for about 1 year and had narrowed our choice down to Montana & Columbus. We felt the Columbus was a little better built, had more amenities, and cost less.

We really like our rear kitchen 5er and would probably stay with one on our next rig. This would be on out short list. Only things I would like to change is a little larger bathroom and lighter color on the woodwork. Nice one for you to consider.

Forest River makes several different lines.
I am now on my 3rd Forest River product.
2001 Sierra trailer, 2006 Sierra 5th wheel, now 2012 Sierra 5th wheel.
We ended up with Sierra each time because we found what we liked in our price range. There are certainly better coaches but a lot more money. IMO this is the most for the money.
We had a major problem with out 06. Forest River took care of our problem, went overboard to comensate us and treated us like they really cared. After that service experience, I knew it was a good company.
I consider the Sierra very much in the middle. You can buy better and you can buy worse but dollar for dollar we're happy.

Forest River has multiple companies which run from high end to middle to mostly low end campers.
