We have a 2013 33CKTS. Have had a few minor and one major problem but all were taken care of with no problems under warranty at our dealer. We love the floor plan and the fit and finish of our Sabre and would recommend it to anyone looking for very nice fiver at a moderate price.

I'm in my second season with mine. I having issues with one of the Schwintek slides that is going to send the camper back to the factory in a couple of weeks.

But, overall - we're very happy with the camper.

We're on our 2nd year with our Sabre. When we were looking/shopping the 34REQS-6 filled our needs and wants list the best in our price point. We custom ordered ours with thermopane windows and all the other goodies. Only problems were the kitchen faucet handle kept on coming loose, dealer ordered us a whole new faucet, and one of the day/night strings broke, dealer got us a new one. We are very pleased with the quality, construction, fit & finish, and our dealer, Freedom RV out of Slinger WI (2nd camper we purchased from them).

We have owned a 2010 Sabre, 31RETS for 2 years. Spent 2 winters in it down south and several camping trips. We bought it used from a private person. I think for the money, it is a very good value. We didn't have any issues to speak of. I don't think the insulation is the best, a little cool on cold nights, just added another blanket. We are now going full time and trading it in for a Big Horn.

We just bought a 2014 Sabre 33RETS and my BIL just bought the 2013 of the same model. For the most part, I would say that the quality is pretty good, not better not worse than the 2012 Keystone TT we traded in. Satisfactory.

Like all new units, we found some bugs, but they were not construction related. Our off-brand bedroom TV has twice been replaced, and for the 3rd strike I now have cash from the dealer to purchase something better. The air mattress popped. It was definitely low quality. The replacement is now the spare. My BIL's ceiling fan quit, and he found some construction material clogging the air vents which he pulled out. Otherwise, it heats and cools as it's supposed to. We haven't found any leaks, with the exception of running a brand new air conditioner on the most humid day of the year, caused some minor condensation inside the unit.

The design made good use of storage space. The lighting is great. It feels perfectly stable when parked, no movement at all. The controls are smartly placed. Nice countertops, light fixtures and furniture. I'd say so far, we're both pretty happy with our purchases.

I toured the factory. Was not impressed. They are offering JT Strongarms as a factory option for the first time this year. That's a step in the right direction. If you want quality, check out big horn, Cedar Creek or Cardinal IMHO.
