Who here has purchased a new popup and is very happy with it? (no major problems, etc.)


It seems like there are quality issues on a lot of new popups, but there has to be a significantly larger number of owners that are satisfied owners.


If you have had significant issues, don't post them here.


I only want to see how many folks are happy with their purchase. (the silent majority?)

So far we're happy with our Jayco Sport 10... Only have set it up in the driveway. We'll know better after our first trip this weekend.

We love our Jayco 1207. It is the perfect popup for our family. No problems to report so far. I've tried to make sure that I have kept up with maintenance.

We bought a Viking 2460st new in '99. We did not experience any major issues for the 12 years we owned it. The refrigerator stopped working, at least efficiently, after two seasons but once I found the portal,and did some research, I discovered that it was some insulation that worked it's way out onto the fins which was the issue. Cleaned everything up and it worked great for several years there after. The portal has great insight into maintenance issues which if people follow they could have many years of trouble free use.

We bought an 08 Bayside brand new from McPhails in Harriston ON and have zero complaints about the pup or the dealer, we store it in the garage and it still looks new!

We've had our Flagstaff since March, and so far, so good. A couple of minor issues, loose Velcro and a bed end track insert thing came out, but the dealer has been great and repairs have been prompt and haven't kept us from our camping plans.

We've bought 2 PUPs brand new. We bought a new StarCraft in 2001 and we bought this Clipper. We had to take each of them back for simple warranty work once after buying each of them but other than that, no problems with either of them.

I have had 2 new campers...no major problems. I used to work in the service end of the automobile industry. I got quite a sour view on our products due to the fact that all I got to see we're the problems. It soured my view of the product.

Happy customers seldom speak up

I loved, and love my Jayco (s)

I bought a 2012 Livin Lite Quicksilver 6.0 and love it- no problem at all. I wanted something small (so it would fit inside of my 2-car garage along with the two cars that are already parked in there), lightweight (so I could tow it with my 4-cylinder Sebring convertible), built well (so I wouldn't have any future maintenance issues), and comfortable.

Bought our 2012 Jayco Sport 8 brand new in May 2012. Had a few minor issues, but nothing big and nothing that we couldn't repair ourselves. Had an excellent experience with the dealer too.

I bought a 2008 Evolution E3 and so far very pleased. I have noticed nothing more than wear and tear from previous owners and stuff I would expect to degrade due to use. No major craftsmanship issues yet.

On that note I will be replacing the water heater with an propane in-line water heater, and adding a few things like 12 volt plugs, LED lights, an outdoor shower enclosure and adding another battery or solar panel to trickle charge the one I have.

We bought a Jayco Jay Series 1006 and are loving it. The only problem I have had is the hot water knob on the sink has broken twice. Now I just take it off prior to packing up and put it on when we set up camp.

We purchased a used (sight unseen other than photos) 2010 Quick Silver 10.0 this past May (got to go get it at the end of June) and were pleasantly surprised that it came with everything that it would have if we had of bought that years model brand new. On our way home we had proof that the roof did not leak. :)

We have loved having the pup and look forward to camping in it many more years.

I call it "Little Big Red" because when it is popped up it looks so huge, even on the inside, but it fits perfectly in our garage it is so small when collapsed.

It's good to hear about the good trailers people have. Keep 'em coming!

On my 2013 Rockwood 1940 the only issue that I had was one the clips that hold the door at the top in place was slightly off position with the slot. I corrected this at home. No returns yet...
