I haven't had any problems with my tires and they are 7 years old. Too make the tires last longer and have fewer problems you need to keep the air at maximum as specified on the side of the tire. Check when cold.

Rubber Roof tip on Dutchmen....every few months you need to get on the roof and inspect the caulk around pipes and joints...the caulk cracks and will leak....get a tube of caulk and clean crack and touch up to seal off.

I have a 2007 dutchmen 25f and love it. No problems at all. This is my 4th trailer and by far the best.The only thing is i wish you could lower the electric hot water temperature for it is way too hot, but I can live with that. Dutchmen make good trailers.

I have a 2007 Denali and could not be happier, converter went out, but that is not the manufactures fault, neither are the leaks some people have. Read your owners manual, it says right in there to check for leaks every 90 days. Trailers being pulled down these rough roads are bound to have problems. Appliances and tires are not the fault of Dutchmen. I have been camping for 35 years and have had several campers and Thor products are one of the best. If you have a Colorado or a Denali or any other name other than Dutchmen, its not a Dutchmen. They are just owned by the same company that owns Dutchmen. Please don’t bash Dutchmen if you do not own one.

We have a 2002 Dutchmen Lite 25QB we bought it in 03 as a close out. We have enjoyed it until a few days ago. When we went to pull it and the front left corner started to open up and found it was a full of water damage we just had it serviced and the dealer fixed a leak on the rear window we had no ideal it was leaking up front. The dealer said they have problems with the water standing in the channel trim and sepping up. Not very happy with are trailer at this time. It is only half paid for and it will need serious work. Our old trailer was a 78 and in better shape then this one at the time.

My husband and I have a 1996 36FBS Classic and have never had a minute's trouble with it. It still looks new inside and out. Super good construction and over the years, they style is still quite in date. We did research several campers and makes prior to this purchase and we are still (after 12 years) delighted with it and the way it has held up, even with 12 years of four grandchildren. Still a pleasure, Dutchman, still the best!

I have a 2007 dutchmen Colorado 2f this trailer is not cheap , only have had it for 9 months and had the floor and wheel well flares split open this winter .I live Canada and Dutchmen will not cover because they say are winter are to cold .I think they should have a look at the material product they put in and how they put it in .There is lot of trailer floors that spilt and Dutchmen and the dealers selling are not covering off.So much for buying a trailer with that is back by them.

I own a 1998 30ft Dutchman that we just love. We have had it going on two years now and have not had any problems. We use it almost every weekend out on our lake property. I would recommend a Dutchman to anyone who is seriously looking for a good quality travel trailer.

My 2003 Dutchmen Lite 26QB-SSL had factory slide seals improperly installed that allowed water to deteroriate slide wall and floor over time. The slide began to sway in and out while towing. Even though factory warranty had expired, I felt they should reimburse me. They would not talk to me or the repair shop. I wrote Wade Thompson, president of Thor Industries. He didn't even respond. Be sure to inspect for water damage in hidden places before your factory warranty is out. No more Thor products for me.

Spend your thousands of dollars on a leaky tarp! You will at least be able to dispose of it. My 1996 26.5 RL fell apart after a couple years. Sorry construction and workmanship

We have a 2007 Dutchmen 37 sdsl with 3 pullouts and 1 1/2 baths . We love it the layout is second to none

We have had our 2004 27BS model Dutchmen for 2 seasons and we love it. The storage was the selling point for us. Now we have just traded up to a 30SDL and hope to enjoy it as much as we do the 04.

We have owned 3 different Dutchmen trailers in the past ten years. We have loved all of them and never had a problem with any them. When it's time to trade again I am sure we will pick another Dutchmen!

I have a 1998 Dutchman, I think it is great and lived in it as a camp host.
Had a roof leak a couple years ago but was able to repair. Never found the actual cause? As we are two large people a slide is a must for our next one. That 30L DSL looks good!

I just want to say I have a 2006 Dutchmen 26FB DSL and it's given us nothing but pleasure. I think they're great value and we've had very few problems.
