We bought this at beginning of May of 2024. Got it at Camperworld in WVA. Absolutly Love it! Put it at a campground in north western PA. Got alot of compliments from other campers and from people when we made a lunch stop. Looks great traveling beind our White F150. Fav pcs is fridge n walk out bathroom. 18:31

[@briangray1720]

YOUR F-150 PULLS IT OK WITHOUT ANY ISSUES, JUST WAS ASKING, CAUSE THESE LOOK LIKE THE PERFECT TRAILORS. AND I DONT WANNA HAVE TO UPGRADE MY TRUCK THX

[@ryad40]

I love it i bought it at campworld birchrun Michigan. Cant wait for memorial day.

[@user-wj9gz4mm4o]

Actually bought one at the Hershey show. Fell in love with it, just hoping our truck can pull it! Waiting for the phone call to pick up sometime in November. I thought it was 26' surprised it is a full 30'.

[@wildbill9755]

if you bought the 26CJ model, it's actuall 32' 9".

[@campingworld]

hi Tina! this is a brand new model, so pricing is not yet available. stay tuned for updates!

[@felishagathright4013]

Love the fridge & windows

[@joelouis8147]

We liked this one at the show in Detroit yesterday, but can't believe it's gonna take two months to get.

[@juliaporcayo4565]

We just bought ours in Tampa FL but live in Southern Florida(complete newbies to campers) but won't pick up until Labor Day weekend. We are going to measure everything when we move it to our land but would like to pick up a few essentials before we do. Does anyone have dimensions of the tire spacing (for tire chucks), size of king bed mattress and the microwave/air fryer inside.

[@tpalsson]

I don't see any of this model with Theater Seats. Can you opt for Theater Seats on the 26CJ?

[@cajunpagan]

I'm still waiting for our local Camping World to get one in!

[@campingworld]

Hi There! Have you contacted your local dealership to let them know you're interested? If you head here (rv.campingworld.com/product/forest-river/campsite-reserve/26cj), you can enter your zip code and preferred radius on the upper left. If no results appear, use the 'Contact an RV Specialist' button to enter your information on that form and a specialist at your local dealership will contact you when your preferred model arrives at their location. Hope that helps! - Tucker Ballister

[@SteveBrant55]

I wish the oven wasn’t below the cook top. That’s too low for a retired guy like myself whose knees are getting old. Otherwise, looks very nice!

[@aryan1956]

Close but no cigar. I really dislike those "crammed in the corner" bunks. Difficult to find mattresses & sheets that fit, difficult to clean, change sheets, etc. Other than that, nice layout.

[@chrisyoung9512]

have you checked out your local camping world?

[@wildbill9755]

I've a question about this camper, as I just bought one. The trailer comes with the lippert quick drop stabilizer jacks. On those jacks is a warning sticker, stating not to deploy the stabilzer jacks with less than 16" of ground clearance from the mount. However those jacks are mounted less than 16" off the ground. If you look at those jacks in your video in the back, you can clearly see they aren't even deployed correctly in accordance with the manual. What can be done about this?

[@deborahconkle6822]

@camping world,where are you with an answer please? My daughter just took possession of her rv a few weeks ago and the answer would be beneficial. Please and thank you.

[@Fookyoutube69]

Pretty sweet

[@bobertforher]

Love it but cannot find a price??

[@campingworld]

Hi there! This is a brand new 2024 model that will be hitting lots in the coming weeks. You can learn more here: rv.campingworld.com/brand/2024/campsite%20reserve/26cj And use the 'I'm Interested' button to sign up to be the first to know about inventory and pricing updates. Hope that helps! - Tucker Ballister

[@kylehuffman9621]

What does he mean by industry exclusive solid timber core construction?

[@TrollinAllDayy]

I was totally for forest river. Loved the 29 view. But when I noticed the frame under the bed was made of twigs and staples I ran!

[@JNAUMZ]

Whats the difference between the 25mw and this one?

[@user-is9vd2oh4y]

The 25 has no bunkbeds and the bathroom takes up more eoom at back and no exterior access to bathroom. Otherwise the balanxe is fairly the same

[@jimfaber1443]

What’s the amperage on this unit? Need to buy a surge protector since I’m waiting on ours

[@campingworld]

The Campsite Reserve 26CJ is a 30 amp unit. This link should take you to several options: www.campingworld.com/outside-rv/power-protection/surge-protection?prefn1=spAmperage&prefv1=30.00 Congrats on the new RV! -Ian Baker

[@jimfaber1443]

Thanks! We went to show on Saturday with no camper and no vehicle to pull it. By the next day we had purchased the vehicle and camper. At least the show was FREE! 😅

[@user-is9vd2oh4y]

30amp

[@quincygraham9934]

So it's a 30 amp?

[@campingworld]

Yes sir! It's a 30 amp, but there's an option to upgrade to 50 amp service with prep for a second A/C if you so choose. Hope that helps! - Tucker Ballister

[@WRecKLeSS801]

Arent cable slides the worst type of slides?

[@campingworld]

Hi there! Each RV slide-out mechanism has a specific use, depending on the size and location of the slide-out. One is not necessarily better (or worse) than the others. But some make more sense for smaller slide-outs or for heavier slide rooms that need to support the weight of a jackknife sofa or dinette. Hope that makes sense! - Tucker Ballister

[@campergyrl8461]

Beware of Forest River/Rockwood/Flagstaff models. Mine had serious manufacturing defects which they admitted to, towed the camper back to the factory, then proceeded to return it to me severely damaged. They've agreed to fix the easy, cheap stuff but not the expensive, important stuff. If you think I'm just one disgruntled customer, take a look at the Better Business Bureau's Forest River page - 1 star out of 5. If I can help just one person not go through the months long agony and financial hardship I have, it will be enough. Thanks for reading

[@campingworld]

Wow, I'm REALLY sorry to hear that and honestly shocked! Rockwood/Flagstaff generally make some really quality products and it's not often we hear about major issues. Thank you for letting everyone know and sorry you have to go through this! -Ian Baker

[@campergyrl8461]

Yes...mistakes happen, which I understand. But to send a severely damaged camper back to a customer and then not stand up to it fully...intolerable.

[@chrisbarker5285]

Whats the size of the a/c

[@alexthompson3635]

15,000

[@user-wj9gz4mm4o]

I thought there was 100 watt solar on the roof?

[@campingworld]

Sorry, just now seeing this comment! That is correct, there is a 100W panel on the roof. -Ian Baker

[@user-uj4ez9cx5i]

Is it snow and heater capable?kill

[@campingworld]

hey there, this is not a four-season.

[@deborahconkle6822]

@@campingworlddoes that mean there isn’t a heater?

[@afb911]

Camping World exclusive. No thanks! Will not support CW
