I was looking at a bike at wal-wart yesterday,....and found five nut's loose, just hand tight,....but it always good to nice to have a heads up...so if the decal's start to peel,...can't say I did not know it might happen
You know it time to clean the frigerator...When something close's the door from the inside.

Even people with top of the line motorhomes have some problem at first.  I talked to a guy once that had a $500,000 motorhome.  He had a list of 15 minor things that needed fixed, adjusted etc.  It seems to be an industry standard that final inspection is low on the priority list.

No problems here either.  I love mine.  

I also had the front decals peel, so I removed them and the Pod looks great without them.  I also had to replace the gasket around the storage doors, but that was simply due to normal aging and wear.  I like doing my own work, it gives me personal pride, so I don't mind if small issues crop up.

Travelite, somewhere around here I posted pics of my pod, I had the front and rear stickers removed about 2 months ago after they started peeling for the 2nd time.

travelite,  I think that the vast majority of Pod owners have not have any serious problems.  I know that my 2010 (purchased June) has had no problems.  We have been out in a lot of severe weather and it sat through hurricane Irene uncovered with no leaks at all.  I am really pleased with the unit and will be using it for many years to come.  We are not interested in going bigger.  Good luck on your quest.

[QUOTE=Leaflin] Our only problem was the front and rear decals peeling.
I removed them and actually like the look better.

I've had some minor problems, just like some people on the Casita forum has reported minor problems with theirs.  At the end of the day, we've had a fantastic dealer who has taken care of those problems and gotten us back on the road quickly.
