Dealer called to say they had my new Rdome. Went and picked it up today. Forest River told me I could buy it from them if I wanted the new Rdome. They don't care about customer service. I got the general manager of the dealership to exchange it for me. And only after many phone calls complaining. I have owned several jayco trailers over the years, and I must say they care more about customer satisfaction than forest River does. They must not read the comments from Rpod owners on here, because they do nothing to correct the problems we the customer tell them about. I no I would never buy any RV made by forest River again. I should have stayed with Jayco

Curious, has anyone dealt with Jeff couches with this problem. We took delivery of ours in April and got the wrong rdome.  It's a 2015 model with a 2014 rdome that keeps coming out of the channel

I don't mean to hijack the thread but I have a question about the fit of the R-dome after installing the R-pod 4 inch riser kit? Does the R-dome fit ok? How does the added height affect the fit and symmetry of the dome?

I think you will get a lot of subjective opinions, Mark. Personally, I have no problem with it on my 178. I haven't seen anything better, but would welcome one.

I agree relative to the Rdome fit on a Rpod with risers. I have a 177 HRE and the dome is the BOM (slang for good)!

We put our R-Dome up for the first time this week on our 2015 178. The fit was a bit funky, the suction cups are useless and the instructions were for attaching it to a pop-up trailer with screw-in grommets, but even with all of this.....we love it! I didn't like how it sloped down from the roof since the Pod has risers so I put the front legs on risers, much better. The screen skirt is a joke.

In earlier model years they installed the screw-on posts.  I hated them.  A good set of suction cups is better.
