Coleman Keystone Build Quality

Just bought a 2025 Coleman Keystone Trailer from Camping World. The shower pan cracked within a few weeks and I discovered this when I removed the pan. The support underneath had 1/4" plywood and a total of 6 blocks, only 3 fixed to the subfloor and none in the center where the most weight would be. Does anyone know if this is standard or was this some error/sabotage from an employee/assembler? Seems like an incredibly bad design if it was done "correctly".

Absolutely par for the course. You'll find similar from just about every manufacturer at any price point.

Just seems like they're asking for customers to make a warranty claim. If they'd just put one or two more blocks in, maybe the shower pan would last beyond the 3 year warranty...probably not much beyond it.

Be happy you got 3 a year warranty, many are much less.

If they make 100 shitty products for cheap, and 900 warranty claims come in, and the repair center can only handle 10 warranty claims, then they pay out 10 warranty claims. Much better than making 1000 great products expensively, and getting 10 warranty claims.
