    The home has a beautiful floor plan and we were so excited to get it. Once it was placed, the problems happened. We bought another microwave instead of the one offered. After a few months, everything I used it with the light on in the kitchen, the breaker would trip. I asked Fleetwood to fix it and they refused. I hired an electrician and found out that they had tied the microwave into the same breaker as the kitchen and laundry room. The electrician stated that a microwave should have its own breaker.

    After a year, our roof started leaking. There were 3 spots where water was coming in. I again called Fleetwood and they told me my warranty was expired so no go. I had a roofer look at it and he said the water was coming in through the vents on the roof. I again called Fleetwood and was told that it was impossible and that they use those vents in all their home. I ended up hiring a roofer and replacing all vents on the roof. It's been 6 years and no more leaks. This place has the worst customer service and as soon as they drop your home, it's goodbye.

    I purchased my beautiful home December 31,2024. It’s March 31, 2025. I have electrical problems, my exterior doors don’t stay closed unless they are dead bolted, my master bedroom door doesn’t close properly, my kitchen counter baseboard is falling off, the fan in the master bathroom drips condensation. Very disappointed and wish I would have chose differently. I’d add pics and a video but I have no electricity due to electrical problems.

      I only gave 2 stars as I feel it is fair to not be 100% angry but instead, REAL with my review. A lot of bad is going on with our BRAND NEW home but there is some good too. My Husband and I just received our home in November 2024. We had it customized and all. Was very excited the day it arrived.... Only to see our beautiful, NEW home with broken ceiling panels. An installed shower/bath combo HACK JOB in our second bathroom. Our customized master bathroom, 60 inch shower has one huge crack in its corner from top to the bottom (where it should be caulked) not to mention NUMEROUS little knicks in the interior doors, cabinets. Also, so many trim pieces have already came off due to Fleetwood Homes nailing gun having too much pressure that it just shot right through the trim and left with nothing to hang onto! Very VERY disappointed in what was supposed to be one of the BEST days of our family’s lives… womp womp womp....

      We purchased a brand new doublewide in August 2021. It started falling apart day 1, electrical issues, AC froze in day 1, battens and trim started falling off. It’s almost all fallen off since then (3 years later). AC still freezes all the time in Summer with new air filters installed. All the trim (windows, door ways) has pretty much fallen off. Mudding on walls to cover mistakes was not sanded at all. No caulking done anywhere in the house, no foam filled under any sink. Electrical was done **. Bulbs go out constantly. Ceilings are not 8ft sunk in in some places. Window springs broken. These are cheap for a reason. Doors installed wrong. Don’t buy from them unless you just love fixing stuff.

      On November 6, 2024, I sent an email to Ms. ** of Fleetwood Homes concerning an electrical problem that I hired an electrician to fix in my manufactured home. Wiring in the Kitchen was always needing to be reset. There are four receptacles that are linked together and they were wired wrong - Mr. ** fixed it to reset correctly. Ms. ** has not replied back to me - no contact at all. I resolved an issue with a bath tub problem with her on 8-18-2023. A crimper ring wasn't never installed causing a massive water leak.

      As far as I can determine Ms. ** is still the person that resolves problems with Fleetwood Homes purchases. I bought this home on 10-17-2022 at Palm Harbor Homes, **. Fleetwood Homes address: 2801 Gholson Road, Waco, TX 76704. (254) 799-6206. In August 2009, Fleetwood Homes was acquired by Cavco Industries of Phoenix Arizona. I would appreciate any assistance you can help me with concerning this problem. Manufacturer's Serial Number: **, **. Thank-you. Letter to Fleetwood Enclosed.

      I have purchased a home from Fleetwood Homes the Sandalwood and this has been the worst experience ever! The warranty is horrible. The plumbing in this model is horrible. Leaking from the pipes since the plumbing inside is horrible. I have had this house not even two years and now there is water damage on the ceiling that I know have to deal with since the warranty is up already. Do not buy this manufactured model from Fleetwood unless you want a lot of issues!

      I purchased a 1995 Fleetwood mobile home in 1997. Worst decision EVER!!! The moisture from the air unit has rotten out every particle board floor in my house, There’s black mold in the walls and every original window in the home is either broken or had to be replaced. These are not well built homes and if you purchase one you may be in for a lifetime of repairs. I hate it here.

      This is our retirement home. We are very disappointed in the quality. Indoor paints must be the very cheapest because you can’t wash any of it. It comes right off. Trims throughout the kitchen have fallen off. The dishwasher and stove do not fit properly. And again, the quality of both are poor. The windows do not drain well and hold moisture. There is a quarter to half inch gap, depending on which side you’re looking at, between the insert and tile in the walk in shower. Holds water and mildews. Outside the house the siding is warped all over. Just plain dissatisfied. There’s more but, that’s enough to let you know to shop around and do your research. The first year home warranty starts when you buy the home not when you can actually step foot in it. We expected more for our $170,000

      I hired United Dwelling to manufacture an ADU for me in Los Angeles. I did my research on UD and they had good reviews. I won't go into the many problems I had with UD, but they eventually went bankrupt. All I was left with was a one year warranty from their builder, Fleetwood Homes. Then there were a new series of surprises. They fixed the problems that showed up within the 1st year, but that's it. Now we're going on year 2 and the front door won't open and the walls are cracking.

      I never thought to look up reviews of the manufacturer, Fleetwood Homes, until now. All 1 stars with a sprinkle of 2. Very shocked and disappointed. I paid a lot of money for what has turned out to be a very poorly manufactured unit. How is this company still in business? You think you're saving money with the price they offer you, but don't be fooled. Poor quality. (I don't have any invoices from this company since I paid everything to UD, but I've attached an email from Fleetwood Homes telling me that my property is now out of warranty, which I think proves that I am a verified buyer.)

      Fleetwood Homes author review by Joseph Truini

      Fleetwood Homes has been building custom homes since 1950. It's one of the largest manufactured homebuilders in the United States.

      • Homes are factory-built and then transported to the site: This unique process cuts down on waste, allows for top-notch quality control, and permits building in all types of weather. Fleetwood homebuilding factories are located in seven states: California, Georgia, Idaho, Oregon, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia.

      • Floor plans available online: Prospective homebuyers can input their zip codes to find a variety of plans for homes available in different regions of the country.

      • Sustainable materials: All homes are built using as many sustainable materials as possible, reducing the effect on the environment.

      • Similar style homes: Since homes are factory-built, most models are similar in size and architectural style. Fleetwood specializes in easy-living ranch-style homes.

      • Brand name suppliers: Homes are built using materials from brand-name suppliers, which ensures a reliable supply of high-quality materials.
