Here are a few features you’ll find across Winnebago’s lineup. 

SuperStructure®

The SuperStructure® is a steel construction that surrounds the cab of their Class A coaches, offering strength for a smoother ride. This integrates the walls, roof, and floor into one unit, which should increase the structural support. The SuperStructure is made from both aluminum and steel to provide additional structural support where needed and to offer a lightweight material to increase fuel efficiency. In addition, thermo-panel walls are sturdy, lightweight, and insulated.

SuperShell™ Sleeper Deck

The SuperShell is a composite hull that’s found in the over-cab area of Winnebago’s Class C RVs. It features injected foam insulation to provide plenty of insulated comfort for sleeping—as well as protection from outdoor noise. The shape and construction of the SuperShell sleeper decks maintain aerodynamics for better fuel efficiency. Inside, guests have integrated lighting, ventilation, and often entertainment options.

This control panel allows you to perform a variety of tasks, like check tank levels, operate awnings, and in some cases start the generator. Smart device integration allows you to also control everything from your tablet or smartphone and monitor RV data such as your battery levels,, tank levels, temperature settings, and more. Some systems may allow you to integrate RV security so you can monitor cameras, lock doors, and more.

Winnebago’s Manufacturing History

winnebago travel trailer company

Founded in 1958 in Forest City, Iowa, the original idea behind Winnebago was to manufacture travel trailers in order to boost the small community’s economy. As they grew and evolved, Winnebago began to design and build the furniture that would go inside their RVs, making certain that it was built for the rigors of regular travel—as well as cementing the future of an industry built for RVing. 

The company continued to grow and, in 1966, introduced its first motorhome. In order to bolster sales, they offered their camper to the market at a steep discount compared to competitors, which made them an instant hit. So much so that the term “Winnebago” was commonly used when referring to RVs in general, whether built by the company or not. 

Winnebago has had decades in the industry to innovate not only the designs of their motorhomes and trailers, but to introduce new technologies and features that have become ubiquitous throughout RVing. Browse the many different Winnebago RV models and you’ll see a trend of innovation, stylistic advances, and careful attention to quality that matches the needs of the RV lifestyle.

Today, Winnebago Industries owns Grand Design RV and Newmar Corporation, as well as boat manufacturers Kris Kraft and Barletta. 

Winnebago’s Customer Support

winnebago travel trailer company

On top of such a storied history, Winnebago has a long track record of happy customers. That happens in part because of their dedication to customer service. Beyond providing reliable Winnebago RV models year after year, they offer a range of different warranties, and owner resources, and continue to improve what they offer buyers with such developments as the Winnebago mobile app and GoLife Community.

Winnebago RVs have different levels of warranties. Specific warranty information can be found in the owner’s manual of each RV, and Winnebago owners can contact them for more specific information. 

Owner Resources

Winnebago offers owners a dedicated page that groups together the majority of resources one might need, in one simple place. These include FAQs, a 3D parts lookup tool, a video library with helpful how-to and informative videos, and a service locator tool, among others. 

Winnebago App

Being on the go means being mobile. Much of the information above can also be found in a dedicated Winnebago app designed for smart devices. Educational information like how-tos is also available on the app as well as tools for finding RV service providers near your location.

GoLife Community

GoLIfe is a perks program designed for Winnebago owners. It offers discounts at campgrounds like Kampgrounds of America, discounts to Passport America and Harvest Hosts, and deals on Winnebago Outdoor Adventures presented by Fantasy RV Tours. It also includes discounts on RV gear like Michelin tires, roadside assistance, and RV insurance. 

Winnebago—their products, technology, and customer attention—is highly revered in the RV industry. And for good reason. It’s a major reason why RVing is such a popular pastime today. And thanks in large part to their dedication and service to the industry, the lifestyle has only improved.

Where Are Winnebago RVs Made?

The Winnebago motorhome company boasts the largest RV manufacturing facility in the world currently.

The brand is headquartered in Forest City, Northern Iowa, in America. The facility comprises roughly 60 acres of land and is known to those who work for Winnebago as the most productive 60 acres in the region.

Additionally, these headquarters house the most advanced technological motorhome manufacturing facilities in the RV industry worldwide. Should you be interested in visiting, there are factory tours offered.

However, you will need to contact the company to find out when visits are allowed because due to the Covid19 crisis, factory visits are suspended.

Who Owns The Winnebago Company?

Interestingly Winnebago industries were founded in Forest City, Iowa 1955, to create more employment.

Before Winnebago was known as such, it used to be known as the Forest City Industrial Development Trust.

Forest City businessman John K. Hanson was one of the leading thinkers behind the project as he was the one to notice the steady increase in interest in recreational vehicles. He brought this discovery to the trust, who decided to investigate making travel trailers upon hearing the thought process behind it.

After a three-day drive, Forest City Industries was created with a board of directors that included Hohn K Hanson.

Forest City Industries eventually struck a deal with Modernistic Industries, a trailer company based out of California. The first trailer was produced in 1958, but many of the Forest river hosts broke away from Forest City industries.

In 1961 Modernistic Industries was changed to Winnebago Industries, inc.

Today, the company is run by Michael Happ, the managing CEO, although a few people own a portion of the company via having shares in the company.

How Are Winnebago RVs Made?

This article section will look at the unique SuperStructure construction that Winnebago features in its Class A and Class C RVs.

This innovative structural design is what sets Winnebago apart from many competitors in the motorhome industry.

With the SuperStructure design, there are four key components, and we will have a closer look at them below:

Specialized E-Coating:

Winnebago utilizes leading automotive e coating technology to help minimize the likelihood of corrosion.

The critical steel components of their motorhomes are run through a multi-process, full immersion electrocoating system.

Precision Laser-Cut Tubing:

Winnebago makes use of its own precision laser cutting tool that ensures all joints are cut precisely in structural steel.

Impressively the laser tool they use can even create etches on the tubing and cut shapes into the tubes.

Special Thermo-Panel Sidewalling:

Winnebago’s sidewalls in their motorhomes are some of the most lightweight and durable created in the RV industry.

They layer high-density block foam insulation and fiberglass to aluminum support structures to achieve this.

Specialized Design Interlocking Joints:

One of the key stages in producing the SuperStructure by Winnebago is where the specially designed interlocking joint connects to the floor roof and sidewalls.

This ingenious structural design allows for greater weight distribution, which allows Winnebago RVs to forgo internal reinforcement.

What Are The Most Popular RVs By Winnebago?

With Winnebago being one of RV models’ biggest manufactures globally, it makes a few popular models amongst RVers.

Each class they make has popular models, but we will look at a few that do particularly well in the RV market.

Class A Winnebago Forza:

If you want a large RV, then the Winnebago Forza could be the perfect fit.

This RV model comes in a length of up to 40 feet and usually weighs around 29000 pounds.  Additionally, if you want versatility, consider the Forza models to come in five different floorplan options.

The Forza models feature brilliant amenities with residential-sized appliances and a spacious entertainment area.

Class B Winnebago Travato:

For those single adventures or small families looking for a compact campervan model, the Travato is worth considering.

The Travato has a length of up to 21 feet and is lightweight at approximately 9300 pounds.

The living areas are small but spacious, and the kitchen has many chic amenities that include Corian countertops and a two-burner stove with a heat shield.

Class C Winnebago View:

Class C motorhomes are a great go-between if you don’t want something as big as a class A or as small as a Class B.

This model has a luxurious feel and can be bought in a size range of up to 25 feet 5 inches with an approximate weight of around 11000 pounds.

The entire RV interior features tinted windows, gorgeous vinyl flooring, and LED lighting. The kitchen also has several lovely features.

Travel Trailer Winnebago Minnie:

Should you not want to commit to an RV that you have to drive, Winnebago has a popular travel trailer that is lightweight, compact, and durable.

The Minnie is 32 feet long and comes in at roughly 8800 pounds.

This travel trailer consists of a moderately sized bathroom, spacious bedroom, U  shaped dinette area, lounge, and kitchen.

Has Winnebago had any Recalls Over the Years?

Every RV manufacturer may have had recalls over the years.

The majority of RVs are recalled due to a manufacturer defect that could cause safety or mechanical issues down the line. In addition to this RV, recalls have different threat levels depending on the fault’s exact nature.

Winnebago has had a few significant recalls that we are going to not here for you to examine.

You might have one of these models and not know that it was recalled.

Winnebago ERA Model (2012 – 2018):

Certain ERA models were recalled due to a fault found with the vehicle’s cabinet compartment.

The cabinet compartment was found to have key failings at critical connected points.

The issue could result in the cabinet detaching and falling into the vehicles’ cabin area, which could cause injury to occupants of the RV.

Winnebago Heartland Prowler & Trailer Runner Models (2019):

Roughly 300 models were recalled due to inaccurate labeling found on certain models.

The labeling is related to tire pressure, load range, and tire size.

The incorrect labeling led to the RV not meeting the requirements for the Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard.

Winnebago ERA Model (2021):

Some 2021 units were recalled due to an incorrectly installed weld nut on the shoulder belt.

Issues with the shoulder belt could result in injuries should an accident occur.

Are All Winnebago Keys The Same?

As with most RV manufacturer brands , Winnebago often uses the same keys for the storage departments as other Winnebago owners.

It’s also likely other brands will also have an identical key that will open a Winnebago storage compartment.

Admittedly this is a common problem for RV owners regardless of the brand, but there is a daily smile solution.

You can easily have the lock cylinders changed with a unique compartment key, and it won’t cost you too much.

Are Winnebago RVs For All Four Seasons?

Although most Winnebago models perform well in different seasonal settings, the Winnebago class B category is truly four seasonal.

Below we will discuss a few specs associated with Winnebago Class Bs that prove they are ideal for those full time, year-round camping enthusiasts.

Winnebago Solis Class B

This class B model is fairly new to Winnebago and is available in both the 59P and 59PX floorplans.

Both of these floorplans have features that make them four seasonal recreational vehicles. One of the main drawing cards of this model, besides its diverse seasonality capabilities, is its extreme versatility.

You can utilize this motorhome while camping in the mountains or for beach excursions.

Let’s take a deeper look into the top five features that make this motorhome truly four seasonal:

  • Eco hot heating system and on-demand water system.
  • Truma Combi eco hydronic heating and continuous on-demand hot water system technology.
  • Thermal capability zipped window coverings with an integrated air barrier.
  • 220W solar panels fitted to the top of the pop-top.
  • Premium quality ceiling to floor insulation that dulls noise and keeps harsh weather at bay.

Winnebago Boldt Class B

If you are looking for four-season capabilities and energy and fuel efficiency, then the Winnebago Boldt Class B model might be the best option for you.

The Boldt is a diesel model built on a Mercedes VS30 Sprinter, which allows the motorhome to be spacious with plenty of storage available.

If you would like a closer look into what makes this campervan model four seasonal, have a look at the list below:

  • Features state of the art insulation automotive technology.
  • On-demand water heating Truma Combi system.
  • A superior 115-watt solar panel system with MPPT solar controller proven to perform 30 percent better than competitor brands.
  • Automated rain sensor with an integrated wet wiper feature.
  • Heated drainage system installed.
  • Optional thermal euro acrylic Thermo insulated window cassette shades.
