The brand

Why buyers love Ember RV

Ember RV was founded in 2021 in Bristol, Indiana by Jayco-veteran Ashley Bontrager Lehman and a small team of RV-industry insiders, and it has spent its short life chasing one idea: a towable built from the start to live off the grid and through four seasons. The lineup is entirely travel trailers, split into three tiers. The flagship Overland Series rides Ember's proprietary Trailblazer steel chassis with a CURT independent trailing-arm suspension, comes standard with a Max Solar package (1,200 watts of rooftop solar, a 3,000W Victron inverter, and a Battle Born lithium battery), and is built around the patent-pending EmberTrack reconfigurable interior. The mid-tier Touring Edition brings the same off-grid DNA on a lighter CURT Touring Coil suspension at a friendlier price, and the value E-Series spans tiny single-axle teardrops up to family bunkhouses on a conventional chassis. Ember's standout, verifiable claim is real: it advertises every model as Truma Gold Standard Cold Weather Certified, which is genuinely rare among towables. The honest caveats are the ones that come with any startup brand: prices are high, used inventory is thin, the third-party review base is tiny, and owner groups report the teething problems — roof leaks, jacks, and warranty turnaround — that plague new manufacturers scaling up. Below is the current travel-trailer range with real specs, real floor plans, and a candid read on what owners praise and what they warn about — so you can shop an Ember for sale knowing exactly what you are getting.

Here's the part the lot won't tell you: the best Ember deals are usually two to four years old. Let the first owner eat the steep early depreciation, then buy a rig that's already been shaken down, with the bugs sorted and the records to prove it. That's exactly the kind of unit our RV buyer's agents hunt for, and we run an independent inspection on every one before you wire a dollar. Already own one and ready to move on? We'll list and sell it through our RV broker service for the retail number it's worth — not the wholesale gutting a dealer offers on trade.

What owners love

  • Off-grid capability is genuine, not marketing. The Overland Series ships standard with 1,200W of solar, a 3,000W Victron inverter, and a Battle Born lithium battery — hardware most brands charge thousands extra for.
  • True four-season build. Ember advertises every model as Truma Gold Standard Cold Weather Certified, backed by a Truma combination furnace, dual-pane windows, and a heated, enclosed underbelly — a rare distinction among towables.
  • Purpose-built chassis and flexible interiors. The Overland's Trailblazer frame with CURT independent suspension and the patent-pending EmberTrack reconfigurable bunk/office/storage system show real engineering, not a rebadged stock floor plan.

What to watch

  • Startup growing pains. Owner groups report roof leaks (especially on slide-out models), corroded jacks, and long punch lists on early units — the kind of teething issues common to a brand only a few years old.
  • Price and resale are unproven. Ember trades at a premium and the used market is too thin to know how values hold; you will likely pay close to new pricing either way.
  • Tiny third-party review base. With only a handful of independent owner reviews so far, there is far less long-term data than for an established builder, so a thorough pre-purchase inspection matters even more.
From real owners

What Ember RV owners are saying

Ember is a young brand, so its independent review history is genuinely thin — far too small to read like an established builder's. On RV Insider, Ember averages about 2.5 out of 5 across only three owner reviews, with sub-scores clustered low (liveability 2.3, overall quality 2.3, floor plan 2.7, driving/towing 2.7, factory warranty 2.3); with a sample that small, those numbers are more anecdote than trend. The picture in owner communities is mixed in the way new brands usually are: some owners praise the build, the off-grid hardware, and responsive staff, while others on the Ember owners' forums and Facebook group report roof leaks on slide-out models, corroded jacks, and long first-trip punch lists. Ember's most concrete, verifiable strength is its engineering story — the Trailblazer chassis with CURT independent suspension, a standard Max Solar lithium package on the Overland Series, and a Truma Gold Standard four-season certification it advertises across the line. Because the brand is new and inventory is thin, condition and build vary unit to unit and a careful pre-purchase inspection — roof, seals, slides, jacks, and electrical — is essential.

Questions

Ember RV — buyer FAQs

How much does a Ember Off-Grid Travel Trailers cost?
It spans a wide range. Because Ember is a young, premium-focused builder, there is very little used inventory; most units trade close to new pricing. The value-priced E-Series starts in the high four figures and roughly $18,000-$54,000 new, the mid-tier Touring Edition runs about $60,000-$70,000 new, and the off-road Overland Series with its standard Max Solar package runs roughly $73,000-$92,000 new. Each model page below lists a typical resale range, and we'll get you an exact number on any specific rig for sale.
Is Ember RV a good brand?
Off-grid capability is genuine, not marketing. The Overland Series ships standard with 1,200W of solar, a 3,000W Victron inverter, and a Battle Born lithium battery — hardware most brands charge thousands extra for.
Where are Ember RV RVs built?
In Bristol, Indiana, where the company has been since 2021. That matters because the factory service center is a big part of why owners stay loyal.
Should I get a used Ember inspected before buying?
Always. A used rig can hide deferred maintenance on the roof, slides, and levelers. Our independent RV inspectors check it before any money moves, and a buyer's agent turns what they find into leverage on price.
