01 What makes it unique
Keystone publishes three weights for the Coleman Lantern 25RK: a shipping weight of 5,898 lb, a carrying capacity of 2,102 lb and a hitch weight of 668 lb. Those are Keystone’s own terms, and this page keeps them. Keystone does not call the first figure dry or unloaded weight, does not say the hitch figure is measured dry, and publishes no GVWR for any Coleman Lantern floorplan, so none of the three is renamed here and no loaded rating is worked out from them. The trailer’s own federal weight label, inside the door, is the document that carries its UVW, cargo capacity and GVWR.
Keystone’s 2027 floorplan drawing for the 25RK shows, at the front, two twin beds that convert to a king, with wardrobes. Mid-coach: a split bath with the toilet and sink on one side and the shower on the other, a dinette with a TV, a fireplace and a coat tree. At the rear: a kitchen with an air fryer, a knife block above the stove, a refrigerator, a sink and a pantry, beside a sofa in a slide. It draws one slide-out and a 19-foot awning. Outside it labels pass-through storage. Layouts change with options; check the unit itself.
Keystone’s 2027 floorplan page for the 25RK lists 71 standard and optional items in 8 groups. Systems and running gear it lists as standard: I-beam frame with stamped steel cross-members & outriggers; 15,000 BTU ducted A/C; 30,000 BTU furnace; 42,000 BTU Suburban tankless water heater; 50" LED Smart TV; USB A + C plugs; 16 cubic foot 12V refrigerator; Air fryer/convection/microwave; 2 burner flush mount gas range with glass cover and built in Air Fryer; and Interior and exterior LED lighting. Standard on the 25RK but not on every Coleman Lantern floorplan page Keystone publishes (8 compared): Theater seating; Privacy curtain for top and bottom bunk; Bunk steps with storage; Hidden under bunk storage; Electric fireplace; and Extra large 24x40 shower. Marked optional: Spare tire kit.
Tank capacities are 54 gal fresh, 68 gal gray and 30 gal waste, as Keystone lists them. Fresh water weighs about 8.3 lb per US gallon, so a full fresh tank is roughly 448 lb on the road before anything else is loaded. The tire size Keystone lists is ST215/75R14D.
Against the 2 Coleman Lantern floorplans profiled here, this one is the 1st by Keystone’s shipping weight, in a range from 5,898 lb (25RK) to 7,586 lb (28RKS). Every figure in that comparison comes from the same Keystone page type for the same model year, so the comparison inside the series is like for like.
Every number on this page was read on 2 Nov 2026 from Keystone’s own floorplan page for the Coleman Lantern 25RK. That page carries no model year, so the year comes from the roster page that links it, which lists the Coleman Lantern floorplans under the heading “2027 Floorplans”. Keystone notes that its website reflects the most recent production run and that features and specifications change during the year.
How the 25RK differs from the other six Coleman Lantern floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.
- Shipping weight (Keystone’s term), 5,898 lb: lightest of seven; next is the 25RBS (6,365 lb).
- Hitch weight as Keystone lists it, 668 lb: lightest of seven; next is the 28BHS (696 lb).
- Hitch weight as a share of shipping weight, 11.3%: second-smallest of seven, between the 28BHS (10.2%) and the 25REX (11.5%).
- Carrying capacity (Keystone’s term), 2,102 lb: fourth-smallest of seven, between the 32BHS (2,061 lb) and the 25REX (2,103 lb).
- Length, 29 ft 11 in: shortest of seven, level with the 25RBS and 25REX; next are the 28BHS and 28RKS (32 ft 11 in).
- Sleeping capacity, 3: smallest of seven, level with the 25RBS and 25REX; next are the 28RKS and 29RKS (4).
Next to the 25RBS, the nearest heavier floorplan by shipping weight, the 25RK is 467 lb lighter by shipping weight, has 33 lb less carrying capacity and has a hitch weight 98 lb lighter; the two publish the same length, exterior height, fresh tank, grey tank and sleeping capacity.

Towing it
Can’t check: Keystone publishes no GVWR. A tow check needs the GVWR, the most the trailer may weigh loaded, and Keystone prints none for this floorplan, so this site does not work one out. Read the GVWR on the trailer’s own federal weight label and hold it against your tow vehicle’s ratings.
03 The Coleman Lantern floorplan family
Keystone lists 8 Coleman Lantern floorplans for 2027. 2 have a complete Keystone figure set and no existing page here, and are profiled, from 5,898 lb to 7,586 lb shipping weight; the others are catalogued on this page with the reason against each. Keystone publishes shipping weight, carrying capacity and hitch weight for these trailers, and no GVWR.

04 Notes on this floorplan
What Keystone does not publish for the Coleman Lantern
No GVWR, no unloaded (dry) weight under that name, no dry hitch weight and no exterior width appear on Keystone’s floorplan pages for this series, so those rows read as not published. Nothing is filled from a sibling floorplan, a different model year or a dealer listing.
Read the label on the trailer
Federal rules put a load-carrying label inside every RV trailer: its unloaded weight with full propane, its cargo carrying capacity and its GVWR (49 CFR 571.110 and 571.120). On a Coleman Lantern those figures come from the trailer, not from this page, and they govern the towing decision.
05 How it compares
7,586 lb shipping weight and 2,134 lb carrying capacity, against this plan’s 5,898 lb and 2,102 lb.
07 Where this floorplan sits

11 NHTSA safety record
NHTSA holds 11 recall campaigns and 2 owner complaints (model years 2005 on) against the Coleman line (a recall and a complaint are not the same thing).
Too few reports to show a pattern. 2 complaints have been filed on this line — not enough to say what fails most often. They cover structure.
Recall coverage here is not complete, and complaints are owners’ unverified reports (how this record is built). Check a specific VIN at NHTSA before you buy. Full tables are on the Coleman line page.
