01 What makes it unique
KZ lists the 2017 Spree S333RLI at 7,770 lb dry, a GVWR of 9,500 lb, a net carrying capacity of 1,530 lb and a tongue weight of 900 lb. KZ’s own figures do not add up — a conflict, stated not resolved: 7,770 lb dry plus 1,530 lb carrying capacity is 9,300 lb, against a printed GVWR of 9,500 lb. All three are shown as KZ prints them and none is corrected; the federal label on the trailer is the one to trust.
It is 36' 5" long and 11' 3" high. KZ prints its tanks as 40 gal fresh, 32 gal grey, 32 gal black.
Among the 10 Spree floorplans KZ’s Spree brochure (filed in KZ’s 2017 brochure folder; the brochure prints no year) lists with a published dry weight, it is number 5 from the lightest, in a range from 5,590 lb (Spree S261RK) to 8,420 lb (Spree S323RK). Every figure in that comparison is KZ’s, for the same model year.
Every number on this page was read on 5 Nov 2026 from KZ’s Spree brochure (filed in KZ’s 2017 brochure folder; the brochure prints no year); model year 2017 comes from where the maker files it on its own site, not from the document’s text.
How the S333RLI differs from the other nine Spree floorplans. Most distinctive first. How these ranks are worked out.
- Cargo capacity, 1,530 lb: largest of ten; next is the S333BHK (1,370 lb).
- Length, 36 ft 5 in: third-longest of ten, between the S333RIK (36 ft 2 in) and the S333BHK (36 ft 6 in).
- Dry weight, 7,770 lb: fifth-lightest of ten, between the S312BHK (7,150 lb) and the S303RL (7,790 lb).
- Tongue weight, 900 lb: fifth-heaviest of ten, between the S333BHK (860 lb) and the S322RL (970 lb).
- Tongue weight as a share of dry weight, 11.6%: fifth-largest of ten, between the S261RK (10.7%) and the S323RE (12.1%).
- Exterior height, 11 ft 3 in: fifth-tallest of ten, between the S303RL, S312BHK and S322RL (11 ft 2 in) and the S323RE, S323RK and two others (11 ft 6 in).
- GVWR, 9,500 lb: highest of ten, level with the S323RE, S323RK and two others; next is the S303RL (8,800 lb).
Next to the S312BHK, the nearest lighter floorplan by dry weight, the S333RLI is 620 lb heavier by dry weight, has a GVWR 1,200 lb higher, has 380 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 180 lb heavier, is 11 in longer and stands 1 in taller; the two publish the same interior height, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.
Next to the S303RL, the nearest heavier floorplan by dry weight, the S333RLI is 20 lb lighter by dry weight, has a GVWR 700 lb higher, has 520 lb more cargo capacity, has a tongue weight 270 lb lighter, is 1 ft 11 in longer and stands 1 in taller; the two publish the same interior height, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

Towing it
Check your vehicle. Enter the ratings from your owner’s manual and the door-pillar placard.
Compares your figures with this page’s published GVWR (9,500 lb) and the upper loaded tongue estimate (1,425 lb, a rule of thumb). Your vehicle’s placard and the trailer’s own weight label govern. This floorplan’s published dry weight plus cargo capacity comes to 9,300 lb, which is not its published GVWR; the check uses the published GVWR.
Loaded range: 10–15% of GVWR on the tongue, a rule of thumb, not a measurement of this unit. No truck ratings or hitch classes (why; NHTSA, DOT HS 809 433).

04 Notes on this floorplan
What KZ does not publish for the Spree S333RLI
KZ prints no sleeping capacity for this model, so none is given. Nothing is filled from a sibling model, 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). Those figures come from the trailer itself and govern the towing decision.
05 How it compares
7,150 lb dry and 8,300 lb GVWR, against this model’s 7,770 lb and 9,500 lb.
7,790 lb dry and 8,800 lb GVWR, against this model’s 7,770 lb and 9,500 lb.
06 Loading it for a trip
A full 40-gallon fresh tank is about 332 lb of water (water counts as cargo: 49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.2), 22% of the Spree S333RLI’s 1,530 lb cargo capacity, leaving 1,198 lb. Across 10 Spree floorplans the water share runs 22% to 33%, and this plan’s is the lowest. Nearest on that share: Spree S333BHK at 24%. Your own unit’s figure is on the label inside its entry door (49 CFR 571.110 S9.3.3).
07 Where this floorplan sits
Closest sibling: the Spree S333RIK, nearest on the published figures. It differs on 4 of the 8 fields both publish (this plan first): length 36 ft 5 in vs 36 ft 2 in; dry weight 7,770 lb vs 8,160 lb; cargo capacity 1,530 lb vs 1,340 lb; hitch weight 900 lb vs 740 lb. They match on GVWR, fresh tank, grey tank and black tank.

10 Manuals & documents
Sources: kz-rv.com (linked below); the full source note is at the foot of the page.
11 NHTSA safety record
NHTSA holds 7 recall campaigns and 6 owner complaints (model years 2005 on) against the Spree line (a recall and a complaint are not the same thing).
Too few reports to show a pattern. 6 complaints have been filed on this line — not enough to say what fails most often. They cover electrical system, equipment, service brakes, structure, trailer hitches and wheels.
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 Spree line page.
Owner’s manuals
The maker’s own owner’s manual for each model year on this page, linked where the maker publishes it. Each link goes to the maker’s file, labelled as the maker labels it; a year with no manual of its own is not filled from another year.
