What our clients say about us.

Peter and Gail, Auckland

Kevin from Cornerstone USA Imports has been great to deal with for the purchase of our superbly appointed 2001 National Seabreeze RV – a really enjoyable and comfortable vehicle for living and travelling around NZ for the past year.  Viewing and buying was open and transparent, with no pressure.  Kevin was really helpful with getting familiar with the motor home; its overall condition has been great; and he has been really helpful in after-sales support – such as helping with sourcing replacement parts, and dealing with minor operational issues.  Would highly recommend Cornerstone USA Imports to anyone considering this lifestyle choice.

Dave and Jan Roe, Orewa

We would like to take this opportunity to thank both Kevin & Yvonne for their help in organizing our 2015 Cherokee Grey Wolf Caravan from Los Angeles, USA and making the conversion arrangements to suit New Zealand standards.
The workmanship and the support has been great and we have already introduced some friends that are making similar arrangements with Kevin at the present time.
It has been a pleasure dealing with them and we have no hesitation in recommending Cornerstone USA Imports to anyone wanting to import a caravan or other RV from the United States of America.

Annie & Pete Dowling, Wanaka

Thanks heaps Kevin for organising the pickup, and consequent conversion of our Jayco White Hawk travel trailer we imported from the USA. The contractors you used, have made an excellent job of converting the caravan, to meet New Zealand’s standards and regulations.
We appreciated your precise communication, and delivering all that was promised, as quoted.
We would highly recommend Cornerstone USA Imports expert services to others.

Ben and Bridie Allen, Carterton

We dealt with Kevin of Cornerstone USA Imports over several years as we purchased a caravan in the USA while living there with the plan to bring it home to NZ.  He was always prompt with communication and followed up as promised.  By working with Kevin it took the uncertainty out of the daunting and new process of importing a caravan for us and he connected us with specialists for each phase of the project.  We felt supported and that he cared about our caravan – we weren’t just another number or transaction.  With Kevin’s contacts and understanding of the process on both sides (NZ and USA) I’m certain we saved time and money and eliminated potential stress.  If and when it’s time to do it again we wouldn’t hesitate to use Kevin’s services and would recommend Cornerstone USA Imports to others.
