This has been a great vehicle and gives a great ride. Have not had any problems with this vehicle. It has a quiet ride. Rides smooth on the rough roads. We enjoy the heated seats and the leather has been great. This leather has been the best leather we have owned.
The pros about the Buick enclave is that is convenient if you have a family with kids. The gas is a saver as well. It is not too small not too big. It has a rearview camera to see how close you are to another car when backing up.
The third row seating with bucket seats. So easy to get to the back. There is still a lot of room in trunk with third row up. Heated seats. Heated mirrors although took me a while to figure out if I had it on or not. Good leg room on driver side and in the bucket seats.
The pros are its spacious inside. It has a nice interior.It's good for a big family. It's good for road trips. Has space to put furniture. Also to put a lot of groceries. It looks luxurious. So it can compete with expensive cars.
It is a very comfortable vehicle for family road trips. We have driven down to Florida from the Chicago area twice. Highway mileage is very convenient. As long as you upkeep and maintain this vehicle it will last you many years.
It has a comfortable ride. It drives very good. It is the right size for our family. It has been very good with repair expenses. It has been very reliable. Even though we bought this with higher mileage, it has been very reliable.
I absolutely love my Buick enclave. It is extremely smooth on the road making for a very comfortable ride, whether it is just around town or a cross country trip. It has adequate seating for 7 passengers as well as luggage. The in seat video screens allow for back seat passengers to watch the same or different videos which decreases stress of travelling, particularly with cross country trips. Even with over 130,000 miles, this vehicle has given us virtually no mechanical issues whatsoever. I highly recommend a Buick enclave. The only downside would be the amount of gas it uses due to the size of the vehicle.
There is not enough storage and cup holders. Seems very crammed. Would have been nice to use some of the empty space with more storage. The design is comfortable but the storage is very inconvenient. No place to put kleenex.
The cons about the Buick enclave is the trunk it is really small not a lot of things fit in the back like a cube cooler would fit in the back. If you have kids it only has two seats in the front and they will be fighting to be in the front.
With a car seat on the bucket seat behind the passenger there is not enough leg room in front passenger seat. Also we have a booster seat behind the driver seat and it is hard to buckle with the wider base (it is a Graco all in one). I think if the seat was a little wider or the seat belt came up a bit more it work be easier to buckle. Third row is a little tight for the older kids or adults. Cup holders do not fit larger water bottles or some of my coffee cups.
The take off is not fast. I should of also picked an all wheel drive. The car takes along time to speed up. It can be a too big for people. The carpet wears out fast. Also sensors pop of for no apparent reason.
I do not have any cons at the moment. I have really enjoyed this vehicle. It has help up to my expectations. I am very pleased with this vehicle. I would highly recommend it as an amazing family vehicle.
This vehicle does not enough cup holders. The radio Bluetooth is very cumbersome and some of the technology is not very user friendly. The gas mileage is ok but could be better. Not sure why you have to have synthetic oil used which is very expensive.
The Buick enclave really has no cons in my opinion except for the fact that it does use a good bit of gas being a larger vehicle. However, with gas prices these days, even that really is not much of a con and certainly wouldn't stop me from purchasing another one.
