Worst seats I have ever had

This is the third Enclave I have had and I loved the two before this one. The only complaint is that they have changed the seats in the 2018-2020. They are the most uncomfortable seats I have ever had in a car.

Engine problem with coolant leak.

Less than 7000 miles on the odometer, Engine and transmission overheated due to coolant leak from cylinder head. Parts to be replaced. Think twice or do some thorough research before buying this model.

Extremely comfortable, has all the options

Our Equinox lease was ending soon and we wanted a larger SUV. We checked out a lot of SUV's and the Buick Enclave Avenir appeared to be the ultimate choice for a larger SUV with all the options. The V6 has plenty of power, the interior is gorgeous, the ride is very smooth, and has the most cargo space for any SUV we checked out. We even liked it over the Cadillac line.

Tranquil

The Buick Enclave is an excellent SUV. It is comfortable and exceptionally smooth driving — tranquil inside, which is a huge deal for me. I love the safety record it has, and I feel very safe driving it. Definitely a vehicle I would highly recommend for any family.

Quietest SUV I have ever drove

Leased the Encalve Premium 2 weeks ago. Have only 2K KM on it. The interior feels like luxury vehicle, drive smoothly, quite, spacious space for everyone. My 3 kids don't complaint about the space (Upgraded from minivan). The 310 horse power satisfy daily use and long trip. It also comes with AWD and FWD switch button. The cons are: the driver's seat is not comfortable for long drive, after 2-3 hrs drive, feel back pain. I just couldn't found a comfortable position although it c/w adjustable lumber support. Another feature we dislike is engine auto start and stop. The engine shut off even for a 3-seconds stop. Strongly recommend to have a disable button like other competitors. The lane departure warning only works randomly, not reliable. ACC is only available in Avenir makes it not customer friendly.

More comfortable than Cadillac SRX

Just sold Cadillac SRX. We were very pleased with it. Stepped in to enclave, it is spacier, rides great, drives great and 1st few trips we are getting 24+ mpg.

drives like a car

I need the extra room as I am 6'3 300lbs. I wanted a smoother and quite ride. i like contemporary stylish interior. Overall I am really impressed with the ride handling, transmision is smooth and you barely notice the stop/start. The LED highlights you can really see down the road at night. Thats a big deal. I had a Envision before and Never have had a problem with any Buick I have had. I notice many negative reviews on Buicks. You need to to check them out. No one has the beautiful styling like BUick. O and the fit and finish is just fine. The only negative is why is there no light in the glove box. And the shifter is great. Yes the reverse is a little different. but after 1 try its just up and left. Becomes natural real fast. Just put 1k miles on last week on Enclave and still real impressed.
