We have a North Ridge, which is the "value brand" sister model to Brookstone (same floor plan, lower-end finishes). I have made quite a few repairs and modifications to the unit over the years to correct deficiencies in construction and design.
The thing that sold us on the unit initially is that the slideouts had an interior height of 6'7". I'm 6'5", and DW doesn't like it when I hit my head on things. She says that I'm not rich or good-looking enough to get away with being stupid, so I need to avoid getting too many head injuries.
