Big Country 3070RE vs Silverback 29IK

I have 2011 Silverback 29RE and have been very pleased with it.

Prior trailer was a rear entertainment. Could not figure out why more folks didn't order one. Sorry to say its the last floor plan I would consider now.

What is the 2yr warranty for? I believe the bumper to bumper is only 1 year from everything I have read (our previous Big Horn was), although I know it is rated for fulltiming. If it is 2 year that would be a definite plus.

Only Heartland Landmark has a two year warranty....everything else is one year.

1. WHAT IS COVERED
Heartland RV provides to the original retail purchaser who purchases the unit from an authorized dealer and who uses the vehicle for private single family recreational travel, camping and seasonal usage a one (1) year warranty under normal use against defects in material and/or workmanship in the construction of the vehicle and its original components. "Defect" means the failure of the unit and/or the materials used to assemble the unit to conform to Heartland’s design and manufacturing specifications and tolerances. Any product used for a commercial or business purpose, including, not limited to, rental, charter, or for other fees for service, or as a residence is excluded from this Limited Warranty. (This residential limitation shall not apply to Land Mark, Big Horn and Big Country brands.) This Limited Warranty is intended for the original retail owner and is non-transferable.

So the BC, BH and Landmark are rated full time, but the Landmark is the only one with a 2yr warranty?

Exactly...

Is there anyone that actually has one of these models? Would really like to hear from an owner's real experiences with them.

Both of those models look like sore neck TV viewing angles. I just do not understand the rear entertainment set up with seating on two sides of the TV. I want theater seating that looks straight at the TV. Silver Back 33RL or Big Country 315RL both have this!!!! Sit in them and pretend that you are watching a two hour movie. TV on the rear may look great walking in, however is that how you want to watch TV?

Thanks for your input. We have chosen both of these models because they are under 35' and we had a 2009 Big Horn 3400RE that had the rear entertainment center. We enjoyed the layout.
