We have looked at those, and they do look nice. However, since they are owned by Thor, I do not think we would consider buying one. Thor has a pretty terrible reputation for build quality and warranty support. Of course, what builder doesn't these days? Not many.
Thor or Forest River, pick your poison! Some divisions are worse than others on build quality/customer service. We had a '06 Cedar Creek and after several years of owning it, one of the local techs at dealer told me then we had a better built coach than the new Creeks. Sold that Creek and now have a Big Country (Heartland/Thor) and had 1 issue which was taken care of by Heartland. Otherwise very good coach. Since this quote was made by what sounds to be a person who mows, MTD makes mowers for several companies, can you say the same about them? Even John Deere makes a lower quality line to compete w/ the likes of MTD. Not until you move up into a HD JD line will you see a vast difference in things.
