Seismic's slides and leveling are electric. That's the only downfall I see in their construction. Would rather have the hydraulic version.

Yes I agree...they use the swin-tec slide system even on their large slides...heard a lot of issues about having trouble getting large tec operated slides to work properly.

I've had both hydraulic and electric slides and front jacks. Never had an issue with either....ever. I've owned more 5ers with the electric and other than "slower, I've experienced no "downside to having the electric operated slides and landing gears.

The 4112 that I purchased has the garage A/C, ducted heat pump in living room area and ducted A/C in the bedroom, dish washer, residential fridge, 1800 watt inverter and micro wave/convection oven. Had slide cover put over bedroom slide out and living room slide out and the Winegard HD satellite installed. Also have Splendide vented washer/dryer combo....We purchased for retirement:).

Due to a stroke Aug. 19th, we haven't been camping in it yet, ( purchased Aug 12th.) but I'd bet I've had the longest PDI ever:).. Have spent quite a bit of time in it and found "Nickle-dime" issues and all have been fixed ... Truck has been hooked to it to check for level and the unit is still at the dealership... They have went "above and beyond" on taking care of us since my stroke.

Oh, also had 4 step Torklift Glowstep Revolution steps installed at main entry way. Torklift had approached me before my stroke and asked if I'd like to try them and all I had to do was report on install and send them pictures of install....then I had the stroke...the Torklift people are nothing but classy.. They sent steps to my dealer and paid everything... AND the steps are great for me with my weak left leg...far more stable than OEM steps to go up and down, ( just tossed this out as an extra tidbit of information :))

We've had slides in and out quite a bit, ran the Onan 5.5K gen set, and ran everything in the 5er and it seems like a quality build TH.

The slides aren't what I consider large slides except for living room, so don't know about reported type slide issues posted here, but will find out. We looked at A LOT of different TH's and this one stood out to my wife and I, and this dealership is the best I've ever dealt with, ( Miles RV in Fletcher NC). A Jayco only dealership, except for their truck campers.

Really looking forward to being able to go camping again.
