Now that our boys are older, we are looking to get rid of the toyhauler and buy a more residential 5th wheel. We had a Cedar Creek bunkhouse when the kids were small and had very good luck and good memories. We are looking at Cedar Creek again but a few Grand Design Solitude models have caught our eye. We are not familiar with Grand Design and wonder about their quality. They have very nice features but is it just eye candy?

I love my KZ ! Look at them for quality and warranty! Go up to Terry Vaughn's in spring! Ask for Sean, my son bought one from him and I met a guy in Colorado who had one like my sons that he bought from Sean also! Bruce

We looked at Grand Sesign really hard recently before settling on our Arctic Fox. They have some nice features, but felt for the price point they left some important things off or went with lesser quality than I would have thought. We were loocking at their Reflections line. The biggy that kept us looking were no shocks. The factory rep stated they didn't need shocks due to its weight.

I purchased my Grand Design Reflection in 2014. As far as I'm concerned, they have good quality. But their best feature is their customer service. If you ever have a problem, you can call their customer service line and talk to a real person who can usually handle your call or question in just one try.As for the lack of shock absorbers? These units come with the Equa-Flex system which really reduces vibration and road induced damage. I have over 20,000 miles on mine now, and there is no issue with vibration or shock induced problems.Equa-Flex System

We are very happy with our Grand Design Reflection. Most other owners I've met also love their rig. We purchased in 2013. GD service is outstanding. Check out the granddesignownersforum .com

For us it was down to Grand Design and Outdoors RV Manufacturing, they were the finalists based on customer service reviews. We chose the latter because they had the floor plan we liked the best.
