I researched this brand/line of trailers pretty extensively prior to buying my Keystone Hideout. Like my Hideout, the Rockwood is a pretty mid/low end product. To me a lot depends on how often I plan to use it. I'm still working so it's just a few weekends a year and a few weeks in the summer. For that, these lower end RVs are great and I feel I'd be throwing money away in depreciation on a more expensive unit. If/when I have more time to be out camping there's no way I'd expect one of these "weekend warrior" units to hold up.
