Right now we are really into the Travel Lite Idea i15 and the Travel Lite Express E15. It appears the Express (new) and the Idea (used) can be had for less than $10k.
Both of your choices are very nice. However, the Idea has some counter working space at the sink and the Express doesn't have any. The Idea has a shower; the Express has a tub.
Just a note on RV tubs. They aren't big enough for an adult so don't count on that. Depending on your age and agility, a tub is harder to get into. We'd choose a shower rather than a tub.
The light trailers will not be warm in colder weather and will be hot in warmer temps. They don't have double pane windows. It depends where and when you plan to use it.
Both only have a dinette to sit and usually they are not comfortable if you're stuck inside on a rainy day....but doable.
The floorplans are nice for a 15'. I really wouldn't worry about getting a used if you can check it out thoroughly. At that size many used ones might not have been used much because folks might feel the need to move up to a bigger size. If it works for you...go for it!
Best of luck finding your RV.
