No any camper with a electric slide out. I am in the market for a travel trailer and hear this is a issue on many brands and just trying to find out how common it may be among certain brands.
I think then you are misinformed since from my extensive reading here over the last 6 years I haven't seen where slides are any more prone to leak than other areas of the trailer. I HIGHLY DOUBT you will find any trends among particular slide manufacturers or even trailer manufacturers. IMO the most prone area to leak are the corners and again IMO that is because those are the areas where water can pool because of the raised front/rear end seams and the insert molding from the front/rear going up onto the roof for like a foot. A second fairly common area for leaks are skylights and to some extent antennas.
