Super Thanks to everyone. The Atwood 10 gal is about $50 cheaper and about 1/2 the weight (20 lbs) than the Suburban.
On the other hand, I'm finding several places offering replacement parts for the Suburban, but I am hardly seeing any Atwood parts for sale.
Side question. Both brands have a 3/8 inch copper line for connecting to the propane supply and call for using a 'flared' connected. Thoughts? I've made flared connections (and compression connections), but that was several years ago and I'm not sure if any 'newer/better?' methods exist . I want to use a rubber hose between the water heater and an RV 2-Stage Regulator (11 inch WC), attached to an 20 lb Tank.
Any specifics on simplifying the hook-up will also appreciated.

On edit - I done some studying - see next post.
