So far so good, I looked long and far for something built decent and not priced through the roof, after a month and about 500 miles, 5 nights in it and countless days fiddling with it I have no regrets. Lots of changes and stuff in store but it is a nice rig. We bought a 2 inch foam topper for the "pillow top" mattress, and it is serviceable for a year or so. The only glaringly obvious missing item is any 12v charging options (cigarette lighter style) inside the coach. I've remedied that in the kitchen area, but am still scoping out where to put one up in the bedroom. We have a 12v "electric blanket" that we like to use to preheat the bed on chilly evenings, so I've got to put one up there someplace too.
Being 35 ft. with two axles is nice in that it isn't side-loading the wheels and tires like a 3 axle, but she cheats a bit on the swing, not a disaster but you need to pay attention til you get used to it.
Just two of us with two small dogs and the occasional grandkid, and our side by side UTV, it is perfect.

I noticed on some units there is a 10W solar charger for things like cell phones etc? Sounds like a nice option? Have you had it on the scales yet? Wondering if the advertised pin weight is anywhere close?

The 10watt solar is a battery maintainer for the coach, not a solar charger for your phones...I have yet to put a meter on it on a sunny day to see if it is delivering anything. My prevous RV had a nice Seimans Solar system on it, and I am going sold on the Solar RV deal, so will be saving my pennies to build up a system.
As to the weights, I think they are remarkably close to as advertised. That is based on knowing exactly what my prior stuff weighed and how the truck pulled, and now knowing how it pulls this.
I will get it weighed next spring and know for sure.

Picked it up a couple weeks ago. Giving it it's first shakedown trip this weekend. Our 07' Raptor served us well but it was time for a change. Many nice features with this unit. Overall build quality is very good.

Only 2 axles?? what are they 9k axles? Nice looking 5er....

I believe 8K. H rated tires. I am liking it much better than our triple axle Raptor. Much less tire scrub in the turns.

I agree with ya on the triple axle scrub, I actually rotate mine every so often as the front and back scub and the middle looks like new....

Yes. I replaced front and back tires on the Raptor this spring as they were wearing badly. Very rounded over on the shoulder and getting thin on the tread. Middle ones looked like new so I left them alone.

2014 Eclipse Attitude 32 AKLG, (35 ft.) behind my 1997 F-350 7.3 Diesel, CC/LB 4x4 dually.
Only one trip so far, but everything is working well. Pulls and stops like a champ.
