Certainly one thing to consider is weight for similar length rigs. Compare what you are looking at to the build on an Arctic Fox of similar size. Almost everything in the Fox is heavier build than many others.
Even compare the different model lines in the Northwood lineup. There is lots of clues when you start to look hard.
Good advice and exactly what we did....and then bought an Arctic Fox...It's our 4 travel trailer...all from different manufacturers. The Arctic Fox (Northwood Manufacturer) is by far the heaviest and the best... and the most expensive.
Also check the CC - carrying capacity. Very lightweight entry level units generally have a very low CC.
