We have camped twice so far in ours. Hubby is already considering trading it off. He is concerned about the number of "little things" which seem low quality - trim that wasn't nailed down, drawer catches that weren't installed, a furnace that mostly only heats up the back bunkhouse, the back slide mangled the back curtain rod somehow, we have trouble lighting the oven pilot light, the jack bottom rotated as we cranked so they replaced that...
We did have the frosted glass in the entry door replaced with clear glass so that we can see our own campsite without going to the bedroom window or climbing up on the bunk in the bunkhouse. I can post after we camp next how that works out. We then bought a heat cover that velcros to cover the window for privacy. The problem is that with the screen door next to the inside of the door it won't be very simple to decide to either cover or uncover the window in the door - no lifting up the cover to peek out without first opening the door and pulling the screen door away.
Still loving the layout and the open, roomy feel, and the massive quantities of inside storage - which we have nowhere near full anywhere.
The couch with the big pillowy-type armrests, though, isn't the most comfortable couch and the armrests make it harder to lie down on.
We once had a Durango. Within days after getting it, my husband was driving through dealer lots to see what else was available, and within 10 months we switched vehicles. I have a feeling this camper isn't going to last very long, either.
That is not to say that we don't like it, we are very comfortable in it. He is just concerned with lack of quality and if everything isn't going to hold up well, he wants to get rid of it before things start going bad and it goes out of warranty.
