Eclipse Evolution 23RKS QUALITY?
I'm thinking about buying this TT. They are made in Riverside, CA. Anyone have any experience with this company?

I have a 2011 Eclipse Milan 18CK. Same manufacturer, different line. I purchased it lightly used in 2012. I had to replace the axles and some of the suspension parts. The axles bent, and everything was out of warranty. The local dealer tried to purchase axles & parts form Eclipse and they sent parts that were not even close. Actually that was a good thing, the suspension parts they use are some unknown brand and I ended up getting Al-Ko axles and Dexter Equa-flex equalizers.
The fit and finish are what is to be expected from a lower end product although all of the appliances and equipment seem to be decent brand RV gear. Atwood Stove, furnace and water heater, Dometic microwave & awning, etc. I have done lots of mods and alterations to fix what were (to me) bad designs and layout. The cabinetry I poorly constructed with massive amounts of staples that don't hit where they should and the materials used are all basically contact paper covered woodgrain.
Having said all of that, we get a lot of use out of our trailer and I enjoy doing mods and improvements, so it has been ok for the money. I would definitely research the suspensions that they are using now before purchasing a new Eclipse product.
