Entry level vs. mid level. Vs high end
How would you define travel trailers amongst these three categories? II thought it might be a good topic for discussion. What features do you think constitute the differences. I am particularly think...

I certainly do not agree in the least that all RV's/trailers of the 3 levels asked about are built the same or even remotely close. The higher end RV's and the better mid level RV's have much better insulation and sealing, generally much higher level appliances and components, higher level floor coverings and heavier chassis and frame construction and will have higher capacity axles, wheels, and tires and the better ones are ture 4 season units. Better mattresses and furniture and a lot more. Entry level are cheap built and good for mild climate weekend type/vacation use.
Insulation and sealing is very important if the RV is going to be used in hot climates in summer or cold climates in winter. A sweating RV molds and rots from the inside out! Where you can't see until it's too late. It's the difference between only needing one 13,500 btu A/C or needing a 15,000 btu and a 13,500 btu A/C to be comfortable in the south or southwest in summer in the same size RV or having a 35,000 btu running constantly in winter or running less than half the time in winter in the same size RV. The difference between having drafts or floor drafts and it being like a well insulated and sealed home. How important is being comfortable in any weather condition/climate is to the buyer should guide their spending of their dollars as buying and being unhappy isn't very smart as you will live and learn and not make the same dumb mistake again!
It's obvious that some of you people have never been to RV manufacturer's places and taken tours to see the vast differences.
