First issue we had was the entry door attaching hardware pulled out and the door basically fell off.
All window dressings were cheap pressboard, and the condensation from the window dissolved it and the vinyl covering peeled off.

The little battery that came with it, would not run the heater over one night, we were required to change to 2 deep cycle RV batteries.
The insulation was 1" styrofoam glued to the flat walls, nothing where the curved portion of the trailer.

IMHO simply a poorly designed and built trailer.
We towed the trailer about 12,000 miles, owned it less than a year.
