For us, we first figured out the floor plan we wanted.
This is it, right here. Floor plan will be a function of how you intend to use your trailer, and you seem to have some pretty good ideas along those lines. Also agree with other replies that say some things should be accessible with slides in, like kitchen/refrigerator & bathroom. This would be doubly important if you are using your TT in cold weather because often keeping the slides in makes it easier to keep your TT heated.
I swear some TT designers never use the products they create; you'll see some really DUMB designs/layouts. Sit in them, walk around in them, imagine yourself doing the things you normally do, and imagine also doing those things when cooped up during a stretch of inclement weather. It will become clear very quickly which TT's will work for you.
Yes, the Hershey show is a huge event, but as others have said you can easily bypass the stuff you are not interested in. My experience is that most exhibitors have a good cross-section of the models they make/sell, not just the popular/high volume units. This is perhaps the best opportunity for side-by-side comparison of what's out there. Take advantage of that. And don't believe the sales people........ Like the designers, very few of them actually USE the units they sell. You've gotten lots of good tips in this thread. Good luck & happy hunting.
