My daughter has 4 kids under 8 years old so they needed a bunk house. Slide out(s) are mandatory for more inside space on rainy days. One of her "must haves" was a U-shaped dinette. Plenty of room for everyone to sit down. They have "standard" A/C and no television.
One feature of the Jaycos that I like is the curved roof. No water pooling up there ! Personally, I think I would prefer a more robust manual awning than some of the low end power awning that bend/break in a light breeze. Not a fan of an "outdoor kitchen". The plywood that Jayco uses for bed platforms is ridiculously thin. Maybe adequate for the kids bunks but you will need bracing or thicker plywood under the queen bed.
Quality, brand to brand and even within a brand seems like a **** shoot these days.
