We bought our 3rd Jayco product last year. A Pup in 1993, a 17ft hybrid in 2003, and now our current HTT. All well built and solid. Never any real problems with any of them.
That said, if another manufacturer had a floor plan we liked, we would not dismiss it. In fact before we bought ours we looked at several others including KZ and no one had a floor plan quite like the X20E. It was the slide with couch that won us over.
The one negative "skeleton in the closet" I would say is that the fit and finish can sometimes leave one rolling their eyes. Our current trailer had a slightly mis-aligned bathroom door that wouldn't latch. Easy fix. A piece of the plastic weather cover over a retaining rail on the outside was cut short exposing a couple of screws. Another easy fix. That kind of thing. Nothing big, just annoying. With our 2003 model I caught a couple of minor things on the walk through that the dealer fixed right away.
BTW, I'm on the Jayco owners forum. Good suggestion. There really aren't too many complaints. In general, Jayco seems to be pretty good about backing up their stuff, but there is at least one person who really went through the ringer with their trailer and never did get it resolved. but I think that can happen with any manufacturer.
