Well NASH (Northwoods MFG) is a very good quality product. However you was asking about a Dutchmen and a Keystone. BTW both are THOR products. Keystone is generally a "better quality" line than Dutchmen, but as I said, both are Thor, and we see more Thor products in for repair, than anything else.
On the above post you mention $20k is your spending limit. Did you look at any Jayco/Starcraft products? They are generally a bit better quality than Dutchmen and most Keystone.

Heartland is also a Thor product, but a general mid to high range product.
We did look at the Jayco and Starcraft but both of them seem to sit about 6-10" lower which would be problematic with the dispersed camping we do. Plus my wife is really set on the 24bhswe floor plan, however if we are going to have nothing but problems with a Keystone product then I will not buy one.
