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.
So we have actually decided to buy a Jayco 23MBH Elite. Is it worth the extra $2,000 to get fiberglass siding. It looks much nicer but I am not convinced its a better quality product. My dad's 2013 Kodiak had a minor leak and caused the whole front of the trailer to delaminate. With aluminum if something gets damaged it's easily replaced.
