Buy it. Penny and I love ours.
I'll list the things that have gone wrong in the first year for you.
1) Rear stabilizer jack motor and power jack motor failed due to water incursion. Both Lippert components with a history of this. Improved models installed under warranty.
2) Broken plastic knob on stove igniter. Part shipped to me by Dometic - no cost
3) Gas strut on bedroom door failed (another Lippert). Part sent to me - no cost
All of these things could've happened to any number of makes and models as Lippert and Dometic supply to everyone.
The only problems we've had that can be said to relate to the assembly process at the Rockwood/Flagstaff plant are a piece of plastic trim popped partly off a built-in side tabl and a small, slide window sticks now and then.
Our Rocky has had over 3000 mi. of pounding down the rode this past year. We are happy with our trailer's performance.
