Wow, I can't imagine how upset I'd be if my brand new camper had even problems like that. I'm not sure where I'd start if it was mine, but here's some thoughts.
I would be sure that all your concerns are documented on some kind of work order before you let it out of your sight. If you're concerned about the potential sag in the slide roof, then definitely make sure it's noted. Likewise for the lumpy carpet as it's probably water damage. Don't be shy to add items to the list that even you might have caused. It's likely that if the factory sees the damage, they'll probably just fix it so let them know where to look.
You might want to even take pictures of the inside and outside of the trailer showing no damage anywhere before you turn it over.
I have read on here that people who had factory repairs done were extremely happy with the outcome. Hopefully your experience is also the same or better than the other posts I've read.
As far as being refurbished, you've got a valid concern to a point. On the positive side I can't see any future buyers asking "Was this trailer ever sent back to the factory and refurbished." It's not like it was wrecked and rebuilt by the wrecking yard and carries a salvage title.
