Opinions on 2018 Gulfstream Conquest 276BHS

Hi All, Can anyone provide opinions on the 2018 Gulfstream Conquest 276BHS? Reliability, weird lay out issues, anything else to consider? Has anyone owned one, or heard good/bad things, etc.?

We have been looking for a used model and there is one of these for sale around us. The dealer is offering a price of 18,999. Per the pictures it almost looks unused. I'm not sure why such a new trailer was already traded in so that makes me a bit skeptical. We will obviously try to look it over closely, but this is our FIRST RV purchase so any advice in this front would be appreciated as well.

Thanks!

    We have owed and used a Gulfstream Class A coach for many years, and have been well pleased. Other than that, I know nothing about their other products.

    99% of all trailers are built the same way, same pretty sloppy workmanship and materials. appliances are all by one or two manufacturers and in general very reliable
    buy the floor plan you like and read up on maintenance

    We have a 2016 GS 238RK and have been satisfied with it.

    Like others have said, quality can be hit or miss. I'd have them prove every system works from plumbing to electrical to propane. Thoroughly examine to roof and interior walls for leaking. After that, give them a low offer and see what they say.

    Thanks everyone! In the end I think we are buying new. We found a Coachmen 287BHDS and the dealers price seems good. They were very low pressure with no hidden fees. We are taking the weekend to think it over but we are likely pulling the trigger on Monday. Thanks for the advice to just look for what you like. I'm happy to have a 1 year warranty for a new camper.
