Recommendations for well built trailer

Need recommendations for a well built travel trailer, not one put together with a staple gun. Our SUV probably cant handle a toy hauler, so we will have to stick with a travel trailer or hybrid. I dont really want to go over 4000lbs uvw and no more than 500 lbs tongue weight, with a max length of about 21 feet. We live in the mountains, and camp off road the desert. Not looking for anything extreme, but it needs to be sturdy. Thanks in advance!

    Thanks Bear for your perspective. How do you judge how well a trailer is built? What are some things to look for?

    Goducks10- nice trailer..dont see too many for sale in California. I do like the layout.


    look at the demo frame of a living lite all welded aluminum. look at the roof, no rubber.

    The Nash 22h would be exactly what I am looking for, but I dont like the layout. Its very well built, got plenty of insulation, and has an off road chassis. If it had bunk beds, or even a hybrid option, I would definitely buy one. Thanks for your recommendation.

    Nash 17k... built sturdy for off highway travel, but might still be too heavy for your SUV
