I have owned a Rockwood, and I currently have a KZ Escape. I would put them at about the same level in quality. Both are decent.
The E20RBT at 420 lb dry hitch weight is going to be too much. Realistically expect the loaded hitch to be 100 lb to 130 lb heavier once you are ready to roll. You have to add the battery and LP to the tongue, and then start filling cabinets and adding fresh water. It really adds up. You would be better off looking at models with about a 350 lb dry hitch. Like the E18RBT, E19BH, etc. In the Roo, you would be ok with the 17, 183, or 19 (not sure which model you had in mind when you mentioned this brand). And yes, Jayco is another brand of similar quality; you might take a look at their floor plans (I have not).
