As you may know, Winnebago towables are made in the former Sunnybrook facility. Don't know what their current status is after the big buyout a few years back, but when I bought ours, Sunnybrook had some of the higher quality ratings of all the manufacturers and the longer employee retention numbers. Most have a constant parade of employees moving in and out all the time, and that's hard on quality in any industry. Sunnybrook's employees at the time had an average seniority of over ten years! Almost unheard of in the trailer industry. When employees like their work and are vested in the outcome, they build a better product.
Winnebago had just bought them out when we toured the facility and the work on the new units on the line was pretty impressive. If they retained most of their workers, they probably build about as high a quality trailer as is available today. I have nothing in this, just observations on what I saw in person. Hope this helps.
