TriumphGuy, I really haven't had any issues I wouldn't expect to see on any unit. Our fridge died 3 or 4 years into it (can't recall) we had negotiated on the extended warranty when we bought it and the dealer was amazing about getting a new one installed fast so we could still make our trip. A couple years ago the converter died too, thankfully it was just before the warranty expired and the dealer helped to get a better one installed, had it all covered too.
I would have been ticked off if I had to pay for the fridge replacement but I blame that on Norcold more then Winnebago. Ours is on the F53 chassis, I won't any land speed races but it's done great hauling us all over the Northwest, down to Utah and into the mountains there. It does just fine for me. Just replaced tires due to age, even the tire guys said the wear pattern looked real good.
The mattress is the only weak spot in ours, should have replaced it a long time ago. One thing I love about the 35J is that amount of storage, there is a ton both inside and out.
The rain fall on the fiberglass roof can sound loud the first time out, particularly if you're used to rubber roof. But we've come to love being able to actually hear the rain.
We've had some wonderful family memories with our Winnebago. If I were to buy another they will be right at the top of the list. But do your homework and find the best unit for your family.
