I'll certainly agree that TT build standards and the products they use are in general not up to the quality we expect based on other products, our and several friends and campers experience with trailer expected life and issues has been positive. We've logged 60K + miles on our 2010 outback, camp 30-60 days/year, early on young grankids crawling around on stuff now as teen agers joining us. We've gone through several sets of tires, but no blowouts, I have touched up and kept caulking in good shape and use a cover when not in use. Outside looks like new, none of the appliances have given us any trouble. I will admit to some upgrades that we all likely would wish would be standard features:
spark ignitor for the oven, micro air thermostat to replace the 50 year old design of the OEM thermostat, micro air easy start so I can run the AC off a honda 2200, sea-level gauges to I can really see how full (or empty) our tANKS are, added more vents and did a better job of sealing the ducting for the AC, replacing the uninsulated heat duct runs with rigid 4" ducts and insulating them.
Our camping friends, most not near has handy as I haven't done many upgrades but have taken care of the trailers and none of us have had issues with leaks, appliance failures, interior issues etc.
I will admit to one warranty issue. After the first winter the finish on the alloy wheels started to haze and crack. Being anal I asked the dealer if this was covered under warranty. Dealer took pictures, called back about a week later said "come on in and we will put your new wheels on". Keystone replaced the wheels, paid for remounting and balancing the tires no issue.
