Than again, brand is mean less and you have to compare actuall models.
My Lance 1161 had nice finishes, but poor engineering and small things that drove me crazy.
Raised toilet was good, but shower pan/curtain was about 1" smaller than on my Fleetwood with the same bathroom design.
Some might say 1" is not big difference on scale, but heck of a difference in real life.
When I could take comfortable shower in Fleetwood, turning around in Lance shower was horror as the curtain was laying on my back.
Same with high steps to Lance dinette.
I see they made basement on 1172 model, so less steps to dinette, but than you have higher camper to deal with.
It all comes to a compromise that works the best for you.
