One thing I've learned by being on the forums is you can have a low cost entry level trailer like ours and never have a issue or have a high priced popular model and have it go back to the factory to be rebuilt. (or the other way around) There just seems to be no consistency in quality.
I say floor plan, comfort and filling your needs is the place to start. Some floor plans are sold by many makes so if you find one you like move on to comfort and needs. Comfort may be a slide for more room, a couch or bigger beds. Needs are more basic such as size of tanks and room for batteries if you dry camp, 4 season ability if you winter camp, etc.
We didn't go thru 7 in 4, in fact we learned that what you think will work may not before we even bought. There was a 21 ft model we thought would be perfect for the two of us and the dogs. Those sold out and we took a 25 ft model that had bunks and a couch. I have to tell you that the bunks are wonderful for storage and the couch is a godsend over sitting at the dinette. We would have never picked it at first but it is the better rig for us.
