We went a saw one in person in Arizona, a bit of a let down. All the cabinetry are connected with what look like IKEA type joints covered in a silly plastic round cover. If you look at any video you can easily see them. I am talking over 100 easily seen around the camper. These plastic caps are not the same color as the walls or cabinets so they stick out like a sore thumb, plus several were already lying on the floor, they WILL rattle off as you drive down the road. $90+K for that kind of construction, plus some of the kitchen cabinet doors will not aligned with each other. At that price point I want excellence in all areas.

well thats a disapointment. The 820 I looked at a year or two ago was that "euro" style with the curved counter doors and such but they looked deicently built.
I just watched a video to see what you are talking about, Ya I saw the fastener covers, but to me it looks like it is anywhere you may have to service for the alde system or major electrical. for example the kitchen doesnt realy have any but any of the radiant areas along the floor have it. also the upper storage over the table, I wonder if that is optional or has to be removed for spicific maintenance. I actualy like it that they made it easier to remove interior things to work on the unit, but I do agree they could have matched the color, or maybe they were going for that same famly color contrast who knows, it wouldnt be a deal killer to me. as for them popping out, I imagin some wern't put in properly at the factory, usaly thoes things are hard to get out in the best situations.
but to me this unit ticks a lot of boxes but yet has a lot of things I don't want in a camper. it could have been so much more than it is if they would have stayed away from the electric range or inductive cook top and compressor fridge. plus only one propane tank. this is a weekend boondocker at best, maybe a bit longer if you watch your power usage, or in the summer.. a second propane tank, the ability to cook with propane and cool your food with propane would have been awsome. and that could be as simple as a stove with one propane burner and one induction.
