I am fairly new to the TT world so thought we would start small and work our way up. I was told Heartland has a good reputation and quality control was pretty good. I am not inexperienced enough to think these things meet the same quality control standards that an automobile would go through. It tows nicely behind my Silverado 1500 and for the most part everything works as it should. The bathroom could be a tad bigger but it has tons of storage so.... My question is that I have found a lot of little things wrong with it that should have been caught before it left the manufacture and was a bit disappointed. Lots of screws were not screwed in all the way. Some were missing all together. The vent in the bathroom was only held on by 2 screws because the rest completely missed the ceiling therefore screwed into nothing. The AC is noisy as **** but I spent 2 years in the Navy so I see it as white noise. There is a lot of extra storage under the bed but there are only two flimsy hinges that hold the particle to the rest of the bed so you can liift it up to access the storage. I had to replace both hinges. Even though the walls are flimsy I have found no evidence of a leak structurally or with the pluming. One question I do have is that the roof is too flimsy to walk on and I have a cover to put on for the winter but not sure how t install a cover without climbing on top of the camper. One thing t know about these and all entry level campers is that these things are just slapped together on the assembly line, given a once over and then shipped out to the dealer. You can count on finding minor issues with them but I assume it's the same way with all entry level campers. I winterized it and spent a day going through the entire thing putting in missing screws and tightening loose ones. Just need to figure out how to get the cover on without walking on the roof and I think the camper will last a few years if not longer. Any opinions or advice would be greatly appreciated.
