I have owned Fleetwood in the past. Generally I have had good experience with them but that being said the construction of the cabinets, electrical, plumbing, etc is all going to be close to the same when you really start poking your head inside things and looking closely. Fleetwood has had some issues in the past with their construction just like all the rest. I believe that around 2005 or so they started making changes for the better. It was my understanding that Fleetwood had filed for bankrupcy and was in trouble. Think of the impact of that on warranty issues in the future. FR with the backing of Berkshire Hathaway isn't going away anytime soon and has been generally very good with legitimate claims even out of warranty. Look at more than just the rigs, look at the bigger picture.
