Keystone Premier 31 BHPR vs SolAire 317BHSK vs Aerolite 315

Hello all.

We are seeking your input. We are down to the following three TTs, unless someone has another we should consider. Let me tell you what led us here:

1. 3 kids, so need for 3 bunks (or 2 bunks and a convertible couch/table in the bunkhouse).
2. Aerolite led us to the king size bed. But once we realized it wasn't a true king size, SolAire and its true 60 x 80 queen showed on the radar (I'm 6' 3", so a lenghtly bed is very appealling).
3. Outside kitchen. We like to tailgate, so outside of camping, this is very appealling.
4. Barreled roof...again, 6' 3" so the regular height TTs feel claustrophobic to me.
5. Modern decor.
6. Under 6,600 lbs or so dry.
With that criteria, you can probably see why these came to the top of the list. We'd love to hear your input on this...pro, con or others to consider.
(Oh, and we're good on understanding our tow capacity with these TTs).

Thank you!

Does anyone have any thoughts? Since this original post, I'm probably most leaning toward the SolAire due to its true queen bed (60x80).

We purchased a 317 BHSK abut a month ago...We had our shake down trip last week and only had a couple of issues. We have two girls, 8 and 9 and they love the bunk house. We like that there were actual doors in the camper and not just curtains. We looked at several but for price came down to the Keystone Bullet and the Solaire...we liked the Solaire better.

I haven't seen my solaire since may 27th. It is currently at the factory. The story is too long and makes me too angry. It's a lemon of the highest order. I will refrain from getting nasty.

Thank you for the feedback.

AntlerMan...I sure hope it's "just"...one bad unit and that they get you squared away.
