We have a older Dutchman and it's holding up pretty good. At the time (2006) it had higher end features much like the refrigerator in your photo, OMG that thing is big.

We sat in it at the local show as well a while back. Pretty sweet unit and the bedroom is real nice that is not pictured as well. To top it off the only tweak we saw was it would be nice to have an extra slide where the recliners are. As big and open etc that it is the living room area is narrower than many living rooms. Especially the rear living with opposing slides. Add those to this living room and double wow. I need to buy a new truck first as it is a heavy beast and will probably need a set of duallies from what I recall.

I've never understood the appeal of the rear entertainment models just for that reason.

It's an interesting floorplan for sure, but watching both TVs at the same time might result in a volume war given how close they are.
I liked the Infinitys I looked at a few months ago, but the model with the floorplan I really wanted to see had a slide that didn't work so it was closed for repairs.
Really? Brand new and a slide doesn't work? That didn't exactly speak craftsmanship to me. One of the other units had a storage door than wasn't mounted properly so you had to force it to get it to close. That left me with the impression they leave a lot of things for the dealers to fix.
But hey, the used Day Dreamer I just bought needs both living room slides adjusted because they don't seal properly. It had to come from the factory like that and I guess the original owners didn't realize there was a problem.

That is one of the more unusual and appealing floor plans I have seen in a very long time.
I do like it.
However, according to specifications it has a Lippert 10" heavy duty drop rail Z frame chassis. Not going to bash Lippert here, no need for that. But I would think a little heavier (thicker) frame would give one more confidence.
You're going to make a high end fiver, then put high end material underneath it. Mobile Suites and Hitchhiker use 14 inch or better frames in theirs. At 12,516 pounds unloaded, this model needs some heft in the right places.
