Not sure if you pulled the trigger or not but I must have read the same reviews as you. Ive found this pretty consistant across other brands forums aswell so I think most complaints are with travel trailer ingeneral and was is expected out of them. Anyways, we bought our Friendship aka Amerilite new a few months back and the first thing I did was re seal EVERYHING. Used 3 tubes I believe of lapsealant in the roof, 1 tube of silicone on the esterior stuff and resecured up loose drain fitings in the sinks/tub. Just remember water/leaks is the #1 killer of any RV.
