Try looking at ATC. We have had over 30 years various rv motorhomes and trailers. Currently in a 2017 28 front bedroom. Using as a travel trailer. No toys. Built like a tank. No slideouts to fail or leak. All aluminium top to bottom. Built in 5.5 Onan. 100 gallons of water. Torsion suspension.
Just got tired of traditional rv construction. Too many hidden surprises.

It comes down to how they are assembled and quality control. These things are all rushed out as fast as possible (for the most part). Every RV out there will have some QC issues, what matters is if it's caught before it leaves the factory and if not then how they respond to service after the sale. Plus some have major problems due to poor engineering. While many of the major parts are made by the same company, such as the frames, some manufacturers have their own specs for these and are built to those specs, others just buy what the builder sells them. Finally some are just made cheap by inexperienced, rushed labor.
I'd say that Heartland started off very strong and a good reputation for service, but over the years their support after the sale and some QC issues have been a bit more frequent. If you spend time reading here you see cycles like this repeated, some make changes and recover and some don't.

Looking for feedback. We started off in a tent, travel trailer, 5ver, Class A Diesel Pusher and now RV'less and looking to get a travel trailer toy hauler.
It seems to meet all of our needs, get to take my truck, open bed for hauling, garage for golf cart and increased sleeping capacity from the Class A.
The T32 has a side deck that folds down, rear ramp and seems to be pretty nice. Electric jack, electric stabilizer jacks, outdoor tv and 4 place theater seating sofa. King bed and garage had two folding couches that make into bed and another that drops from the ceiling.
Any regrets with a toy hauler from current owners?
Anything we need to be award of? pros and cons?
Yep, I have the same model bookmarked, and it looks so good, a little long for me, but awesome. Problem is all I hear about Heartland is problems, and problems. It's a shame, cause the design is nice. Sure people say go ahead buy it and live with the problems, or fix them. I don't have time to spend that much money and live with the problems, or fix a new rv on my time. Though I am not crazy about the floorplans or equipment, I am leaning to the aluminum models like ATC, Livinlite, and Sundowner.
