Owner of a 2018 4113, so have some experience with that particular model.
Good -
- floorplan is good for family
- having a separate bedroom space with a door/bathroom for daughter has worked out great
- cargo area is very flexible space usage wise - we often use it as the dining room - bedroom upstairs. bikes, etc. when just me and wife
- very functional kitchen, lots of storage
- great storage space having two distinct basement areas
- core chassis seems to be pretty solid - no frame or structure issues thus far
- super stable on the road being a triple axle
- actual plywood flooring, not foam core floors
- large super slide, lots of room
- comes with good tires, suspension, hitch to begin with
- lots of A/C power - once I cleaned up the ducts, no challenges keeping it cool even in summer at the beach, and mine is the prior model with the dark exterior.
- outside kitchen box is really handy, use it all the time
- new ones have hydraulic jacks - way better than prior electric jacks
Bad -
- thing is huge, so have to plan ahead for reservations. cannot fit in lots of places such as older parks. Often end up staying at 'resorts' to have an adequate site
- whoever they had installing fixtures and trim was pretty much useless
- various installation issues that I ended up fixing myself - fridge venting, shower plumbing, dishwasher plumbing leaking, washing machine plumbing leaking, heat ducting not taped up properly, A/C ducting needed cleanup up to flow well
- stupid assembly problems, such as only one axle had the brakes wired up
- venting for fuel tanks was installed wrong
- sawdust everywhere. seriously, even the inside of the power transfer box was full of sawdust.
- crappy to reverse/park being a long triple axle
- large super slide - keep the system lubed properly, etc.
- coroplast not buttoned up correctly at rear or trailer, leaving a huge open gap at leading edge of fuel tanks, so all the 'heat' to the underbelly went right out over the tank. Easy to fix with some reflective insulation, about $5 in materials, just another stupid install issue.
- needed to add more reflective insulation in underbelly area - another easy, cheap, time consuming thing
- patio and rear ramp door not well sealed, had to re-do around edges to keep water out
That said, most of the 'bad' you are going to experience with most every brand these days. Momentums are full of stupid issues too now, for example. Most all the bad for me was install issues I could fix, just irritating and time consuming to have to do so, as warranty efforts were comically bad by the dealer (dealer issue).
Once I sorted those items out, it is a super comfortable unit. Wife loves it. We stay in it 2-3 weeks at a time and do not feel cramped.
