Would appreciate any recommendations from anyone who has experience with these. Don’t really care for Airstreams.

The quality trailers listed above are nice, we've looked at them, just did not want to pay those prices.
We are very happy with our entry level Coachmen 17BLSE.
It is a 20' unit, and we looked at most all the entry level TT, and found that the quality of the Coachmen was a step above (or several steps above).
We are by no means veterans in this world, BUT, we do seem to use our trailer more than most. We have over 14,000 miles on it in the first 8 months we've owned it. Been in 15 or so States, plus Mexico.
We do lots of weekend trips, and been on a few longer ones.
This year we're planning three larger trips...one north and west, another up northeast all the way into Nova Scotia, and then another trip to Mexico.
We do not winterize it, instead, we spent a bit of $ and effort on tank and plumbing heaters. We have spent many nights in it in well below freezing temps. We've also been traveling in it in temps in the high 90's.
Everything works well, there were a couple initial, small, issues that were easily resolved.
Maybe we just got lucky?
Here are a couple of links about our unit-
