Best quality skylights?

I just discovered a crack in my 28 year-old shower skylight. There are dozens of different brands out there. Anyone have a recommendation?
FYI, 18 x 26 overall with 2” dome. 14x 22 opening

Pretty sure I ordered an Icon.

You give them the measurements yo want, and that's what they make.

Quality seems good!

ICON X2. Great quality, better than the original in our case.
Almost twice the thickness.

I also replaced both the AC shrouds with ICONs.
Same thing, great fit and quality.

I had considered not putting it back in and cutting in a panel. But I can use that couple extra inches of head room.

No need so far but my first source would be, if hole size is compatible, an openable marine hatch.

RV builders are notorious for using cheap junk. Having more than 25 years as a boater before RVer I am always marinizing the RV wherever I can with better quality hardware.
