We've got a 2016 Jayco Seismic Wave 310 and the attention to detail when building the 5er kind of sucked, to be blunt. Originally I needed one with at least a 12.5' garage for my RZR 4 seater but didn't want to go over 40' and tandem axels to keep the weight down to pull with our 2011 F250 6.7
And I really wish we would have bought a GD. I love our Jayco but would have loved a GD a little more.

Totally happy with the Momentum 350M. Sleep 6 comfortably. Transport golf cart in back. We've taken it all over the southeastern states. Load management system works great while running 3 A/C units when it's hot. Few minor repairs covered by warranty. At 38", it's the right size to fit in most camping places we go. The curved from end caps enabled me to not need a slider hitch to use with a 2016 Ram 3500 Mega Cab Dually.
I'd buy it again.

I would agree with the above. We have a 355w and have had quite a few issues, none preventing us from using it though. We have had issues getting things repaired under warranty. I have spoke with several people at Jayco trying to get warranty work done with no luck so far. I have made most repairs myself so far. Local Jayco dealer is a joke, but that's a whole different story.
I too wished I would of bought GD. The 350M is almost identical floor plan to what I have. I have heard mostly good things about GD.

We've owned a Grand Design Reflection 5th wheel for a year now. We love it. Grand Design offers outstanding customer support. Anytime I've had a question or concern I've received a prompt response. Usually within a couple of hours. This is our third 5th wheel and is the best by far.
We wouldn't hesitate to purchase another.

We would have purchased a Grand Design if they had a floor plan that worked for us. I've heard nothing but good things.

We like the 350 but are concerned about the CCC. After golf/cart or side by side and fill water/gas, there doesn't seem to be much cargo carrying capacity left?
The add washer/dryer, generator etc. How are you coping with it. Otherwise we are kinda stuck going with Jayco 355W or Highlander (which is nice but they stopped making 5th wheel toy hauler - scared me off.

As with any of them, you have to find a floorplan that works for you. Having kitchen cabinets that are easily accessible, without a stepstool and with some depth are important to us. Similar to 12" deep cabinets in your house. Some models/brands have nothing close. I personally wouldn't buy the Jayco because of the slide system they use on their large slides so between the 2 you mentioned the GD would be the better choice in my opinion.

Wow, overwhelming support for the Grand Design. We love our Jayco Seismic 4212 and intend to keep it for a while.

We have had nothing but issues with our Jayco Seismic 4212, 2 years of hell. If I could get rid of it I would buy a Grand design!

X2...Just got back from a trip to Moab with my 355W and have a few new issues to add to an already lengthy list. Some I fixed on my own (had too) like all the wires fell out of the shore power plug socket. Never were tightend at the factory. My experience with Jayco service is terrible. Worst I have ever experienced.
