My new system up north is a Trane. Is it a decent machine? Here's the specs:

Air Handler in garage attic is 3.5 ton Trane, Model 5TEM6D05AV41SAA
Heat Pump at side of house is a Trane Model 5TWR5.

This system is for the 1800 sqft upstairs area of a 3000 sqft house in East Tennessee. It replaced an 18 year old system. I'm waiting on the downstairs unit to die before replacing it. Since it is used much less frequently - only when we have guests. Or have to live downstairs temporarily because the upstairs unit died

The HVAC guy stated it's a 3.5 ton, Trane 16 SEER II with a variable speed blower installed to existing duct work, thermostat, and refrigerant pipes.
