Pleasureway seems to be the quality builder in that group. I would stay away from cassette toilets after using one for 4 years.

I've had 5 Pleasure-ways since 2001 and never had a problem with any of them. They are not a product of an assembly line, every cabinet is measured and made for an exact fit in each of their units. If you don't live within 100 miles of a dealer they will allow you to go to any RV dealer for any warranty repairs and they pay that dealer with a credit card. I would buy no other Class B but a Pleasure-way. Stay away from Winnebago, we purchased a Class A from them 6 years ago, very pool quality control and it takes forever to get them repaired. Good luck on your search, you can call PW to find where your local dealers are located.

Thanks for the replies. As I started researching, I realized that a cassette toilet wouldn't work for us. I appreciate knowing the quality aspect of the pleasureways. My concern with PW is they do not come with a mascerator. Our last unit had one & we really liked it. Since that was our only experience, gravity drain seems a little cumbersome.
Any other thoughts are appreciated!
Thanks!

I've had both, the gravity flush has nothing to go wrong with the exception of a possible valve sticking. If given a choice I would take the gravity flush, just my preference.

We have an 2015 Roadtrek 190P and I love it. It is perfect and has everything that you would need - electric couch that turns into a king sized bed, microwave, stove, 3 way refrigerator, a.c., propane gas, generator, bathroom facilities, awning, and of course electric and water along with the black tank with a macerator system. Now with that in mind - it is now sitting at Camping World in Syracuse, NY for sale. My husband and I are no longer at the age that we want to drive long distances and flying seems to be our best bet getting back and forth from up north and down to the Villages. If we were younger it would be perfect for camping and traveling. Also my husband has never been the camping type so it was mainly used to travel between hotels haha.....

We have had 5 Pleasureways and only traded to get a new one and finally found the floor plan we liked best. They had a nice owners group with 200 PWs going to Canada for three days touring the factory and get togethers. Very nice trip.

If we were to buy a class B, we would have another PW.

We owned a 23' Leisure Travel Van for many years. Very similar to the Pleasure Way and also of high quality. I'm fairly big and found the beds uncomfortable since it doubled as the bench seating. Mercedes engine, highly maneuverable, good gas mileage, 24 mpg.
