We had a 16 284RDB.
Quite a few issues with trim/quality. Nothing major but just several issues. Then in February of 16 we checked it at storage and there was a roof leak, rear over the bunks. Could have been around the rear vent but was not going to dig into it. There was also a BIG issue with running lights/tail lights. A fuse would continually blow. So we traded it.
Since you are buying an 18 chances are (knock on wood) all issues might have been fixed.
Now, whatever you buy just make sure you check EVERY function to see if it operates properly.
We did like ours, it just was not as comfortable as we wished. Could not view the tv from the couch without turning our heads a bunch. Didn't use the bunks near as much as we thought we would, we are Grand/Great Grand parents. Loved the outdoor kitchen and it had pretty good storage. Did not like the fridge with the stinking reostat for adjusting the temp. It was half ton towable for a few half tons. The polar package was so-so. Very easy to winterize. Mixed bag.
Good luck with your venture...
