Sounds familiar. Since you mentioned a 7x16 in your other post and a price point...
Here's my 7x16 Cargo Craft Expedition tandem. Factory added two slider windows/screen, single step, 36" RV door/window/screen and full door screen, 4 stab jacks, extra roof vent, delete wall vents, complete set of vertical e-track. ~ $ 4,500.00 delivered to my local dealer, Mathis Trailer and Equipment. This was in 2012. The trailer has lived outside the entire time, one leak in the middle clearance light "curve" of the fiberglass nose cap, (not a build quality issues), otherwise water-tight the whole time. I recall Cargo Craft brags about their leak testing rig. Every trailer goes through this big car wash setup to check for leaks. Expedition is typically a drop axle setup, and the heavy duty build, rounded roof sides, and flat nose, which I preferred. They installed Explorer standard axles/springs at my request. 1" welded tubing 16" walls/24" ceiling, standard screws fasten real plywood inside, Frame is way overbuilt for my needs.
I chose barn doors, standard springs for extra ground clearance, and I chose a color to match my tow rig at no extra cost. As you will see, there were a few issues, mostly communication related, but Cargo Craft sent a crew about 5 hrs drive to my house to correct it. There well may be a nicer finished trailer manufacturer, but this one has been tough, gravel roads, highway miles, tows great. I think I would go with them again, because I know what to expect, and with better communication, all should be well. I feel it has been well worth the purchase price, and when I see other trailers and construction, I think I have gotten "the mostest for the leastest".
