Bays,Water, Insulation,Slideout trays, 450LXi

Hi,
Much of the insulation was waterlogged. Water streamed out when the fiber was held sideways. There was a lot of wood rot and the wound up insulation was of little value. Sadly, the SS sheet is not welded to the chassis tubes, but riveted (at least at the sides). It is also not one piece as I was told also. If the vinyl on the top of the ply had not been drilled and the stainless sheet kept intact, the water problem would have been less. Just a thoughtless , lazy installation of the trays and entertainment center.
The caulking was not good enough in areas to create the separate "Swimming pools" so I got the mini version of the Great Lakes. Not impressed.
Fortunate to have Stainless, no rust.
Perhaps you can comment on the extra larger tubes in bay one (1.5 x 2 vs the others being 1.5 x 1.5).
