So Ed, can your SIL confirm that both complexes were installed by the same

That may be where the problem lies if one (the Goodman) was done by
sub-standard installers.
Don't blame the product until you can't blame the worker.
Oh, and could you maybe re-edit your post to clean up all the typos?
Makes it
hard to read. Thx.

No idea about the installers but, . . .

Installers can screw up air flow, sensor placement and the like that
affect performance. Installers have no control over defective fan
motors.switches, relays, and a bunch of other items in a package the
installer never touches.

The best furnace in your area will possibly be different than in
mine. Buy the brand with the best support in your area, from the best
dealer/installer in your area. It won't be the cheapest up front - but
could well be the cheapest in the long term. My brother got a "lemon"
from a good dealer and 4 years later got every cent back against the
purchace of a new furnace of a different brand. The "lemon" was a
Lennox Pulse that failed 3 times in 4 years.
