It depends if you will look after it? I will put my hands up, no I didn't.
Sulfation is what kills most batteries, and all it needs is to leave a light on, and you return to a completely discharged battery. Even plugging the whole caravan in, I still managed to completely discharge it. I will assume father-in-law unplugged caravan to mow the lawn.
It does not matter, one year or five year warranty, if you let it go flat then it will not be replaced.
If you remove the battery after every trip and put it in garage with a smart charger then buying good and big is great, if however you leave battery on caravan to power alarms etc. Sitting in storage, then accept the battery will have limited life and buy cheap.
My battery should not have gone flat, but it did. Lucky at the time I had a spare. If mine goes, then car battery goes on caravan and new battery goes on car. But we go for hook up so battery main job is motor mover and car battery better for that.
I always intend to put it on charge, but that does not always happen.
