My experience has been the opposite: I've been using Windows since 3.1, Mac OS since X and KDE since 3.3 (IIRC) and I've always preferred KDE (3, then 4, now 5) as my default desktop, both at work and for personal use. I've tried Gnome and several other desktop environments on Linux, yet KDE suits me best. Regarding code and quality in general, dolphin, okular, gwenview, digikam, marble, konsole, kate, plasma, kwin, kwallet, filelight, okteta, ktorrent, in my opinion, rate higher than or at the same level as the best corresponding applications on other platforms. Functionality wise, I prefer amarok, too, but it is getting buggy and development has almost stalled.
Some KDE applications that have proved buggy indeed are kontact, kmail, akonadi, k3b. I still use kontact, although it is quite buggy; the closest to an alternative for it is Outlook, which is unfortunately also buggy, slow and runs only on Windows. The reason for the low quality of kontact and the accompanying infrastructure seems to be the lack of resources and some errors in the design of akonadi.
You reminded me of Dolphin. It left me in the lurch many times while using Leap 42.1 (KDE 5.4.2). Often, it crashed for nothing. It was almost impossible to use it to open a terminal on a folder, copy or move files. Many times I opened Konsole and moved files by hand. On Leap 42.2 (KDE 5.8.2), it crashed less often, but still used to crash for no apparent reason. I think Dolphin has indeed more features than Nautilus. One I miss is the ability to split the window, but nothing that putting two Nautilus windows side by side does not solve. And Nautilus almost never crashes (at least for me). KTorrent is another example of KDE software that haven't worked for me. While still using KDE, I moved to Transmission. Sometimes, I added a torrent to KTorrent which didn't start, then I added the same torrent to Transmission and it started immediately, I don't know why. But Dolphin and KTorrent have not always been that way. I remember of them working well on KDE 4.x. One app I miss is Gwenview. Sometimes, when I miss some feature of it on Shotwell, I still open Gwenview.
