We liked our dinnette originally but soon found out it wasn't comfortable or convenient, so I took it out and just used some folding chairs around the table.
This weekend I intended to add an armrest on the end of the couch (one side of dinnette used to serve this purpose), and then decided to attach a small dining bar.
Although small I like it. Very useable from couch and added 2 bar stools. Tight for 3 people but should work. Now looking for small recliners or something to put in the space.
Not for everyone but i think this will work well for us.
