Hide-a-bed

[Brantlyj]

So my Hideout claims to sleep 8. Guessing they are counting one on the couch and one in the dining area. Neither are remotely close to long enough to hold anyone older than 5.

Considering replacing the couch with a hide-a-bed. Where can I get something decent that won’t break the bank?

RV furniture is usually designed to be disassembled (to fit through the RV door) and then reassembled once the parts are inside the trailer.

The issue with "finding a hide-a-bed" is whether you can get it through the RV door. There are some made that do come apart, you'll just have to shop with that limitation in mind. As for "RV furniture" it is expensive, it is usually cheaply built and it is, for the most part, uncomfortable to sit, sleep, recline or relax. Just remember back to your first night on your "Ultra-comfort RV mattress"...

I'd start by checking the RV styles on eBay, Amazon and some of the RV parts houses (Camping World, PPL, Trekwood, etc) to see if you can get any ideas on what style, fabric, color would fit your and DW's taste in décor, then narrow the search....

There's lots available that would "fit through the door" but there's a much smaller availability that fits AND is cheap, comfortable and functional...

ADDED: Your Hideout offers an optional "sofa hide-a-bed" as an option. You might consider checking around with some Hideout dealerships. One may have a OEM hide-a-bed sofa sitting in the warehouse from a previous sale where the new owner wanted something different in their trailer, so the hide-a-bed was removed to make the trailer sale. Our Cougar dealer has a lot of "new/removed" furniture in stock at significantly reduced prices when compared to buying a new one from Trekwood or CW.

Thanks. I guess I didn’t even think about a residential unit. Figured they would be two wide.
I’ll check the standard sites. Didn’t know if one brand was better than another. I’ll check my dealer as well
