We had a standard pull out couch in our 5ver. I watched craigslist till I saw a reasonably priced Lazyboy love seat recliner. It is now in our 5ver and the pull out couch sold to a guy who wanted it for his house. The Lazyboy recliner is pretty comfy. There is no need to purchase expensive "RV" furniture in my humble humble opinion.

I purchased the entertainment seating from them. Great service I feel the quality is good would buy from them again.

Did this in our TT. BIG difference.
The La-z-boys are actually the other side up.
Trouble with pictures today.

We upgraded our furniture a number of years ago. The heaviest was the; flush with the wall, dual reclining love seat. It's weight was almost identical to the old bed/couch that came with the trailer. The newer TV was just a fraction of the weight of the old analog TV. Replaced the two single recliners with the rocker with a foot stool. More weight saved. Yes those are venetian blinds, custom made throughout. Got them before the new push-ups became popular. Very compliable in weight.

All from furniture stores or Home Depot/Lowe's.

OK CW. What's the deal? It appears your trailer is set up in the RV showroom??? Here I am, living in mine for the past few months and I wouldn't dare take a picture of it like you did. I think puppy has a toy for every square foot.....and I just buy her more because she loves them!

I replaced the L-shaped sofa in my old motorhome several years ago with a 3-section set of recliners from RecPro. The quality was not too bad and they were comfortable. My opinion is that the Thomas Payne line of furniture is a little bit above the RecPro, but I'm not sure that it is worth the additional cost. Bottom line - I don't think that you can go wrong with the RecPro.

It's just the way we are. Everything has it's place. Works well for us. We've been married 60+ years, spent 30+ traveling with the USN.


Here is a pix of our w/d combo. Notice that it's on the lower level just a bit forward of the axles. On the kitchen cabinet you can see a 7" plastic tie. I get them at Home Depot for $15.00 a thousand. We leave the contents in the cabinets in place, put in a pillow and then a tie on the handles. Works great with that type of handles.

In the reference below you can see the interior pictures of a 363K as it came equipped. We upgraded the A/C to a Carrier 15K and added the W/D. Take note of the OE tire size, ST235/80R16 LRD. They were problematic from day one until upgraded to LRE. (GY Marathon USA built LRD to LRE).

We replaced everything

2014 Raptor originally had only 2 barstool seats at small kitchen island to use as dining area.
We replaced our sofa and 2 recliners with a sectional sofa with 4 fully reclining seats and microfiber upholstery. Much lighter weight than original and extremely comfortable.
Replaced 2 really uncomfortable rocker recliners with ordinary kitchen table and chairs. Absolutely wonderful to dine in normal height chairs, and have ample table space for working on laptop or sewing machine.
