How much U-shaped dinette weighs

Considering taking out the U-shaped dinette and table and need to know how much it all weighs before ordering a loveseat. 2016 Bullet 22RB

Doubt that unless someone has torn theirs out & happen to weigh the pile, this is an impossible question to answer.
Hopefully you're not that close on weights that you have to account pound for pound.
Personally if you want a love seat, get it.

The dinette is cushions, 3 pieces of 1/4” plywood, 15-20 LF of 1x2 pine and some paper-faced luan, plus the table top and hollow posts. All in, you are probably 50 lbs. max.

Dinette

We are just afraid the weight on the slide might damage the slide.

The material weight that moves with the slide is probably less important than the loaded weight in the deployed position. Add the weight of 6 adults plus the weight of the dinette and you have an as-is weight target. Then add together the weight of a loveseat and 2 adults and compare which is heavier. My guess is that a loveseat would work

The only "negative consideration" (IMHO) is that when the slide is in the travel position (in) the floor is usually not supported. The slide may not be constructed to provide the structure to carry the weight of the loveseat over bouncing roads without pulling the edges of the slide floor away from the wall structure. I can't tell you whether there is any "extra beef" in slides installed with heavier furniture options or if they are all "built the same" and it's not a concern.

I'd be sure to consider where the loveseat sits and how it places weight on the slide while the floor is not supported. Roads these days don't do RV's any favors, adding extra weight to the slide floor may not be a good idea.

All slides are not "created equal" and what works with a RAM type slide may damage a cable slide. Then again, it may not make any difference.
