Chair storage

Hello all,
We just purchased a 2018 40RT and other than in the basement, does anyone have ideas where to store the 2 extra dinette chairs?

On my Challenger 37ND the two extra chairs were folding chairs and go stored under the bed.

Thanks Dave,
No storage under the bed on this one due to the electric bed...we did have the under bed storage in our 2008 Tuscany...newer not always better ;-)

2 closets in the bedroom, would take up 1/4 of the space. Thor (or whoever) made these things really beefy so thick when they are folded. Thanks for the idea...

Thanks for the idea. Although I do think there is enough room to store something not much thicker then a shot gun, not sure there is enough room for the chairs. They do fold but they are thick even when folded...will give it a try.
Thanks for the response

I had the same issue, They took up to much space and we just don't use them that often, They are at home in a closet. We bought a couple of smaller folding chairs and store them in trash bags(to keep clean) underneath. Not as nice of chairs but take up way less space.

Could you store them vertically against a wall? Wrap them in a blanket, and use velcro to hold them in place...

If you are not really using them, have you considered leaving them at home?

Ours lived in a storage cupboard when we had a similar setup. Our current coach didn’t come with standalone chairs, but it did have big heavy tabletop that you have to pick up and position over a supporting metal tube after putting the slide out. Yeah...like that’s gonna happen! The table and supporting leg are now in the garage. Things like that are handy to have at resale and until then they live wherever they fit...but not in our coach!

We kept our's under the bed for a couple of years. When we realized we never used them, we got rid of them. Changed the table and dining chairs as well.

Almost all that have these chairs store them under the main bed or in the closet! But it is really up to you. You are traveling and need much storage space for you and all others in coach. You put your main items where you want and store the chairs wherever you want. If you never have any use for them leave them home! If that is not an option you could store them underneath where you could get them if needed. It really is your business only!!
