Metal man - I don’t remember if I let you know but they work well. They do give me some head support at 6’ 2”. Not like at home but a helluva lot better than the worthless jackknife loveseat. Let’s see if I can upload a pic.

Tom did your recliners over hang past the area of your slide? I bought two recliners and a love seat console which will be about 11” into my tile area. My concern is when the slide goes in and out, will I need to put some type of roller system on the front?

Thanks JGT

I would LOVE to replace the dinette in our 24F with reclining theater seats! It's incredibly uncomfortable, and we have NOWHERE to just kick back and relax. The only two options are the bed and those uncomfortable dinette benches. I would LOVE to have a couple recliners with folding side tables!

The huge problem is the water heater is under the right dinette bench. I would just make that into a cabinet with a table top. But I don't think there is enough width to squeeze recliners in there.

The city water connection plumbing is under the other bench... but I think I could work around that.

Chateau_Nomad,
I can't believe we bought the 27K It had no comfortable seating except for the driver's and passenger's seat. I replaced part of the dinette seating with a seat for a pontoon boat. It's a lot more comfortable than the dinette seat, but still not good to kick back and relax on.

How wide is your space?

Check with Tom above and see what he did.

Can you post a picture of what you did so Metalman can see.

I would only have 52" width for recliners, but 72" for a sofa... which could extend the seat over the hot water tank. Those would be some narrow recliners! I could handle a bench style sofa if it was comfy.
