On the 2016's and newer the table storage is in the closet because the jacknife won't lay flat with the tables there.

In 2016 Thor got rid of all the air mattresses: The sofa became a jacknife and the drop down bunk added some depth so that a small (normal) mattress could stay up there (they added like 2" or 3").
Jamie...our Oct.2015 build of 2016 model, stores the tables/legs behind the sofa.
I believe the 2017 changed the storage area for those.
Ya know Doc changed out his sofa for 2 recliners.
For us, the couch being a hide-a-bed is no issue, since we have the overhead bed if the kids want to come along with us (they are all the age where that isn't going to happen in all probability !)
So, we are back to the reason we all choose what works best for us !
The 24.1 is perfect for us. We, occasionally, use the tables as we have a nifty folding table we put in front of the couch. When we entertain, we bring out the tables and turn the front seats around. (in poor weather)
We like being outdoors most of the time, and use the awning/outside TV for watching games and have a clip on fan which we attach to the TV door to move the air when there is no breeze.
So, the subject is mostly sleeping arrangements.

My 2 cents worth....again !! ha !
