Quick Question for 179 Owners-

I had to sleep on the dinette cushions a couple weeks ago when I took my son and grandson with me.  The cushions of course kept coming apart.  I think I have solved this by using an old twin fitted sheet.  The cushion seem to bow slightly when I put on the sheet but it soon lays flat after laying on it.  I have not camped with it yet but it looks like it will work.

Swapping out the cushions for an IKEA jackknife sofa (a.k.a. futon) was the best decision we've made with our 179. It's much more comfortable as a couch and as a bed.

We don’t even use it as a bed, set it up once when we first got the 179 , didn’t even look comfortable.

Drop the table remove the corner cushions, use the back cushion and the long skinny cushion that has no real use to fill the remaining gap. Quick and easy but keeping the cushions in place is another story. I suggest a extension strap for the strap use to secure the table while traveling. We have only tried using the dinette as a bed once with poor results if we were going to use it often I would purchase a twin size inflatable mattress like an Aerobed.
