Rick and Michele Posted January 27, 2021 Report Share Posted January 27, 2021 Has anyone changed out the sofa sleeper with recliners. On our 311FS the slide floor edge to wall is 32.5" and we are looking for some good suggestions for recliners. We were looking at the Thomas Payne Euro Recliner but it looks like we do not have enough slide floor.

Big5er Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 My Thomas Payne junk lasted 2 years. I've ordered Lambright as a replacement.

rickeieio Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 We ditched the sleeper sofa and put in Lambright recliners about 4 years ago. No compaints. I just measured, and we have about 35" from wall to front edge of chair when upright. I will say, I'm impressed with how these have held up. We're not full timers, but then, I'm not a small boy.

Jinx & Wayne Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 Another vote for Lambright. I'm sitting in one right now. Here is the RV catalog.

Second Chance Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 We have two Ekornes Stressless recliners where our sleeper sofa used to be. They were designed by a chiropractor and are the only chairs my back can tolerate.

sandsys Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 We had Ekornes Stressless recliners in our house before we went full time. We bought that brand because they had one line that came in sizes so there was one that fit Dave at 6'2" and one that fit me at 5'4" with the same design for both. I wish we hadn't sold them when we sold nearly everything else.

Mr. Camper Posted January 28, 2021 Report Share Posted January 28, 2021 We pulled out the sofa in the back of the TT and installed a special chair and a table for me. Mrs. Campers recliner was in one of the slide areas and along with a table and the two dog beds they have a lot more room. For reasons of my own the chair was purchased for medical reasons and since it came in two parts, was very easy to fit through the door and we added locking wheels on the base to slide it around when we close up and are on the move. Standard recliners would have worked but we never considered looking for one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2gypsies Posted February 2, 2021 Report Share Posted February 2, 2021 You might want to look at LazyBoy as they carry wall huggers so you don't need a lot of space. They always have sales.

MJM Posted April 29, 2022 Report Share Posted April 29, 2022 We recovered our sleeper sofa and now can't remember how to attach the back cushions. I think the reupholster guy might have covered up the holes we need to re-attach them. We have a 2010 Coachman Concord Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
