We also store a 1/4" piece of plywood under the one dinette seat. Once all the cushions are in place, we lay that across the cushions to "even out" the surface and to keep us from "sinking into" the cracks/voids. We throw a thin blanket over that to protect the air mattress and then put the mattress on top. It does a decent job now. I have back problems and this seem to help me get a good night's sleep.

I have abandoned every photo service site I've tried, as they all eventually came to give me grief, even apart from trying to keep up with various 'upgrades' they kept making. Sorry I can't help you with a link, would like to see your photos.

re: 'air mattress crawl'.....we too had difficulty climbing out from the comfort zone.

It's good to read of the various methods used to adapt to the same problem.

The sofa is comfortable to me when napping on it long-way front to rear of coach, while still folded up.

Unfortunately my Sweet Bride is just a bit too long to fit in the dinette as a solo bed, even angled diagonally. I was looking at moving the front dinette seat back more toward the driver seat area, only needed about 4" to work well...but that was ruled out.

I've used Photobucket for my postings on this thread over the years and had no problem. Make sure your computer is up to the task, because Pbucket is a memory hog.

The best and easiest way to do that has been made possible by one of the Admins, 1492, it is.

thanks for the IMGUR link.

I used pbucket for several years, then suffered several years more misery with updates, glitches, lost time/images, madness and complete lack of response by their 'tech team' despite multiple inquiries.

Got to the point I just don't care to post any of my own photos for a variety of reasons.....but I happily study what others post.

Same here, but it seems like every time I want to use it; they have changed the layout. [emoticon]

Quietjake, we had the same length problem. The challenge on a 213 is that the distance from fridge to bulkhead is 70" and sink to bulkhead is only 68"! So I took out the front backrest to the dinette, and built a new mattress platform to replace the sofa. To gain a couple extra inches we stack the bolsters on the end. Works well. I'll try and get some pix up this weekend.

really appreciate the photos

I tried to print them but the file keep getting jiggy & wouldn't do it.
Is there some way I can download/print the whole set?

You've done a huge job there, that I may well be looking at should my current remedy fail.
