In reference to CampinEarls dinette picture above ...

I've been wanting to put in a "door" at the end of the dinette. Anyone do this yet? Has anyone looked to see if the "end cap" can come off for easy access instead of having to go in from the top. A rebuild of the end structure inside for support may be necessary but sure would make things nice to grab a little easy storage that way. Ideas?

I don't know how hard it would be to do, but my KZ has drawers built into the end of each dinette booth. Its very handy.

A guy that I work with does amazing wood work, he said it would be pretty easy to turn the end into a drawer, I'd really like to have it done, because we don't use that space the way it is now. I'd also like to have exterior access to under the bench that is against the wall, I haven't gotten brave enough to do it yet!

This looks like mine also and I know it matches the counters. I've the Godiva interior. Honest when I go to the Premier website to look at pictures all the counters and tables look like they all have the same finish. That would make sense to me as a rv builder, oooops what am I saying!

Well, I've got the Blackberry colour scheme and the tabletop looks exactly the same as the one above. Here's a picture that I took during my walk-through:

I know the lighting is different, but from my own personal experience, both tabletops look the same to me. And again, the pattern matches the counters.

Ok, now I wonder if there could be a possibility that my table is a little bit darker than the other colour scheme. So here's my chance to do a shameless plug and post up a couple more pictures and let the rest of you decide if it's the same [emoticon]

.

I found some other pictures that I took that show the table in different lighting. I can't take a new picture right now because I won't be back to the RV for a couple of weeks.

In this picture (take with a cell phone) you can see the table in the distance in shadow and the counter up close in daylight. They are both the same pattern:

The next picture is with artificial light again:

My Tango had doors on the end and I think the modification would be very easy to do. Rather than remove the "end cap" I would simply cut a whole in the center and then mount a cupboard door there. Depending on how big you cut the hole, you may not need any extra support. That's how it done in the Tango and if I had to "guess-timate" the opening was about 50% of the entire side: i.e. 1/4 of overall material above and a 1/4 of material below the opening. It was just big enough for us to fit a small plastic tub through and that's how we kept things organized under the bench. Larger, bulkier items went through the top.

I need some help guys. As i have posted earlier I have the dinette that is included in the comfort package. If unfolds and sits on 4 "feet". My dinette leans in due to the 2 of the feet sitting on the lower "main" floor while the other 2 feet sit up on the slide floor. Does anyone else have this problem and does anyone have a picture showing this issue? I am talking to Keystone now and they need a picture but I cant get to my trailer for a few more days,
Thank You!!

Thank you so much for steppin up guys. I'm calling Keystone on Monday and really try and straighten this out. ( Adorable pic with the kids too ).

Virtual G, Earls sent me his VIN # which I can have Keystone run. If you privately send me yours please, I can def. settle this once in for all. He has Godiva, you have Blackbery and I have Sage. Oh by the way 23 days before I pick up my Bullet. Yee ha...
