I read somewhere that Jayco is changing the Jacknife sofa to sleeper sofas. Can't hurt to call them and see if this is true or not.

Replacement sofa

In the 50 year catalog of Camping World has three pages on Thomas Payne collection of sofa, that appear to be what am looking for , jus have to do my home work on installation to make sure I have wall clearance , because of the window valance from floor to bottom is 31" so I have to determine if will sit out far enough to allow to recline wish me luck

We carry a storage ottoman. Works really well. We store it in the bathroom when underway.

I also looked to replace the jack knife sofa in my Greyhawk. What I found was the window behind the sofa is low. The sofas or recliners we looked at would block the air from the window. There isn't much ventilation in the living area as it is so we decided to get folding Ottomans instead. We bought them online at Kohl's. They were inexpensive and fold up pretty flat. Not a bad solution.

"Glastop RV furniture" sells loveseats that are 54 to 58 inches wide. Made in Pompano Beach Florida. Lots of fabrics and colors available. We use our fantastic fan to draw ventilation in through the windows

Just started looking for a replacement too. Sofa in our '15 31FS looks great, but is very uncomfortable. I have climbed around new MH's and 5'ers, so I know there is much better out there. But will they fit? Looking for a dual reclining sofa, but don't know if we have the depth. Guess I have to make a trip to the barn for some measurements!

Just ordered this one a couple of days ago. Ran across it at the spring MH show. It's a trifold as opposed to a jackknife sofa. That's a Jayco part number that you can use to order direct from Jayco.

I took mine out and replaced it with two lazy boy recliners when parked I take seat belts off that I have on them to hold them in place and I can move them anywhere in the coach comfortable to watch tv and they are wall huggers and do not block windows for air flow

We just ordered a wall hugger recliner sofa from glastop. I found a guy online with a Redhawk who had done it. There is a bit of give and take with the back height but I wanted a recliner regardless.
