reclining love seat recommendations

My current jack knife sofa stinks in my 2008 Jayfeather and I need help. the current space is 60" wide so naturally we can't put what ever we want there. My question is, where could I find affordable options? We want a reclining loves seat.

thanks

This is a link to a set of recliners I put in a couple of years ago. Best upgrade I have ever made. I don't know if they are still available of the $$, but do a lot of searching. Oh they fit perfectly in a 60" space.

Did the same thing on my 2016 23RLSW. Went to quite a few local furniture stores before finding what I needed. My space was limited also.

TxTwoSome, glad to hear you got the conversion done. Did you put in a EMS system and convert the power cord?

Glad to help in any way.

The term, SOFA, used by Jayco in these campers, is playing with words.

Curious what you found as to how couch was fastened in place for removal? At quick glance of mine I'm not seeing what's holding it in place, no obvious screws or brackets visible.

Visit Lazyboy. Tell them your restrictions and what your budget is. You may find several to choose from. And yes the backs come off for easy install for RVs.

I think it depends on the floorplan and what type of sofa is in there.

Mine is a 2016 23RLSW. The couch was screwed into the floor at the sides if I remember correctly. Very cheap POS.

The power cord storage box was under it so I had to modify it by installing a detachable power cord to get rid of the box.

I also added a hard wired PI energy management system behind the new loveseat recliner.
Fastened it to the floor with metal brackets attached to the frame of the loveseat.
