Hi Mark,
Our Seneca FS is on order with the theater seating as one of our options. We opted for this seating 1) don't need the extra bed space; 2) we like the idea of dual recliners with a center console to watch TV and 3) the grand kids can relax and have separated space (the console) and be belted-in watching TV while we are on the move. Granted, the couch also offers seat belts, but no space separation for the grand kids. And we know they like their space
There will be 600 mile days with early departures (6 AM). We will not let them sleep in the bunk beds while we are moving, so with the theater seating they can recline, belt-up, and go back to sleep. Not optimal (like sitting at the dinette belted-in, but at least they will have a seat belt on.
Just thought I would share our thoughts.
Good luck!
