E-Z option/s -
Replace the couch with something *you* like - whether it's the entire unit - or just the mattress.
Don't use the couch - ever or not very often?
The $20 solution.....
Pack along an air mattress (from Wally, etc.) for the grand-daughter, and let her sleep on the floor.
(No big deal - when most of us were kids, we slept in sleeping bags on the ground outside - or on the floor of a tent, *no* airbag)
The hide-a-bed couch from our 5th sits in the family room at home.
The original recliners long gone & upgraded - table and 4 chairs replaced with drop-leaf table and two much more "user-friendly" chairs. (BTW - 5th is a top-of-the line Jayco)
Only took about 4 months to figure that one out!
Space gained is outstanding!
If ordering a new unit again, would try to order "un-furnished".
