Cougar lite 26SAB

We love our 2012 26SAB. Sitting here right now at Glacier NP looking at it! I agree with everything stated above. Plan on replacing the matress with a full size queen. The DW and I had backaches after the first night on it earlier this year. I slept better on the sofa bed with the inflatable matress. Enjoy!

The lounge area and entrance door looks identical to our Cougar. If you have kids that plan to sleep in the sofabed, you have to climb over the bed to get in and out the rig. This is a problem when feet/legs are hiding under the covers and you don't want to step on anyone... Our kids keep getting taller, so the problem gets worse... :)

If you do plan to use this sofabed often, pull it out in the dealer lot and make your own decision here.

I have a 2011 26 sab we have put 5000 miles on it so far. 2 months in fla with no problems. I do agree with the bed statement above also you do have to move one chair to close main slide. I replaced the arm chair with Rocker recliners a little more weight but worth it.

Just had a quick look at the photos of the rig and it has a similar layout to our first Cougar with the bed going north/south. We found this a nightmare to try to make the bed. Apart from having to pull the mattress down in order to get the bottom sheet on, once you have a couple of sheets and a blanket or two and then the duvet or bedcover there is very little room for them between the wardrobes and the mattress. We got so frustrated with it that we ended up trading that 5er in for the Cougar 291RLS which has an east/west bed with the bed head in the slide. Much easier to make the bed and room for blankets and duvets between the walls and mattress.
Those armchairs look heavy so keep in mind that one or both of them may have to be moved every time you want to travel and have to put your slide in.
Otherwise the layout of the living area is identical to the 291 and we love it.
Cheers
