- doxiemom11Explorer IIWe found a memory foam cushion with a gel insert that goes between the layer. You can freeze the insert to help you stay cooler. Can sit on the cushion, or put it behind your back. Really helps, but our Flexsteel seats have lumbar support and 6 way adjustment and are pretty comfortable. I use the memory foam cushion in our Jeep and at the dinette seat for more comfort.
Are you driving too many hours and too many miles? Maybe you just need to slow down a bit, take breaks and smell the roses. - sportechExplorerI've had Flexsteel captain's chairs in 4 coaches and never had a back problem, even on one marathon drive of 750 miles in one loooong day. I can't say that about my cars and trucks from Lincolns to F150's. In our current coach we removed the sofa bed and installed 2 Mac Motion Oslo recliners which are a lot better to watch the 50" popup TV behind the sofa on the opposing slide.

07 Revolution - RLHAMILTONExplorerWe removed our sofa bed a couple years ago, and after several different chairs, settled on two recliners we found in Shipshewana, In. Made by Lambright Comfort Chairs. Best chairs we purchased. Good luck!
- mike_brezExplorerIf you want something that makes into a bed the home stuff doesn't have much to offer.
The only thing I really found was a click clack couch/ bed.
I ended up getting a magic bed from Brad and hall. - rgatijnet1Explorer IIIRather than settle for RV or residential furniture, I made the frame and had an upholstery shop make the cushions for TWO couches in my coach. This gave me storage underneath, utilized every single inch of space, had commercial grade covers made that unzipped to be washed on a regular basis, included cup holders and outlets in the arms, and the total cost was less than a single RV couch.
I did order new Captains seats that were custom made with special foam for comfort. These came from Shop4seats when they were operating under a different name. - corvettekentExplorerWe replaced the sofa bed in our 5th wheel this year. The back will lift off the sofa so you can get it out the door. We bought a home type sofa to replace it.
