Furniture in the RV

Ok I'm looking at buying a regular love seat to replace the twin recliners that are currently a waste of space. I saw a regular love seat with a console that weighed 100lbs that was pretty cool.
My question is how much does an RV love seat with console weigh? The regular one is about half the cost and has more features.
  • We just replaced our loveseat/couch in our fiver last weekend. Put in a 60" leather loveseat with electric recliners, wall hugger. Had to take the bed portion out of the old couch and the back off of the new loveseat but they both fit through the door, barely. Best upgrade we've done so far.

    The wife didn't care for the short love seat so upgraded to a regular sofa, much better comfort wise. Had to remove the rear window to remove the old and install the new, so 50 1/2" screws later the window was out. Took 3 of us to do it, but was easy.


    That's thinking outside the box!

    Most of the RV furniture I have seen is smaller than regular house furniture... Might want to take that into consideration when looking for replacements...

    There is also another consideration of being able to get the RV furniture in and out of the one RV doorway in most cases... Those are not normal size household doorways as well...

    Didn't think of the doorway width. Will have to do some measuring for sure.

    you might try calling the mfg with the RV's VIN and see if they can tell you. otherwise go weigh the RV, remove the old furniture and then re-weigh.
