I looked at the floor plan of the LRSS and one thing you should be aware of, the television is a good distance from the chairs at the back window. And anyone sitting at the dinette, only one side can view the television. And the person sitting in the chair next the door, has to look over the sink to see the television. In other words, their view will be blocked. Maybe you won't spend time watching television, but if you do, you'll also find the dinette to be very uncomfortable, unless you put it down into bed position and can recline on it. But then, you might not be able to really stretch out either. (Just an observation).
And, the entry door is right beside the chair at the back window. I think in time, you'll not like to sit in that chair at all. If you put up a TV tray (table) at that spot it will be in the way of the door too, or a small end table, or anything.
Just another observation.
And the small couch? To see the television, any one sitting there will to crook their neck far left. This will get VERY old, very tiring, very fast.
Consider looking at a floor plan that has the television directly across from the couch area and a couch that's comfortable enough, you can recline in it and not have to hold your head up... which is very tiring on your neck. Just one more observation.
Just to point out how we all like something different...we sold our former trailer and bought this exact floor plan. You have great views out the back window when you back up to a view. You have two comfortable chairs in a small layout with a nice TV view. We don't find ourselves too far from the TV at all. You have far more natural light in the trailer. These are all important to us so we have no regrets. I lay on the couch and watch TV all the time by proping my head up on two pillows against the end...my feet hand over the othe end but it is strangely comfortable. There are only two of us so TV viewing or visiting with friends is no problem. Buy the plan you like. We used to fulltime with a fiver that had the same plan, all be it bigger, and we couldn't stand the closed in feelings of other trailer plans.
