So...what are the opinions of one arrangement over the other? I can see if you really need the extra sleeping capacity of both dinette and couch convertible beds. Are there other reasons one would be preferable over the other?I'm looking at a model that has a large dinette with two removable dinette tables. Seems like a nice layout since you can effectively have one giant couch,one dinette table and a couch or two dinette tables.What is your experience?Also... What about resale. Are these extra large dinettes a curse when it comes to selling?Thanks, Dean

I personally do not like a dinette at all I do like a couch with a table in front of it but this is just my preference.

Having a really large couch to sit on sounds really good until you actually sit on it for a while. Not very comfortable. (I assume you are talking about the really long sofa with two removable tables)

Yes. I guess it would be considered a large, long couch with two tables.Do you currently have,or have you had one of these layouts? What is uncomfortable about them?I honestly don't know as I've only looked at the more conventional separate sofa/dinette models.

I've never sat in a long couch but have sat in many booth dinettes and have yet to find one (except for the Lance) that doesn't sink to the bottom after 20-30 mins. I prefer a free standing dinette and couch. I'm guessing the long couch would be more comfortable than any dinette.

I'd like my next TT to have that style, like this:
