- usmcshepherdExplorer IIWe sure like the whole camper...we ordered ours with two solar panels and deleted the oven for the combo microwave/convection in order to pickup more cabinet room.
- idaho_camperExplorerThat is a GREAT feature!
- usmcshepherdExplorer IIThat's correct...it normally looks like the couch in the first picture you posted...it does still have the reclining capability and the couch transforms into the bed like a regular jack-knife type couch.
- idaho_camperExplorerGreat pic of your kids. And of the couch, too. Thanks very much for posting.
To clarify, your couch has the leg recliner function and it also swivels into the bed as shown in your pictures? - usmcshepherdExplorer IIIdaho_camper....here are a couple pics of the couch on the 2016 Lance 1172 down...one with kids and one without. My daughter is 8 and is about 4'8" and as you can see she has plenty of room even being curled up with her 6 year old brother.
- Gary3ExplorerI went to the Tampa rv show yesterday and sat on that couch I found it uncomfortable
- usmcshepherdExplorer IIIdaho_camper....I should be able to do that in the next day or two as we are getting the rig out to go up into the mountains this weekend! Will post pics as soon as we get back to a connection! We have the new 2016 1172 and love it...we upgraded from our 2013 this year and couldn't be more happy! The improvements in just three years made it worth it for us.
- idaho_camperExplorerGood info. Thank you, sir! Would appreciate the pics if you can locate any.
- usmcshepherdExplorer IIThe original 1172's only had the recliner function, but the newer 2016's and perhaps the 2015s had a jack-knife couch as well. The couch is in fact short but does make a nice size bed for a child or for reading on. I'm 6'4" and if I lay at an angle I can stretch out on it and read or watch movies...haven't slept the whole night on it but my 8 year old certainly has on occassion. If I can find a picture of the couch down flat I'll upload for you to see.
- idaho_camperExplorerThe couch can't be but 4 or MAYBE 5 feet wide. I suppose something like that would fit a 5 year old or so. Otherwise, it would be kinda pointless.
