Laundry chutes? So that is what those things are for! Ha. I do like the setup of the camper. This one is a bunk house with 2nd slides. The previous owner pulled out the jack knife sofa and the top bunk and built a framed twin bed in it's place. It eliminated the space for the outside storage access. I an taking it back to original with a slight modification on the top bunk to fold it down against the wall instead of up. It should fit behind the top edge of the sofa. This will allow us to still see out the side window when the bunk isn't in use.
