I've also noticed the aching back while in the Bigfoot Dinette but didn't think about it much until this thread. I think the issue is mostly to do with lack of lumbar support perhaps? I often find myself sitting with my feet up on the other side of the dinette.
If one was to rip out the dinette, you would have to move either the furnace or the hot water heater or both. There is a decent amount of space there if one was just one person to think about but I cannot see how one would be able to put two nice recliner type chairs in that space though.
If the cushions are the main issue, what about just having some custom cushions made that provide some additional lumbar support?
As far as the converting to a bed, I'm one of the few that actually does need that for our girls. They have grown up enough though that they can no longer fit together so we created a bunk bed out of aluminum tubular railing It comes apart with an alan wrench in a few minutes and stores in the basement when not needed. Overall it works but I wish I had the built in bunk that I believe was an option.
