More RV Renovation! Awesome New RecPro Motorhome Captain's Chairs

Рет қаралды 37,159

Күн бұрын

Installing replacement captain's chairs in our motorhome was super easy (after figuring out the trick) RV renovation and they make a HUGE difference in our home on wheels. Our old chairs were peeling and a bit ugly in some places so we're really loving these RecPro chairs. Come along with us as we wrestle with stripped bolts while getting loved on by the dog and distracted by curious children! 😂

Thanks Tom! I really thought they were just lag bolts or machine screws down into a panel of some sort. I've been under there a few times but I never looked up in that area. The most frustrating part is we didn't have to do that at all in the first place! Oh well 😂

We always donate household furniture when upgrading it, but these pieces from RVs aren't useful anywhere else. At least we didn't have to cut these into smaller pieces so they'd fit out the door like we did with the couch! 😂

They are currently unavailable and after speaking to them, they don't know when they'll have more. Sad for us. We did purchase their 58" powered double recliner in birch and love it. Thanks again for sharing and happy trails.

@Five2Go 3 жыл бұрын

Fleetwood are actually very well-made RVs. RevGroup got a bad batch of fabric back in 2015 and a bunch of their RVs were affected by it across several brands that they build. Bonus for us though, the new chairs and couch are WAY more comfortable!

We had a couch in a travel trailer that peeled like that and it was a mess.

@Five2Go 3 жыл бұрын

The couch we took out was a nightmare - there were pieces everywhere. Unfortunately the back cushions from the dinette are doing the same thing. RecPro sells their fabric by the yard so we may have to find a local place to reupholster those.

@paulacartwrightjohnson8479 3 жыл бұрын

Our dinette did the same thing and yes it was a mess. If you y’all are near Green Cove Springs, Florida there is a place on Hyw. 17 South that does upholstery and also you could stay at our place we have 50amp plug and water. Also we are on a farm so animals for the kids to see.
