Replace Uncomfortable RV Sofa or Dinette with Recliners | Class C RV Renovation | RV with Tito

[@NoName-nb9qi]

One thing I admire about you Tito is that you always use the word "We" I always do that too, make sure my wife knows we're doing this together even if she's only watching me build it

[@RVwithTito]

We thank you for your kind words.

[@dontask8979]

I couldn't agree more. I have noticed that too. I sometimes think it is only "we" kinda people even notice.

[@RVHabit]

Hi Brian, You described having recliners in the RV exactly right, "A game changer". I wouldn't be without them. You will soon say how did we stay in the RV without them. Your a DIY'er after my own heart. You pay attention to detail. I even noticed you twisted the wire before putting on the wire nuts---Bravo. Stay safe, Lou

[@RVwithTito]

Thanks Lou. Yeah Melissa sat it them after I had them installed and just said.....Aaaahhh!

[@wilkiepup1]

Recliners are where it’s at. I’m typing as I sit in my recliner. Keeping the legs up is good too. Those are beautiful. Good purchase.

[@HighCountryRambler]

I swapped out the single swivel chair with a Rec Pro swivel recliner. Love the chair but first long trip it de-assembled itself as 6 screws fell out going down the road. I'll use some lock-tite and hopefully prevent further issues. Still planning on the recliner swap out, just need more lock-tite.... Interesting how you take a RV and make it what you want. I've told RV salesmen over the years, it's obvious RV designers aren't into RV camping.

[@paulboyer6797]

Saw recliners at STL RV show last weekend then your video. Ordered pmod-70 tuesday. Arrived friday. Install in progress. Replacing jack knife couch in 2011 coachmen freelander 32 bh. Love and trust your posts.thx

[@RVwithTito]

That sounds great Paul. I sat in some Thomas Payne recliners at last year's RV show. I didn't get those, but it got me thinking...hmmm...recliners. So far my RecPro experience has been great. I appreciate your feedback and kind words. It means alot. Thx.

[@karenebarker9244]

We bought the same recliners for our Class C except non electric and in Toffee color. Ours were replacing a jackkife sofa that was incredibly uncomfortable. Our slide was not as deep as yours so we had to build it out to accept the chairs. My husband did an awesome job. It looks original. We used electrical conduit wall clamps on the front and back bars over a piece of 1" pipe to attach our recliners to the floor. We greatly enjoy your channel and look forward to your drama free videos and laidback attitude. We also plan to keep our 5 year old RV for many years.

[@RVwithTito]

Hope you're enjoying your recliners. We're looking forward to many years of comfort with these. I also picked up a couple 2" conduit clamps that I'll put over the back frame once I'm done tweaking things. Cheers!

[@EmilyBrantley-p1x]

I’m in the middle of doing my class c and I’m having an issue secure it to the slide out. How did yall secure it

[@karenebarker9244]

@@EmilyBrantley-p1x we put pipe clamps over the bars under chairs and screwed them down

[@RVwithTito]

(Update) Bolting the Recliners Down: I secured them to the floor with a couple 2" electrical conduit clamps on the rear frame. There are a couple holes in the frame where I could bolt them to the floor, but I like the clamp on solution better.

[@kattynj8338]

You can always use muffler clamps through a floor with flat stock... Lighting if you need some you can locate less from me or build custom plexy glass is awesome with leds. Simple and quick you can take vinyls and wrap some pain some install different bulbs. The only difference between DIY and profeccional Custom is I get paid by the customer

[@mikefredericks7288]

I had a feeling....I figured that to be the case. Once again...great video! I'm looking to do something similar, however I have an older class c without a slide and all my electrical and plumbing is located under one seat, and the fresh water tank is under the other one.

[@kattynj8338]

@@mikefredericks7288 , Do you have the ability to rout plumbing differently

[@HighCountryRambler]

Thanks for the video and tip on source for the sofa, I'm getting ready to tackle the same. On the lighting, my class-C has a 12 vdc sconce lamps on the back wall, one on each side of the window, which will be above the back of the sofa. Perfect for reading or anything. It also has a 120 vac outlet on the same back wall so that part is also done. Thanks

[@HighCountryRambler]

Forgot to add a question. Since my crappy dinette is the only other bed beside bedroom, when I lose that my son is out of luck when he's with us. In your opinion when you have them reclined all the way out are they suitable/intended as sleeping positions? I went to the site and found jackknife and pull-outs, but neither recline, that's kind of a buzz killer. Thanks again.

[@chkham]

Your videos are so well done! This led my wife and I to purchase the same model. Love them! Installed in 10 minutes. Debating on to secure. Thing maybe Velcro- or just electrical hold downs. Thanks again

[@RVwithTito]

The hold downs also help it from rocking when you get up. So I recommend something more than Velcro.

[@cynthiagriffith9642]

I want to do this too but I'm concerned about covering our dining room window. It looks like you had/have a window too. Did the chairs cover your window?

[@RVwithTito]

The overlapped the bottom edge of the window by a couple inches or so...enough to keep the roller shades from moving. We don't have that RV anymore so I don't have exact measurements. The website should state the height dimensions.

[@jimdavis8804]

Great vid as usual. We changed the recliners couch in our new Crossroad cruiser. They were impossible to operate and weighed a ton. We upgraded to a lighter model and easier to use. We will be getting tied of the dinette set next. It’s heavy and not easy to use.

[@RVwithTito]

Change is good!

[@robdalton2]

Happy you both like them!! I look forward to seeing what you come up with as an end console

[@RVwithTito]

Me too :) It's a pretty narrow space.

[@scottsmith7348]

Hi Tito. I bought a manual loveseat from RecPro about 6 years ago. It is extremely comfortable BUT the material and stitching is falling apart. We only camp about 6 months out of the year on weekends and don't use the loveseat much. I thought it was a little pricy when I bought it but I disliked the loveseat that came with our 2018 Travel Trailer. I hope you have better luck with durability

[@edwardbroomfield2291]

Really enjoy your informative videos, I was wondering if you mounted the chair to the floor. If so how did you do it. I will definitely need to mount it to the slide because of the overhang.

[@rickvinyardable]

Funny wife and i talked about taking couch out and doing that , she said you cant do that i showed her your video , thanks.

[@RVwithTito]

Lol. Never say can't :) Challenge accepted.

[@Count_Smackula]

Excellent work! Super 77 is good stuff. I used to use it all the time when doing headliners on old Beetles. Good adhesion, but still repositionable as wrinkles needed "adjusting".

[@RVwithTito]

Agreed. It comes in pretty handy for a lot of things.

[@timf6916]

Cool mod, nice video. Nice to see that your wife help with the color

[@RVwithTito]

On some things, it's better to get her input before rather than after if you get my gist ;)

[@timf6916]

Hehehehe YES

[@Steve-ps6qw]

Those are some nice seats! better than what we have stock.....and one of ours seems to have broke, not sure what is wrong but it is stuck in the extended position. It might be a good reason to get something more plush, like those! Thanks!

[@nonrevhogan8938]

Man those are going to be soooo nice when traveling. The remodeling is going great! Sweet upgrade..

[@RVwithTito]

We're really looking forward the maiden voyage after the updates are done.

[@twylabowman3489]

QUESTION… PLEASE HELP… My fuse box is currently located under my jack knife sofa. I’d love to get recliners. Do you think there is enough room under the recliner to leave the fuse box under it? I have a class C much like this one. Thanks!

[@RVwithTito]

Hard to say. There are a lot of moving parts underneath. If you can reposition the fuse box you might find a spot that works, but it's doubtful because it needs to be in a spot where you can access it. Hmmm

[@ChrisDIYerOklahoma]

Nice work! I think as we age, our comfort level increases.

[@RVwithTito]

Yes. We wanted something we could fall asleep in. These fit the bill.

[@Schwartzworld]

Excellent job so far. I got my reading lights from a boat supply store. They have all kinds of map and bunk lights. After you find what you like at a marine store, check Amazon and EBay for them, might save some money on them.

[@RVwithTito]

Thanks for suggestion. I do the same. I've got a West Marine close by too.

[@decaturbob2k]

My worthless jack-knife loveseat met its demise last summer. I ripped it out and replaced with with 2 euro-style recliners I got from RecPro. I ordered the recliners at 6am on a Monday morning and the Fedex van showed up Tuesday afternoon at 3pm. Could not believe the service and how well the recliners are working out for us. My regret not doing this 3 years ago.

[@RVwithTito]

That's awesome. My recliners came pretty quick too. Glad your loving yours.

[@mikkistudley2373]

I tried to look through the comments so I'm sorry if this is a repeat question, but didn't see if you put the width of your door? It looked like it was fairly tight going through the door. Great post showing the option of adding outlets for the power version. Thank you.

[@doncoons6761]

Question, how did you anchor the seats to the floor?

[@gretchenv4647]

Beautiful work 👍 Thanks for all your wonderful ideas, Very Helpful to many of us out here 🤗

[@GaryBoyd02]

Nice mod Brian! Dinettes are often a huge waste of space with poor back support. TV table does the trick for the 10 or 15 minutes hat you eat!

[@RVwithTito]

Totally agree. It served us adequately through the years as long as we added pillows for better support.

[@RollinRagu]

That looks great! A few years ago we had removed a dinette in our travel trailer and put in a reclining loveseat. I was very nice to be in the trailer and still as comfortable as home! Hope you enjoy!

did you have to use primer over your wallpaper

[@RVwithTito]

I'm sure we will too

[@thomasmoseley6955]

We installed the RecPro recliners 2 years ago. The material is already starting to split on the back of one chair. RecPro would not stand behind their product but wanted to sell us a replacement back for $150. We declined that figuring that that one would probably do the same after awhile. Instead, we are having covers made for the backs at a local upholstery shop with color coordinated durable material. I suggest anyone using RecPro products keep an eye out for splitting fabric and contact RecPro before the warranty is up.

[@JaredGillis]

Looks really good! I can’t wait to put in our couch it’s been sitting in the garage for the last couple weeks. You motivated me to get it done before the Super bowl.

[@RVwithTito]

Haha. Get busy Jared :) I've had those big boxes in my garage for the last couple months. I'm glad to have the space back.

[@PaddyWagonTravels]

Very nice upgrade and definitely will increase comfort in the RV - well said! I look forward to doing something like this in my Class C in the future. Thanks for sharing.

[@loveu2222]

Came out very well,put led light (table light) those lights very cool shape and lots of color variety maybe I missed your earlier videos,my question: how you eat without dining table , what do you have across the chairs?

[@RVwithTito]

I'm also building a desk/table/tv-stand on the other side. I'll also create a little clip on table so we can also eat from the recliners. TBD.

[@twdenman1]

I didn’t see you screw/bolt down chairs. Not necessary? Did you pull electric from another outlet? 60” wide space? Lastly, would you use Recpro seating again?

[@superkunk2]

How do you fasten the recliners down to the slide out so they don’t bounce around when you’re driving.

[@RVwithTito]

I used a metal conduit clamp underneath on the rear part of the frame. It also helps when you sit up, so it doesn't rock forward. Good luck.

[@supertiger72]

What about securing then to the floor. They don't move when driving?

[@bigjim11566]

Taking our dinnete out for theatre seating also, ty for good info

[@luckettg]

I may have messed up not ordering the powered version. I forgot you were using that type. I expect to remove the couch and install ours, early next week. I was under the impression that they would need to be fastened down to the floor but, unless I missed it, yours simply sits on the floor without being fastened to the floor? Thanks for all your wonderful videos and advice too. Good job!

[@RVwithTito]

I did eventually fasten them to the floor. So they're nice and sturdy.

I don't use seat belts. Personal choice. Never used them in the dinette either in 13 years.

How did you attach the couch? What trim did you use for the bottom corner of the slide near the floor?

[@Mth308]

By chance did you put the dinette slide in without the carpet on the floor between the dinette and the couch? I want to remove that carpet and put in vinyl plank but not sure if the slide out needs the carpet to slide on. I have the exact same motorhome and any help is appreciated. Thanks Matt

this is great info and thanks for doing this, Do you know the depth of your slide from the inside wall to the end of the slide? Mine is only 33" and RecPro's website states 36" is required. I am OK if I have to push it up against the wall when the slide is not extended and I would pull the recliners out when the slide is extended, I have to make sure the frame will fit on the slide when the recliners are pushed back to the wall, thus the reason for my question

[@davidlegge8303]

I've been looking forward to this video because I intend to install the 67" version of these recliners in my rig once it warms up outside. Originally, I was considering the manual version but the powered version is pretty sweet. I noticed they are 120v AC, is there a manual override in case you are boondocking and don't want to power up an inverter just to recline? It looked like you plugged in a DC transformer for each base so they are actually DC motors. I wonder if they make a DC hardware option?

[@RVwithTito]

I don't think there's a manual override or DC option (from RecPro). I run my inverter most of the time, so no problem for me. The motor runs on 24 volt so I plan on installing a 12-24v step-up converter like this (amzn.to/2CQwjep) so I can power it from my batteries. I'll be sure to post something if/when I get that working.

[@puzzlme2]

You can also buy rechargeable battery packs for recliners. They are easy to install, just attach inline with existing cords. They can hold a charge for up to a week or so with moderate use but could recharge every time you plug in or from an inverter while you are parked. This is what I ordered. www.amazon.ca/gp/product/B07G91FMLQ/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Do they make a larger set of these I would like to replace my L shaped sofa

The have several pieces of furniture components on their website that you can piece together.

hey brian where is your black and grey tank clean video???

[@dontask8979]

Looks great. That does that setup weigh ?

[@RVwithTito]

The RecPro site says 197 lbs. They didn't seem that heavy, but I had them in pieces. I'm actually planning on getting rid of my 4K generator (located below the slide), so that should free up 300+ pounds. The couch I took out was actually pretty heavy too.

@@RVwithTito It is looking good! Thank you for the info!

Hi Brian. Been watching your videos and have seen the great work you’ve done. Really cool. We’ve been looking at the same RecPro recliners. Just wondering how they’ve been holding up for you? Thanks. We’ve subscribed to your site and look forward to more videos. Thanks again, John & Vickie.

Hey guys. They're doing great. Check out my new video coming out in a couple hours. I'll show you how they're doing.

Hi Brian, I use a word I made up, getupability. Our Montana High Country has seats that lack getupablity. How is getting up from those seats?

[@RVwithTito]

Getupability rating is pretty good. Since they sit on the slide out it's adding another 3 inches or so off the floor. So standing right up and out is pretty smooth.

@@RVwithTito I currently have to push myself up from behind and I'm not alone. I have seen other in my camper do the same. When reclined mine are pretty comfortable. I would hate to order a new one and have that problem. Your input is very helpful

[@gbressler]

Hi, It's tine to replace my theater seating in my Montana High Country. I would really appreciate an update on your RecPro seats. Comfort, durability and most importantly getupability. Thanks, Gary

Update! We have had our RecPro recliners for well over a year now and we are full time so they get a lot of use. As far as "getupability I would rate them fair. The fabric is s very good quality. Our problem is they have gotten a little soft on the bottom cushion which allows us to feel a bar from the back cushion, it's pretty uncomfortable. After talking to RecPro customer service and coordinating a shipping address they have replaced them both. I can't ask for better customer. service.
