The kitchen

Regarding tables for the 179, we picked up this table from our local Walmart. It's 10" longer than the Amazon one (20" x 40") but still folds up very compactly.

I want to thank everyone for their input on this and after careful reflection and discussion, we have decided to go with the 179.

Pick it up on the 19th.

Thanks again.


PS - The table from Amazon looks exactly like one we picked up from Costco.

Congratulations! I hope you enjoy your 179 as much as we are enjoying ours.

Hi John,
First, Congratulations on your purchase - look forward to years of enjoyment !
- I checked my iPhone archive, no pictures, sorry
- As we live in the frozen North (Canada), our Pod is now in winter storage
- I searched Costco.ca for 'serving tray' & found more expensive examples.
It is a solid black rectangular tray with 4 equal height sides and a knife & fork pattern (from memory).
Was on sale for $10 or less at that time.
BTW I also bought 4 thin flexible cutting mats for different foodstuffs in Costco that fit the tray nicely
Hope this helps !

Just curious what material you used to replace the foam inside the cushions?

We picked the 180 for two reasons. First the full bath is a plus over the small bath in 179 for us. We use the campground showers if they are available. The second reason was sitting at the dinette you feel a bit more room and can look out both sides. The down side is less storage room. We haven't had a problem yet with storage. Whatever you pick you will love it. I know we do.
