   Greetings!  We picked up our new 2017 R Pod model #179 yesterday!  So we are babies here.  I have one concern though right off the bat.  The cushions for the dining area (the removal cushions that when removed reveal the storage) are not comfortable.  I was going to take them to an upholstering company to have them restuffed with a firmer substance.  Anybody have this issue?  They seem to squish down when you sit on them?  Sally Blue

	Over the years that we have had our 178, we have replaced all of the cushions (foam) from The Foam Factory. Good stuff (so to speak)! fred

	It appears you are correct on your diagnosis. I believe they have cheapened them over the years. Our 2011 cushions have more 'body' to them then the newer pods cushions.

	We also have a 2017 r-pod 179. One Cushion is much firmer than the other. It is definitely a defect in the manufacturing. Also, our first use the door fronts fell of two storage areas.
