Shadow,
Hi, Could you please post picture of the underside of your table? We are getting the 179, but I really prefer a booth-type dinette, and trying to figure out how we are going to make the 179 dinette work for us...
Thanks in advance!

Hi
we bought our 179 in August.  
1. We don't have much to hang in the wardrobe so wanted to make shelves.  We happened upon some very light school locker shelves at Walmart.   They fitted exactly and 2 rubber made containers (without lids) fit under for easy instant drawers for t-shirts and jeans etc.  
2.  We also used more shelves in the pantry cupboards for more storage space.  
3.  We also  put 3 inch memory foam on the mattress for more comfort.  
4.  I moved the table legs 6 inched toward one end.  It allows one of us to sit comfortable at the end, or to put the table in sideways to give floorspace for the dog bed at night.

More to come and hopefully I can post pictures later.

Thx Luv2Q....the hubby said I could have flowers on the curtains as long as I slipped in some masculine stripes somewhere.  Good compromise.

LePodders,
We may have copied y'all, we got the idea from this forum.  We saw the table mod photos on this forum and thought, "Hey, that's what  need."  Husband is 6'3' and was having a hard time fitting under the table.  This great table mod gives us more much-needed room.
 
So, if it was your pics we saw...thanks!!

I'd like to get my cushions done also. Hey, your table looks just like mine! We did that also, was one of our first mods, and made such a big difference

We did not do the cushions...I only made the curtains.  We bought home upholstery fabric at Joanne's and had it done professionally...$250..for all four cushions.
