Bunk Bed Curtains - The Horror The Horror

Our 2019 Georgetown came with two bunk beds and the curtains seem to have been designed to be in a Russian brothel! They are so horrible I won't post a photo because my camera refused to take a picture! The matching bed spread is now in a happy place - the land dump.

Has anyone had experience changing curtains considering the way FR designed the curtain runner/hanger?

The bedspread that came on our GT5 looks like that. We like it because we put it on the bed when it goes in for service or during the day when the dog lies on it. We don't really care if it gets trashed.

There also were matching pillow cases and some kind of long round tube thing using that fabric.

Why are you insulting Russian brothels? Maybe they came one from a few hundred years ago.

Holy cow that's some ugly fabric! Did it warp the lens on your camera? That's definitely in there with some of the ugliest I've ever seen! I don't blame you for ditching that stuff although it probably won't even disintegrate in the landfill!!

Sorry I don't have any suggestions on replacements, but had to comment on how truly horrifying that material is!

He is a Marine. He could probably write a Michelin guide on brothels.

I have absolutely no idea about Russian brothels due to blackmailing by Russian entities. However photos provided by contacts confirm the lack of such material.

I deny, deny, deny.

As a Marine I can testify that Nevada has legal brothels and a recent quality survey indicated no similar materials were observed.

However San Juan Puerto Rico may have but my memory is blurred from the past. Our artillery regiment was released into Old San Juan many years ago with 2 months in back pay in cash for 3 days of R&R. 1,500 screaming Marines with cash in hand had a very 'unique' experience needless to say.

Semper Fi!

We replaced the bunk window curtains and the privacy curtains with Ikea tracks and shuttles that run inside the tracks, much better. We also ran one in the "hallway" if you can call it that to create privacy between the front of the coach and the bunk area.

Most welcome. Noticed your avatar - used to race TT, flat track, motocross and enduros.

Then as I got older it hurt more to fall, much less getting up and the right hand started pulling the brake too often going into the first turn.

Had to trade in for a wife and kids. Poor choice.
