Replacing dinette with recliner

I am a new Solera owner, 2015 24S, and new to motorhomes in general (recently came off the road after 4 years fulltiming in a 40’ fifth wheel). I’m considering removing the dinette and putting in an oversized chair or loveseat. My concern is the weight of the chair because it would be in the slide. Anyone have any ideas about this?

Also: can someone tell me where the low point drain is? Thanks in advance!

I think that several owners have replaced the dinette with a pair of recliners - I think Forest River offered (still offers?) this as an option. You should be able to find more details if you poke through this thread and the MBS thread (the MBS thread covers all of the FR products based on the Sprinter chassis...)

I'm not absolutely sure, but I think your low point drains will be on the passenger side, just behind the main entry door, below the kitchen sink.

Good luck with your Solera!

Thanks, Dave. I found the MBS site and have posted on there as well. Also found several posts there on the low point drain(s) location. Deanna

I have a leather couch I’m replacing with a dinette out of my Solera S. Selling for 450.00
