Heritage 640 EB 3rd (Dinette) Bed

The Owners Manual says "Always lie on the cushions back face (ticking face)." As the Dinette cushions are irregular in shape they don't fit upside down - do they?

It is a 2008, with rectangular table, cloth upholstery and pull out slats

Suggestions included:

We leave the bottom cushions (the one you sit on) as they are, and the side (back) cushions, the right hand cushion to the right of the table top and the left hand cushion to the left of table top and put a sleeping bag on top.

Our son (a larger than average bear) sleeps on the said area and the cushions only fit face up, it was a bit Rubik's cube but there is a way my wife found that seems to work. If the cushions are turned over they will still be uneven in places.

Is it trimmed in leather? Ours you have to turn to wrong side so you do not sleep on leather. Early versions used the table top turned upside down to create the bed surface. Our 2008 model has a pull out instead to make the platform. We use Raskelf Duvalays these make the bed feel like home.

and finally here's what another owner does (See diagram):

  1. Leave the longest seat cushion where it is for head.
  2. Slide up the shorter seat cushion to meet as middle and pull out a few inches from wall of van for bum.
  3. Centre seat goes to middle at foot end for feet. Could interchange with (4).
  4. Turn back cushion nearest the kitchen flat and place near wall of van for feet.
  5. Shortest back cushion is on outside at foot end but can be left edge upward if desired.

Do you know a better way?
