We just picked up a Discovery and need to get some new couches for it. The love seat (passanger side) is just a couch out of someones house (1990 style) and the driverside is the original Jack knife that has some wear in it so we are just thinking about replacing them both at the same time. Where is the best, inexpesive place to find good quality jack-knife couches? What are places to stay away from? Found some new flex steel couches on EBay for $175 (plus $100 shipping). But am not a fan of the fabric selection he has. Where have you guys been getting them?

Mods - Not sure if this is the best forum for it, if you think it will get better visibility somewhere else feel free to move this.

Have you considered getting a total reupholstering job at a local goodwill service center? We had a our first MH completely redone inside back in 1989 in Lawton, OK the guy was totally blind but his work was fabulous! He fitted us in between doing a leather interior on a MG Midget. They can do new foam, hardware everything. Just a thought.

Look at visonerv.com When you get to the site click on Used rv parts and repair, then click on RV furniture for sale. They have some leather flexsteel stuff that looks pretty nice. I have no idea what the price is, but you never know... They are located in KY. Good luck, Sonny Jim

We just had a new Jack-knife-couch removed from our Discovery 42C to make room for a computer desk and a Euro Recliner with an Ottoman. The transfer was done at La Mesa RV in Mesa, AZ. I'm sure that is still there in the parts Dept.

If my memory is serving me correctly, it was 60" long and the covering was beige leather.
