We have a nice full size table and chair set in our fiver. We were wondering about what others have done to reduce down ( because 90% of the time it is just the two of us) to something that takes less space , but yet function as a table for the 10 percent of the time that we may entertain with others. In other words , the best of both worlds. We have looked on the inter net at rolling drop leaf tables that may be the answer . This could even be rolled over towards the kitchen area for DW to use while cooking etc. . Have you got pictures or any ideas ? Thanks - Life is Good

Our table set has a drop leaf for adding about 12 inches to the table. We use it on occasion. As for the chairs? Last year I took all four of them apart and made storage under the seats. Now DW has 4 more places to put stuff.

Drop-leaf table and 2 of original chairs. At Target, get 2 nice folding wooden chairs ($10-12)to store under/behind sofa. Dispose of remaining original chairs however you see fit. I did the chair thing in our Phaeton for 9 yrs and it worked very well! This MH only has 2 chairs so the wooden ones came with us.


See ya' down the road!

I would consider getting rid of 2 of the chairs and then put the table to the wall. Camp chairs might work OK for entertaining for that 10%
