Just an FYI

We have a 2016 Imagine with the brown pleather and have had no peeling until this year and it's unbelievable how much it is suddenly peeling. We would like to attempt to repair, so could you please tell me which of the dozens of leather repair products worked so well for you. Thanks in advance!!

PS. I wonder if its because we moved from MD to FL??

Agreed. The delamination of the faux leather coating is REALLY annoying! We bought dark brown loveseat covers from Amazon. There are three pieces for each half, but they look decent. Our problem is that the seats are sewn to the back so there's no way to make them stay in place without making holes in the seams to run elastic straps to the frame to hold them down.

We got the same style covers for convertible couches...but they have to be removed in order to open the bed!

I need to cover ours too. Is it still holding up?

The options we ordered are low back, power reclining with outside controls, and the UltraLeather upholstery. It should arrive in Maryland about the same time we do this summer (shipping to the kids' house).

Hi Rob,

Now that you've had your new furniture for about a year, I was wondering if you were pleased with your selection?

Thanks,
Spencer

We absolutely love it (90% is Laura's opinion since they're "her chairs". She lets me sit by her every now and then...). I spend most of my seated time in my Ekornes Stressless recliner with laptop desk. The Lambright seating looks as good as the day it was installed and there's zero sagging or denting of the cushioning.

Our 2022 Solitude came with the newer Thomas Payne theater seat and couch. The covers are sort of a matte finish vinyl that seems very sturdy and is comfortable plus easy to clean. When we were shopping GD's a few years ago that shiny pleather furniture was a turn-off.
After almost a year of full time use (and with cats) this new style is holding up very well. No complaints at all.

We had stopped at Lambright during one of the rally's and was impressed with them. Marcy asked about having different combinations including color schemes. They said as they make the furniture right there they could do anything you wanted. The prices were a little high comparing to Lippert or RecPro but when you see what you are getting it"s worth every penny.

I pulled the dinette to add more seating, since we had 2 year old RecPro theater seats from the previous trailer. Next to the Thomas Payne seats, it will be interesting to see how each wears. Hope to add a fold up table to the island, and we'll use "TV trays" or the like in this rig at mealtimes, or ideally eat outside.
