I own a 2020 17MKE, the fabric on the recliners is peeling off. I need to remove them so that I can bring them to an upholsterer. Has anyone removed their recliners? If so, can you tell me how they are attached and the best way to remove? Thank you.
 
If they are the Thomas Payne ones like we had in our 2018 2500RL, there's just a few screws underneath holding them to the floor. The backs come off with 2 levers on the back. Then they are pretty easy to fit through the door.
 
I just removed one of my Thomas Payne recliners in my 2021 Solitude last weekend to trouble shoot an issue, and there were only two Phillips head screws securing it to the floor. They are in front, so I put the footrest up to access. Then there is a bracket that attaches the chair to the center arm rest console on mine. I just needed to lift the chair up to disengage the bracket. I wasn’t removing the chair from the trailer so I didn’t need to remove the back to fit through the door, but apparently that’s pretty simple to do.

I just removed the Recliners from my 295RL due to peeling. A total of 5 screws holding the whole set in!
The backs came off like they were supposed to. Pleather peeling big time. Pleather flakes covered the floor. Good riddence!
