Title: J Couch Value?
Post by: Elliott on December 26, 2020, 09:41:44 pm
We will be taking the J Couch and table out of our U320 in the near future to make a work space. Are these worth anything on the used market? Ours looks like it has hardly ever been used (because I suspect that is the case). It is caramel in color.

Save it for the next owner.  We find ours to be very functional especially after changing the table to a rectangular one.  We have two folding wooden chairs that make dinner for four, games and lots more.  Better in our view than a booth especially since we are taller than most.

I would if I could. We have a storage unit the size of a large closet for all our belongings that aren't with us and I can't get behind paying for a larger one just to store a couch for the next guy. Hopefully there isn't a next guy!

We had one of those in our 95. It was also in excellent shape. I removed it, saved the fabric and threw the rest.

Find a buddy that will store it for a month while you run it on all available add sites at a reasonable price.. Sure it has value, anyone who's paid to have one recovered can testify to that..

Much more elaborate than the J-couch in our old 95. I wouldn't throw it either.

Would love it in our 97, but no slide.

I actually put one in a 8' camper I had, in place of the dinette. Was really cool

In removing it you will have to remove couch from base to get out the door. Comes out two pieces. Additional help will be needed as it is quite heavy and difficult to get past screen door without damaging screen. Lower front panels just pop off easily accessing attach bolts. Removing table first makes it easier.
