Twin Bed to Queen
Has anyone converted at twin bed set up to a queen?
Looking at a local coach that has twins and would like to have a queen bed instead. Any things to watch out for? Thanks John |

Thanks for the replies,
did some searching and did find other post about this.
looks like the most practical way to do this is bridge the gap in the middle and slide the beds together or replace with queen mattress.
I like simple, and it could be put back to original easily.
Thanks
John

John:
By bridging the middle, you get a ton of storage underneath in the middle also.. My 81FC31 was set up that way; also simple to return to Twins if so needed.

Twin Bed to Queen
Careful, you may run into other issues. I've been debating this very
thing since I bought my coach. There are heaters in the center aisle that would be covered by the bed. Probably not a huge deal if you leave the end of the aisle open for the heat to escape, but if you want to store things under it, you'll have to disable or relocate those heaters. Disabling will keep you cold at night and relocation makes it difficult to convert back to twins. If I were to shift everything to one side, I'd lose the aircraft-style storage space above one of the beds and a huge dresser at the foot of it and it would be a complete remodel, moving the water tank, the whole deal. Not an option as I'm not willing to give up that space. So, I'm going to wind up bridging the gap and re-locating the heaters one of these days. The negative is I'll have to crawl into bed from the foot of the bed, rather than enter from the side, and I'll lose a good bit of aisle space that's quite useful for dressing, etc. Any time I want to access the storage space back there I'll have to crawl across the bed to do it instead of standing in the aisle as I do now. I'm still young, so no problems, but still a bit of a hassle. The positive side is I'll be able to install a king sized bed back there, which will be very nice. My honest suggestion is to wait to buy until you find a coach with the configuration you want. It will be a lot less hassle and you'll probably be happier. I don't regret my purchase - I intentionally compromised on the twin beds because the coach had double couches up front and cruise-airs underneath, a combination that I found on only two coaches anywhere near my price range after a year of searching. I let the bed deal slide to get those features. I'm happy I did it, but rearranging the bedroom will bring still more compromises... -Ryan '86 PT-40 8V92 On Sun, Oct 5, 2008 at 7:48 AM, John > Thanks for the replies, > > did some searching and did find other post about this. > > looks like the most practical way to do this is bridge the gap in the middle > and slide the beds together or replace with queen mattress. > I like simple, and it could be put back to original easily. > > Thanks > John > > |
