The countdown is on!!!
We got our final pics today and are anxiously awaiting our pickup in November! Because I know there will be questions about the bed, I will explain. When we explained to ETI what we wanted, they had a picture of one they had done previously. That was a big help to us as we tried to visualize it. Our plan is to use 2 twin beds- one in the back and one on half of the dinette. That will leave us room to sit and eat on the other half of the dinette. Then we plan to find a small (hopefully comfortable) chair to put between the bed and the bathroom. I will probably use the bed for lounging and watching tv, while hubby gets the chair. As they say, "Time will tell".
Thanks to everyone that has shared their pics and the vast amount of information that we have gotten from reading this forum! I can't even imagine getting through this process without it.

Very nice! Looks like it will be a very functional layout for you! Love your customization choices for floor, counter and fabric. Good luck with the pick up trip!

Someone was asking about this setup, kind of, just a few weeks back. Only difference was that they wanted to use their dinette in the back as a permanent full bed with your "lounge" style area in the front. It's nice to see what it actually looks like arranged that way in the front. Did you ask ETI to leave the usual foot-wide gap between the end of the bed/bench and the drawer stack? If not, I wonder why ETI didn't just run the lounge bench all the way to the drawer stack.

WOW! That is really thinking outside the box! You lose some storage under the front bed, but add a comfortable place to sit. Lounging on the front bed should be fine with a wedge cushion. Thanks for the pictures and explanation!

A Lagun table mount with small table up front would sure be nice! Swing it over next to bathroom when sleeping and pull it back over for two to sit for dinner! All the possibilities and new found room. Loving it!!!!!!!

We did ask for an additional narrow cabinet between the end of the bed and the drawer stack, but they are no longer doing that. We have a short list of possibilities for that small space- dog bowl, small vacuum, etc..

Thanks! We haven't decided what we will do about a table- considering the algun mount.

Check out West Marine's High Backed Chair for a possibility for the seat. I use one in my 21 (and had a pair of them in the 17) and find them comfortable.

A few observations on some changes that I have noticed.
1) Raised dinette: although they may have always built it this way I noticed that the floor is raised in-between the seats and the seats are then raised to the proper level. The door at the end of the seat is then off the floor, which is different from I am used to seeing.
2) Outside shower is now located at the rear corner next to the power outlet.
3) Looks to (possibly) be a different type of quick connect power cord and connection.
4) The cabinet above the frig now opens to the side instead of up toward the ceiling.
5) The shower spray cord is now attached to the wall of the bath just above the sink.
Looking forward to our November pickup !
Steve
