Video Transcript for Review of Lippert RV Couches and Chairs - Eddie Bauer Dutchmen Reclining Sofa Homeway Taupe - EB64FR

Hi, everybody, Andy here with etrailer. Let's take a look together at this Eddie Bauer Dutchman triple reclining RV sofa in Homeway Taupe. Now, this is a modular reclining couch that consists of three pieces. So you can get this couch as you see it here with all three pieces identified by the first part number there. Or you can get this without the center section, just the left-hand and the right-hand sections, and it turns into a loveseat. And that's identified by the second part number that you see there on your screen.

And I'm also popping a picture up there for you as well, just so you have a good view of what this is going to look like without the centerpiece, if that's what you would rather go for. And then if maybe you're looking, maybe you have this and you're just looking for a replacement left-hand side or a replacement right-hand side, we have you covered there as well, and I've got the part numbers there for you. And maybe you do have the loveseat and you want to make it a full couch and you just need that center section, so I got that number there for you as well. So all that to say, this is modular, you can get this exactly as you see it here, or get it in pieces, or as a loveseat, whichever is going to work best for you. Just take the part number that is going to work best for your particular application, pop it in the search field of our website.

That will take you to the piece that you're looking for and you can add that to your order. Now, this Eddie Bauer Dutchman triple reclining sofa is part of a lifestyle furniture line that's built by Lippert specifically for higher-end RV interiors, you could say. And as you probably know, Lippert is one of the biggest, most trusted manufacturers in the RV industry, and the Eddie Bauer branding adds kind of like an outdoor-inspired residential comfort style that many RV owners recognize and appreciate, and if you're looking at this particular line, maybe that's you as well. Now, what makes this sofas stand out is that it's designed specifically for use in your RV or camper. This is not just adapted from household furniture made to fit in an RV or camper, this is specifically for your RV, so it's designed to fit through your RV doors.

It's designed to mount securely for travel. It's going to maximize wall space with these wall-hugging recliners. So, it's going to give you the comforts of home, the luxuries of home, the features of home furniture without taking up all the space. But yet it's going to be built for traveling down the road. It's going to be designed for that in mind.

So to show you how easy these are going to be to recline, you have handles here. So on the side sections here, you've got what I call like a rip cord here. And all three pieces obviously are going to recline. So we've got the center section here. And so, as you can see, everything reclines just like that, and then you can lean back. So full reclining on all the pieces. Now, I don't have them connected together, but they are going to be very easy to connect. Let me see if you can see that there. I'm just going to pull this aside here real quick. We have these little tabs here, and so the tabs are just going to interconnect there with the slots there on that middle section. So this is going to be very easy to connect together so it'll stay together, or pull apart if maybe you need to take it out for whatever reason or disconnect it for whatever reason. We do have a plastic, I call it kind of like a sleeve here on the footrest with the Eddie Bauer branding. And some folks like to keep that on there, some folks like to take that off, you can do whatever you want. But if you keep that plastic sleeve on there, that's going to be great in protecting the footrest there. As you can see, I still have my shoes on. So if you are known to sit and recline and keep your shoes on, that plastic sleeve is going to do a great job of protecting the upholstery underneath, especially since this is a lighter color upholstery. It might be a good idea to keep it on just to keep that clean and easy to maintain. Now, this upholstery, let me give you a closer view here of this side that I'm sitting on here. This is a Mannington Linen, and so it's not a fabric, but it's kind of like a vinyl-ish material, but it's supposed to kind of look like it's a linen a little bit, and it's in a Homeway Taupe color is what Lippert calls this color. And so, I think you've got a pretty good representation of the color through the camera here. To my eye, it looks ever so slightly beige-ish. There's a slight hint of tan to it. It's not pure white or anything like that. I do like this trim here as well. I would definitely recommend taking advantage of the great photo set that we have on these product pages that go into a little more detail and closeups here than what I'm able to do on video. But like I said, it's a pretty good representation that you're getting here of the color of our upholstery here. I think it's going to be pretty durable. For instance, if you spill something on it, I don't think it's going to be really hard to clean this up, so I think it's going to hold up. It feels pretty durable, and it's comfortable as well. And speaking of comfort, this does have high-density foam, so it feels supported. You don't have that overly sinking in feeling. It's going to be easy to get up from, and the arm rests are very comfortable as well with that extra padding. We do have cup holders here on each side. So you've got a room for your coffee or beverage of choice. And let me go over some measurements here with you. So going back out to my wide view here, measuring end of arm to end of arm as we have it together here, we're sitting at a about 76 inches, let's call that wide. 76 inches wide, maybe just a slightly over that 76 mark. Now, if you choose the loveseat option, obviously you're not going to have the center section. That loveseat measures right about 54 inches wide. Some other measurements that might be helpful for you, the overall height is going to be when it's not reclined, when it's upright like this, the overall height is going to be about 39 inches tall. And then the overall depth is going to be about 36 inches deep. And then looking at seat measurements, some of our neighbors have asked for seat measurements from time to time, so let me give those to you. The depth of the seat is going to be about 22-1/2 inches deep. The width about 21-1/2 inches. And then from the top of the seat to the ground that it's going to be sitting on about 19-1/2 inches tall. So hopefully those measurements are going to be helpful for you in determining if this is going to fit in your space. There's not going to be a whole lot of assembly required. You basically are going to get this in two pieces in one box. Each piece is going to come in a box. So you'll have the base and then the back. And then the back is just going to slide into the base. I would recommend not putting the furniture together until you actually have it in your living space in your camper. Once you have both of those pieces in, then that's when I would recommend actually putting it together just so you have no problems getting it through the doors or anything like that. If you happen to have any other questions, don't hesitate to reach out. We always want to make sure that you're getting exactly what you need. Well, again, my name is Andy. Thank you for joining me.
