Good eye, Kathy - they do look similar under bright lights. The Dellmead TriFold Loveseat # TP49KR is a soft-textured woven fabric in a light beige tone, while the Driftwood TriFold Loveseat # TP69KR uses Thomas Payne’s PolyHyde faux-leather in a warm tan. If you want something that feels more like residential upholstery, go Dellmead; if you prefer the easy-wipe leather-look surface, Driftwood’s your pick.

Do you have pets or kids traveling with you? That’ll usually steer the choice one way or the other.

Thanks, Andrew! I do have a golden retriever and a cat, so sounds like Dellmead might not be the smartest choice. Does the Driftwood stay cool in the summer?

@Kathy Hey! The Driftwood’s PolyHyde surface actually does a pretty good job staying moderate in temperature - it’s not true leather, so it won’t trap heat the same way. Most folks who camp in warm climates just throw a light quilt or blanket over the cushions when parked in direct sun and it’s perfect. One thing to note is that it may be more prone to leaving marks from pet claws, whereas the woven fabric on the Dellmead would likely not show those as easily.
