Since we now have dedicated sleeping and sitting areas in our 2014 Tab Q we decided to  install the Lagun table mount a few weeks ago.  We ordered both the 19.5" and the 29.5" verticals so we have additional counter "prep" space that swings over our stove at night, and also table height for those rainy or chilly days when we choose to eat indoors.  The table top is a tool chest top. Can't wait for our next trip to try it out.  May need to add the outside mount before then though!



Happy Trails,

    @driftless What kind of window shades do you have?  They look smooth like a roll up shade.

    I thought at first this was a DM T@b but the floor looks like a nuCamp.

    @Sam, they are like roll up shades.  Not sure when they made the change to the current shades, but our 2014 came with this type.  When we added the opening front window this past summer, we only could get the new style shade on that window.  So now we have defined bedroom and kitchen window treatments!

    I did not realize they ever used roll ups.  How do you like them?  I'll bet they are easier to maintain.

    @SAM we haven't had any issues with them or the newer style on front window.  They seem to be easier to put up and down.  We also prefer the screen coming up from the bottom and the shade pulling down for our side windows.  However, we like the front one with the screen coming from the top because we tend to leave that window cracked open at night.  In the attached Pic you can see the shade halfway down and the screen halfway up on that side window.

    It looks like they run in the same kind of track as the current fabric shades.  Do they block the light better at night?

    @SAM, yes they are similar tracks.  We haven't noticed a significant difference in light blocking between the 2 styles.

    nüCamp (then Pleasant Valley) switched to the pleated shades for the 2015 model year but continued to install with the shades on top and screens coming from the bottom. For the 2017 model year they began installing with the screens coming from the top and the shades coming from the bottom.

    This is fabulous!  Hubby and I are trying to get a dedicated sleep /sitting area like yours but we have a TL version.  Would you happen to have a few pix of what the underside of your bed looks like?  We're trying to envision the structural components needed to modify our TL and a look "behind the curtain" so to speak, would be immensely helpful. 
    Love the Wisconsin towel over the stove!  I'm originally from Green Bay.

    @campergirl this discussion has some good pictures of what the frame work looks like in a u shaped seating area.  The only thing we added to make a dedicated bed was to add a bed slat.
