Storage under dinette seats (2018 23' International FB)

We purchased a used 2018 23' International Serenity. There is a storage location under each dinette seat having a hinged door that folds out and down toward the galley. The backs of these storage areas are open. On the bottom of each storage area, there are two parallel tracks that leave the impression a sliding drawer or some type of sliding container was at one time there, but was removed (see attached photo). Does the 23' International come from the factory with a sliding container inside these storage areas?

They do, just a Rubbermaid container with a top. Nothing fancy, I’ll try and measure tonight to provide dimensions.

Thanks for posting the label, which pointed me to Sterilite. I was able to find one of their containers that would work for my situation, as a 12 inch wide container would be too side for the opening. However, Sterilite makes another container that is almost the same size, but about one inch narrower. It fits perfectly in the space, making it useful again.

If the Sterilite label you attached is from your 2016 30' International, please note that mine is a 2018 23' International, so perhaps your storage space is a bit wider.

Really appreciate your help ...

Thanks for posting the picture of the label, as it pointed me to Sterilite. I was not able to use the same container, as it was too wide for my opening, but I found a Sterilite container that works. I've attached a picture of the label.

If the label was from your 2016 30' International, it must have a slightly wider storage area than my 2018 23' International, as 12 inches would not have fit.

chrisnancy: The container you found is very close to what was supplied with my 2019 23FB:

Ahh sorry, glad you found one. Not sure why they wouldn’t make them all the same size.... seems inefficient from a production standpoint.
