Switch from 27FB to 30RB Twin

We are thinking of swapping our Intl 27FB for a Intl 30RB Twin. The one thing we are wondering is if anyone has made this move and what they thought of having the couch and sitting area to the front.

The 27FB is great is you are sitting at the table, eating, and looking out the back, but it is a pain in the ass to always have to put the table down to relax and watch TV or just chill out with a book.

In all actuality we are outdoors most of the time, so I am starting the think it is not that important where the bed is.

Input needed from everyone!

Thanks, Rich

Rich, we were in the same exact position. Had a 2011 27FB Flying Cloud. Loved the trailor, except for the same issue you stated. We traded for a 2016 International 30 footer and love it. As you know, the lounge/couch is now up front and the dinette is separate. Also, the dual AC 50 amp is great!

We have a 2014 FC twin. We not only removed the table, we removed all of the seating, moved the furnace and had a cabinet and counter installed

. Great to read talk and occasionally watch TV. And we can swivel the recliners and watch the sunrise or set. Ours was not an original idea. Saw the remodel of sherif1.

We have a Classic 28 rear twin bed. We like having the living room as a separate living space.

I love the Serenity 30'

I had the 2015 27' FB.
Met a couple that had just traded up after only one year. Looked in theirs and I was sold! So I bought a 2016 30' Serenity. I love the larger lounge seating area for having friends over and for laying on.
I went from queen to twins for a more open feel. Wishing now I had kept the queen size. It was more comfortable to lounge on during the day or watching movies, etc
