Maple cabinets are nice, but we both prefer white. That said, I can’t talk you know who into paying someone to sand, seal, and paint all the cabinets and doors and closet in Panoply. I probably could have pushed it, but I know when I have pushed enough for one year. And I have definitely pushed.
So, the RV came with: maple cabinets and doors, a gray countertop, white walls, bone and gold handles, a white sink, and black stove. Add to that the medium gray of the dashboard and door panels. The one thing I did actually like was the blue pattern on the upholstery, but the upholstery had to go.
We thought about coordinating the passenger and driver seats with the dashboard – and not worry about the maple. But, the front of our RV will not be curtained off as often as some people’s are.
So, we are ordering tomorrow, Ermine Flexsteel Captains seats. (Not sure what color the one in this pic is, but it is close.) So, far, I have been quite pleased with Glastop, so we will have them install the seats as alterations must be done to the seat base.
Yes, we could have perhaps found them cheaper online or a different make, but we were able to sit in them at their store and they were helpful, did not try to push products on us, so they get the sale.
We chose this model because it does not seem that it will cut my circulation off the way many models do. And it is also comfortable for Leon – though we are about 8 inches apart in height.
I dared him to drink coffee while driving with that color seats. His response was, “We will just have washable slipcovers made.”
This is the same man who freaked when he realized just how many changes I required – and nearly fainted when he realized how much going more chemical free will cost. And now he is willing to pay for slipcovers – and they have to be organic cotton or Ultraleather to make me happy? I think refraining from coffee may be the cheaper option.
We are waiting impatiently on requested information from two flooring manufacturers, an insulation company (for the cab), and the radiant heating manufacturer. We are still on the hunt for what to cover the insulation with. Right now 100% pesticide/chemical free wool carpet is leading, but it is not really what I want.
