Betsy & I have a folding table and stationery swivel chairs that we are thinking of swapping out for a built-in dinette set that we have seen on other Breakaways.

Does anyone have one that they have taken out and would be willing to sell or swap?

Any comments on built-in dinette vs. stationery swivel chairs would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Carl & Betsy Feren

I have the dinette in my '75 Barth and it is not comfortable if you are going to sit for an extended period of time. This may not be important to you if you have other seating options available. I only have the dinette (no other couch or chairs).

We had a dinette, and hated it. I took it out and put in two swivel chairs with a fold down table in between.

The dinette was OK for eating, perhaps slightly better, because of the extra area. But for every other use, the present setup surpasses, by far.

8 years later, we love the setup and would never go back. Never, never, never.

YMMV.
