I would recommend RecPro's chair. We have the Charles collection double recliner RV sofa, which is very comfortable for two and reclines almost to a flat position when snug against the wall. Easy to take a nap on it.

I also want to replace my sofa with recliner in rv for my parents. They often have back pain so I think recliner would be a better option for them on long trips. Have anyone recommended good one for me? Thanks!

Thanks for the feedback, did you bolt it down?

Many don't have that box ours does not. We have a removable power cord that plugs into the back receptacle.

love seats made today will come apart, the back will release and if you have to the bottom will separate. I would say for sure to get a wall hugger. The loveseat in the 2016 looks nice but is not made very well. If you are going to the trouble of changing the couch buy a nice one.
Which and where did you get your love seat?
What did you do about the wooden wire box, for the power cord?

We have Havertys here and they have some nice pieces. Flexsteel has good furniture but it is a little pricey. Remember to measure, measure, measure and we found the wall hugger to be the best option.

If anyone is removing a sofa bed we'd be happy to buy it and get rid of our jackknife.
