Just another great sleep last night , windows open and feels awesome, the fresh, desert dry air, clear blue skies and not too cold, This is what we love about the southwest and why we are here. Nothing quiet like it.As the sun rose at 7 am I headed out for a nice long walkabout around the park did manage 2 miles this morning just enjoying the peace a quiet here and say hi to a few other people walking as well.

| then as the sun is rising looks wonderful |
But it was ready to go unbolted for the floor and all we had to do was drag it outside and into a bin. Suzie helped me this chair is well over 100 lbs but we did it! Thank Suzie she is amazing.

| this was a nice recliner but too expensive to maintain landfill can have it, good-bye recliner |
The cables to fix it were about $180.00. And the chair that I found at Staples on sale for $179.00. When I checked on line it was only $139.00, Ok done deal. From the land fill to Staples in Sierra Vista. Got the chair for the online price and and a 7 year warranty. Into the coach and back to the campground before noon. Before we set up I replaced another compartment door lift under our slide. All set up and enjoyed a light tasty lunch.
After lunch I spent about an hour assembling this chair and got it all set up. Not really an rv chair but is exactly what I wanted, extremely comfortable , reclines the way I want and has a lumbar support and head rest.
 |
| so much smaller than our old heavy one |
 |
| yes this is what I want |
 |
| reclines perfectly I just need to do some modifications in the future |
 |
| oh my I am going to love this chair |
 |
| gotta love this warm sunny weather! |

Where have we been this Winter?
Your new chair looks comfy! If ever wat to try a restaurant in Sierra Vista I highly recommend the Landmark Cafe https://www.landmark-cafe.com/
ReplyDeleteJoe and I have eaten there many times and He loved the Schnitzel. They have local entertainment and the music is great.
It is very comfy thanks. Thanks for the tip on the Landmark, maybe check it out one if these times, I checked there menu and no schnitzel on it any more, too bad we love schnitzel.
DeleteSunrise pictures are great. And that new chair is like sky fi sure looks comfortable and you look very relaxed
ReplyDeleteThanks Jo a great way to start the day. This chair is so comfortable took me a long time to find the right one.
DeleteThe new recliner does indeed look comfortable. Let us know how you manage to anchor it for travel. I'm sure you have a cleaver plan for that.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jeff, I have a few ideas, not going to jump right into it now, we be giving that lotsa thought, want to make it look nice too. I did not put the casters on it, so is pretty stable.
DeleteNice new chair ... enjoy! And pretty sunrise pictures.
ReplyDeleteThanks I am enjoying it, Glad you enjoyed our sunrise too.
Deleteany recliners we have had, the backs pull up and off. Did you try that ? Kelly
ReplyDeleteOur other recliners the backs pulled off as well but not this one a very different design.And the 3 cables plus a handle was pretty complex and I am sure very expensive when new
DeleteYou certainly got a bargain! The chair looks great, sort of NASCAR inspired, eh? :c)
ReplyDeleteIt was a very good deal (100 dollars off the regular price) no complaints there, It is designed as a computer gamers chair so vey comfortable for long periods of sitting. In my case a very comfortable tv chair.
DeleteI like the look of the NASCAR chair. We are camped beside James and Linda from Ont.
ReplyDeleteThanks Jim say hi to James and Linda Court for us, have not seen them for a few years.
DeleteThe new recliner looks very comfortable. Looks like in no time at all you will be sound asleep. I sure would be.
ReplyDeleteYes Peter it is wonderful, I just sit in it and it feels amazing.
DeleteDitto on the Landmark Cafe and schnitzel!! Any chair that fits and does what you want it to do is the PERFECT chair!!
ReplyDeleteI checked their menu and no schnitzel otherwise we would go for sure. This is one wonderful chair so much more user friendly.
DeleteGlad you like the new chair but it's hard to let go of a comfy old one.
ReplyDeleteYes Larry, sad to let it go but really loving the new one, it is actually more comfortable than my old one.
DeleteWe just may have to check out that chair. Looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteIt is worth checking out. And a good price on line, I just dod not out the casters on, and have to raise it 1 inch off the floor.
DeleteYour old one looks too nice to got to the landfill, hopefully someone takes it home from there! When we were kids used to love going "dump shopping" so hope they do that there. Your new one looks wonderful! Beautiful sunrise pics! Dinner looks amazing too!
ReplyDeleteIt looks nice but needs to be bolted to the floor and not as comfortable as it looks. The landfill has a guard and a gate, we had to throw it in a bin. The new one is wonderful.
DeleteDesert sunrises are usually awesome and dinner very tasty.
Stream lined looking new chair. If those are castors I'd remove them before you go for a ride you don't want to take. Enjoy the chair George.
ReplyDeleteThanks Deb I did not put the casters on, not good in an rv. Loving the chair.
DeleteAfter fixing something a few times, it is time to say goodbye. Glad you got a new chair and that you like it. That's the main thing.
ReplyDeleteContinue to enjoy your time at the park.
Yes Patsy it was time to go away, I am enjoying this chair, so comfy.
DeleteI’d never even heard of computer gaming chairs but what you have now is somewhat similar to my preferred seating for both office & home lounging for TV & reading. (I have a couple of the Steelcase Leap chairs in the reclining & height adjustable "WorkLounge" version + ottomans.)
ReplyDeleteThe lumbar cushioning & side bolsters on your chair will provide better all-day bone support than a cushy recliner that your spine crumples up & gets lost in, IMO. Bigger is not always better.
Plus you’ll get the extra bonus as an RVer that it’s less bulky & much lighter so your engine doesn’t have to lug around the extra pounds!
I agree about the casters, though. One thing I'd always wondered is how I'd install my Leap WorkLounge in a MH so I'm interested to see what you come up with.
I agree with the comfort and support, this is so comfortable. Never heard of a gaming chair before either.
DeleteWithout the castors I need to raise the chair 1 inch off the floor to clear the lifting mechanism.
My plan is to built a short platform, secure it to the floor, Screws through the legs to secure the chair and cover the platform with the extra flooring we have back home. Which we won't have access to until later next spring. In the meantime it works. And does not move around. I may need a bungie cord to keep in from swivelling while we travel.
When it is eventually done it will look nice.
Great plan.
DeleteComfie looking chair!
ReplyDeleteThanks Stew it sure is!
DeleteYou look very comfy in your new chair...enjoy!
ReplyDeleteThanks guys really enjoying it!
