After living in our RV for over a year and a half, and working at our dinette on our laptops for 8 to 10 hours a day, our backs and necks are killing us! The dinette is incredibly uncomfortable and has terrible ergonomics. So we're taking action and removing our RV's dinette and replacing it with a comfortable, spacious, and ergonomic workstation!

I loved how you kept the conversation & tool sounds over the sped up video. I didn't notice at first, but really enjoyed that. I love your attention to detail. It looks stunning!
What I like best about your videos is the that you and your beautiful bride are not only married but you are really good friends also! Two kind, gentle, loving people! You are great examples for the younger generation.
In my motorhome, I had two couches facing each other in the rear area. I replaced one with a full length desk like yours and it made me so much happier. You paid much more attention to detail and it looks so nice that I'm inspired to redo my whole desk in a similar way. One thing I did was put a 2 drawer file cabinet at one end, which proved to be quite useful. But because there are two of you on the desk, there's no room. Great job and a really great video!
You both did a great job ! I really wish there were more videos showing how people personalize their RV's. Thank you for sharing
There will be as more and more live in their rigs. Stay tuned.
OMG -- THERE ARE HUNDREDS!
you guys are so camera friendly. the project and filming of it was top notch. wonderful job, it was a pleasure to watch.
I agree!!! 😉😊😄
I believe that is a very sturdy and clean modification. Of course some viewers cannot resist the urge to offer a shoulda, a woulda or a coulda...long after you have completed the remodel. Thanks for the ideas.
Man you two work so well together. That's the way couples should work.
I enjoyed watching your build, particularly the butcher block top. If you still have problems with back pain, I suggest that you modify your work surface height to approximately 27" high. I am guessing that the height you are using is more like 29" high, which is too high for using a keyboard for extended periods of time. I have been dealing with office furniture, both workstations and seating, for over 4 decades on both the east coast and the west coast and helping people with back pain issues. I have been able to help over half my customers with back pain by simply adjusting the work surface height from dining/executive (29") to typing/secretarial (27"). I suspect this is not something you want to undertake, especially after investing all this energy setting up your work station. This is just an idea going forward, should you experience continued back pain. Thank you for doing an outstanding job on the presentation of your project. Don't get discouraged if you come up with improvements on projects you have completed. It has been happening to me for decades. I'm getting better, but not perfect yet.
I think it’s awesome that as young as y’all are that you are able to travel and see the country before it’s not possible anymore. Your project is very similar to a full interior rebuild I did on a Flagstaff 26’ trailer with 1 slide. I hated the dinettes in every RV I’ve had. They are very uncomfortable, and take up too much space. Your design to make a workspace and eating area that is both comfortable, and so much more useable space is great! Keep your videos coming, I enjoy them. Thanks,
Scott
So do I!!! I completely agree!!!
I am 67 and plan to be a rubber tramp until I am 110. Even if they take my license I will just eat more oatmeal, squint harder and drive very slow. Yep...or maybe not move much.
@@geraldhenrickson7472 Right on!! Hahahaha, I hear ya!!
I love that your kitties and puppies were a part of this. This is such a nice job, you have really thought/planned this out. Good job!
VERY Impressive!! It looks so nice! I really envy those who can take it slow, do it right, and create a professional piece at the end! Such a great video and a great addition! Keep up the awesome content!
I completely agree!!
I enjoyed watching this video. My favorites are whenever you make upgrades to your RV. It helps expand my knowledge and thinking of the possibilities with my future RV. Love how you explain everything you're doing too. Animals are as adorable as ever! Your new work space looks SPECTACULAR! Great job David and Jenni.
I ABSOLUTELY agree!!!
Lol ... My husband and I learned to never say "Piece of cake!" when referring to any home project. Putting in a new kitchen sink and faucet ... 6-8 trips to Home Depot and 12 hours later, project was finally completed. Thanks for the video, looks great! Happy Trails!
i like the way you are taking your time to disassemble the previous dinette so as to not damage the existing materials. Great way to have it for re-use or reclaiming later
"We have no need to ever open that door again."
Famous last words! It looks great!
David and Jenny, you've done a "bang-up" job on this mod: well designed, good selection of materials, attention to detail and execution. Butters (especially) has laid claim to "her spot" in the inbox tray! Am so pleased that you showed us the project steps in full. Again, thanks! Y'all Be Safe!
I so agree!!
I love the way you both work together , my husband and I always worked together, and I did learn a bunch of stuff by helping ,
Thank you Mildred! 😁😊
Coming from a retired carpenter .....Nice job and you got an office with a view
Nice view, nice work and their NICE people!! 😊👨👩
Epic build. Looks amazing. However puppy is sad.. He lost his cushion.. LOL great vlog guys.
She has the bed all to herself though and she's much happier with that haha
Guys this upgrade looks AMAZING. Its insane to think of how something so little makes the design so much better. I love it
I agree!
Love it! That was the tidiest construction project I’ve ever seen. Must have been all those furry supervisors. 😊👍🏻
Yes, I would certainly say so! Ha ha ha!
Baba Ganush It’s called joking. Dude!
Love that you built this yourselves. We did a similar concept when we pulled out the dinette and put in a desk. Small motor home with no slides and we got creative. Oh and I LOVE the functionality of this design you guys did. Nice work.
I enjoyed watching your little gray kitty trying to play with you throughout this video. I loved it.
We took out the rear bunks in our trailer to make a craft center for the wife. We put in the foamular and board in the cargo doors like you did. We added a cat flap into the board/foamular of one of the cargo door spaces. When we land, we open the cargo door to expose the cat flap behind it and put up a folding dog kennel for our kitty, on the exterior. We cut a hole in the kennel to match the location of the cat flap and put the kennel up on a table which is butted up against the side wall of the trailer. She goes out from the cat flap right into the kennel. We keep her litter box in it and she spends a lot of time out there, especially at night, to watch the world go by. She loves it.
Would love to see a video of this .I just bought a fifth wheel and thinking of removing the bunks to make a walking closet and change room
@@junehanna4293 Our coach is an older model and it doesn't have slides. We took out the dinette and the folding sofa. Now there's so much more room! We put a set of Sterilite dressers on one side and a smaller folding futon couch on the opposite site. I have enough room for a TV tray and a chair in the isle between the couch and the dressers that I use for my laptop. The next project is to build a folding bed platform that will span between the 2 front seats, remove the futon sofa and put a desk in its place.
I had a travel trailer with the front booth type dinet setup. Yes it made into an extra bed that was never used but took up the front 1/3 of the trailer, was not comfortable and a pain to do anything with. I did the same thing, turned it into a tv lounge/computer room and was soo pleased with the new setup.
Isn't fun personalizing your RV? We loved our project and look forward to messing around with our new RV... Great job... Looks great! 👍👏
A word of caution... Trailer Mfgs use the cabinets/dinettes to secure walls for reasons of trailer frame flex VS box structure flex happening at different rates when traveling.... Looks like your desktop should keep that integrity though... Keep an eye on your corners... 👍
It sure is a GREAT remodel !!!!
What a nice job you guys did! Thanks for the step-by-step; very helpful for the many who want to ditch their dinettes!
You guys continue to create great videos. they are well filmed, & well a documented instructional process. Thank you. these give me hopes for attempting mods myself.
The table looks great. Nice clean lines. More space to move around. No pedestal legs to catch your feet on. You did a very good job of making it look like it was built that way. Thanks for the video.
I love your new setup! It's so awesome that you have a huge desk, a nice big window in front of you, and space have space to eat a meal at a table. Pretty soon we'll be removing the more traditional dining table in our RV (not a dinette) and chairs to replace it with a large desktop and computer chairs. We won't have space in our 5th wheel to add a dining table in the same slide-out, but we typically have meals in the living room or outdoors when it's nice anyways. You can't beat having an ergonomic work station for TWO in an RV. Thanks for sharing!
Excellent transition. I like how you converted your space to make it more multi-functional and comfortable to work. Great job!
Looks like Sweetie and Alice had no problems with ergonomics in the beginning of the video!
Nice job on the remodel and the video.
Nice job guys. For carpets one option is carpet tiles .... easy to install, can be removed if dirty or soiled for cleaning as well plenty of options regarding nap & thickness
I see in your effort in producing QUALITY , in your remodel and in your videos. Continue to be an inspiration for others to follow their dreams,as you have and you will be wildly successful. Keep on keeping on!
another suggestion for accessing furnace: put a piano hinge on one side so you can just lift the top if you need to work on the furnace. You can re-nail the trim on the lid only and it will still give you a finished look.
Yes I was surprised they didn't put a piano hinge on it too.
The plan is to take the top off the box if we have any problems with the furnace and service it and then re-secure the top of the box with trim
@Lina: How would a hinge help for the occasional, perhaps never, need to get at the furnace? It has got an unwieldy table sitting on top of it.
G Henrickson Yes. The legs on the table would have to be removed if there were a hinge. They may be able to slide the lid out from under the legs if they have to remove it. Either way...you can’t always think of every contingency before it’s done.
Love how you went step by step. It ended up turning out Great !!!
I love the way you both interact with your pets.
Great job. Looks like a very nice improvement for all of you. Thanks for sharing
Your cat and dog are hysterical!
Love this - gives me hope that i can do a few things to my rig. Thanks!!!
We took out our dinette last year, boy was it a job! We ultimately decided that since used RV prices were so good, to just upgrade to a larger trailer. We are so glad we did, no looking back and no more rubbing elbows, were very happy!
why is it so darn enjoyable to watch this young man work?? lol, excellent video and content. Thank you guys. Y'all are a beautiful family and I love your fur babies :D
Hahaha! Aww thanks Melissa 😁🤗
And the SAME goes for me !!!!
Nice job guys! Butters was excited because she thought you were making her a cat box! Lol Cats and their boxes.🐈
Best DIY I have ever seen. Looks absolutely beautiful.
My oh my, it certainly is nice, isn't it !??!!!
It’s so FUN to ‘watch’ people REMODEL!!💁🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️...great job❣️
Wow! This video is so awesome! I watched the whole video and it’s so well put together. I want to transform my dinette area into a more comfortable place and I learned so much from your video. Thanks!
Hi guys, super job on the new 'office', looks as if it's always been there. And Butters has claimed the box already! Hope you enjoy your new space. Stay safe and keep up the good work.
LOL that cat looks way more vicious than the dog. Dog looks like a big lover.
Love the redo. Nice job. Love your channel and your content. Happy travels!!!💕💕
What a nice job, you are both so good at the details. It's lovely.
Amazing job you guys did!! Looks SOOO much nicer in there now! Congrats!!
It looks real nice!

Cute kitty she just wants to help!
Better Rottie..
LOVE this! Great video. It turned out so nice! Lot of work but I know y'all are happy!
Really enjoyed this video. Well done with beautiful results to show for your time and effort. This may be a strange comment, but I love the high-speed scenes. They let us see so much more of the actual process in such a short time. I also love how you handle the audio...adding in regular-speed audio clips of what is going on in the high speed action. Much better than going full-chipmunk-mode. It was a nice detail in your editing, and very enjoyable. Thanks!
I agree!
😎👍great job!
I didn't hear anything you said about the blue insulation stuff jammed into the storage door. Cat was stealing the show.
We're taking out our dinette in our Springdale 260LE this weekend. Our plan is cabinets. Just my wife and I, and our 2 shiba inus. We want the extra space.
Great job you guys!!! Everything looks so good and the desk top turned out beautiful!!! And I love your fur babies!!!
Me too, I do agree!!
Great job. Wonderfully explained with quality and good looking results. We enjoy your videos!
You have lots of help and supervision with your beautiful animals! Cool project
Super nice work! You two are a cute couple. Wishing you every success.
I absolutely totally agree with that statement!!!! I love you guys!!! 😄😉😊😍😙😚🙅😻💑❤💖💟💝💕💛💚💗 💞 Love always Auntie Didi 👵
I pause at 6 minute to say I like your trailer. I like the simplicity of it, especially no slides. We’re on our 3rd travel trailer since 1978! Bought this one in 1998, be 21 years old in July! 7x25, simple still good. I just need to fix toilet flush thingamajig, it’s stuck now. I don’t get all this, “And it’s got a ceramic toilet!” stuff. This plastic one has lasted over 20 years and this valve sticking is first problem!
I love your little kitty!! I can tell by the way your animals act that you love and take good care of them. So much love there...
Your Rottie is beautiful. You Guys must be good parents to deserve such good kids. Plus you both work well with each other.
Very nice I appreciate the time and effort that you took to do the little details to perfection. A classy chassis, well done.
Love your transformation! I have the same camper in a shorter version, I turned the dinette into a permanent daybed. I don't fulltime (yet), but weekend with my son and three dogs. I've also added a curtain that wraps from the daybed area, across the kitchen and ends on the otherside of the bathroom door. This gives each side a little privacy and when completely wrapped around makes the bathroom three times as big. This winter I am working on changing out the bathroom door for a sliding door since I like to leave it open for ventilation, but don't like that it blocks the walkway. Happy Travels!!
Have to admit I watched this video because I saw the picture of your rottie. I love mine! Great renovation.
I agree!
Wow nice mod! It's awesome seeing a couple as young as my girlfriend and I doing this! We're not doing it full time like you two but we plan to take the kiddo along with us ALOT this year. Looks like you guys are in yuma here!! We live in the foothills and not far from where you filmed this if I'm not mistaken! Happy camping!
Love the table, the top of the furnace box looks like a prime location for a kitty bed lol
Brilliant tip about the glue bead on carpet edge. New subscriber.
I loved the huge dining area you had, especially in a smaller trailer. That being said, we don't live in ours. Gotta do what ya gotta do! Like the phrase... Necessity is the mother of invention! Way to go! :)
You guys are great DYIselfers. I learn a lot everytime you do a project.
I believe that we all learn a lot from David and Jenni 😉😊😄
Thank you guys! I'm going to do this to my travel trailer. I loved how your one crazy cat and your dog love each other.
Awesome! Good luck! 👍
It will be nice to have that big window as a backdrop while working. Looks good!
Been looking forward to this! Thanks for posting!
I know you guys are so proud of your work. Creating a customized area to meet your needs and it looks so great! I bet it feels better too 😊, but it seems to me that now you really don't have seating for a guest or visitor inside. Was that ever a concern?
You're very inspiring, informing, open and positive with your vlogs, that's why I am a fan. Oh, and your fur family! 😍 Those guys are a part of all you do! Loved those bits of Alice "helping" and supervisor Sweetie watching over it all, and Butters making sure it was up to her inspection!
Can't wait to see what fate unbounded in your next vlog. Love you guys!❤️🐾🐈
Aww thanks Jini! We were and still are a bit worried about if we have company but we can all either eat or chat outside at a table or guests can sit in our chairs while we sit on the bed. No matter what we'll figure something out 😀
I sincerely agree with everything you said!!!!
@@FateUnbound - David and Jenni, you guys are AWESOME!!!! 😄😉😊 ❤ Auntie 👵 Didi 😚 😍
It is great work but watching the antics of the cats makes my day!
Love your videos. I really like the new desk better than the old one
I can't get any work done now because I am totally addicted to watching your adventure... #AwesomeStuff!!!
I think it came out great! I did a similar build in my 1988 Elite 23ft Class C it gave me a more spacious area to work-eat-entertain myself. I have an office chair with wheels & armrests that can be raised straight up so I can slide under counter allowing more room to move around. When living fulltime I personalizing your RV to your needs & Desires makes it more of a Home. Peace & Blessings!
Love your pets! The cat is too cute when "helping".
Glad I found this video! We removed our dinette AND sofa bed and have two bays to close up and insulate. I wasn't sure what to do. I like your solution with the foam board insulation. I think we're going to do a wainscoting type of cover for the lower portion of the wall.
I love to watch other people work! Lol! Well done, you guys! Looks great! Cool to have access to that shop and tools (and help!) Love your cats and dog together, too. So cute! 👏💞
I'm in the process of doing the exact same thing and y'all just gave me a ton of tips...
A great job guy's , well done and now more workspace . 😎🤗😍
Love that your girl dove in there and helped ya not to bad of a build for not doing it for a living
Absolutely fantastic job you did. I'm a full time RV tech and I was very impressed with what you did there. I cant say enough how much I liked what you did. I will check out your other videos for sure.
Well designed, explained and executed. A pleasure to follow along! (And I love the critters!)
I agree with you on all points of your comment!
Good job. Alice is so cute helping you😂
Great job on the remodel. Looks more functional now.
Great change. I bet your backs are already feeling better.
You guys did an awesome job on this project. Keep up the good videos.
Just took the dinette out of our 5th wheel. This is perfect for our space! Thank you for sharing
You two did and excellent job. Having lived with a dinette like yours, I know how uncomfortable they are. Wish I had your skills.
Great job on the reno. I have seen the desk area in later videos but had never seen the process. I love how you can look out the back window and have a wonderful view.
Great carpet work, Jenny!!! It looks awesome!!! The furnace box came out great too!!! What a team!!!
awesome Job, looks nice and clean, that dog is so funny, gets in every photo
The cats are cute, but that Rottie is to die for. Its probably a bit too long for many folks, but very well put together. The small table that you move in is a great idea. You guys make a good team. I also removed the dinette in a 23' Airstream.
I was imagining you two in 30 or so years getting elderly but being so in tune with one another no task will be to difficult. kind of heart warming. watching you work together made me think of my parents who were un-stop-able as a team when they were young and healthy but even more so impressive when not quite as strong but so well oiled as teammates. : )
What a great project! That seating arrangement will be better for enjoying the views from your picture widow. Well done.
In a van you can carry some sort of chair, something with back support and reasonable padding, even if the chair has to fold. I had dinettes and dismal sofas in several RV's. This would really work for me, and I just don't understand why there aren't more options. I would want very useful and ergonomic space for eating and doing 'sit down' things. I feel the bed space should be as flexible as possible, with at least some possibility of using it as work or leisure space. In the standard 'stand up' vans, if you can configure the bed as double use space, it helps a lot. When people buy 38 foot fivers with double slides they are buying a lot of seating and open space, but it's too much to haul down the road.
I felt the animals were very supportive of your project. It's just an exceptional design.
Very helpful pets!😉❤
Your Cat was biting you because, Cats don't like change !!!
A foldable stadium chair is great in vans for back support if you're working from the edge of your bed !
I completely agree!!
@@redsloane879- Yes, and they are so willing to help too aren't they??
👍😀 turned out nice
Love you pets,so calm and well behaved 👍
