I have a Sportsmobile camper that > I put Adventurer cabinets in, so they both sound familiar! Just thought I would mention one thing that might help. The Safare has a unique (as far as I have seen) folding bed arrangement. Instead of a bench across the rear that slides out into a bed, the Safare has two small permanent benches on either side over the wheelwells, and the bed is a U-shaped contraption with two piano hinges that folds out and lays on the seats. I really like this setup because you can leave your bedding in place and just fold the bed over on itself. Takes about 10 seconds to put the bed away in the morning, and another 10 seconds to set it up at night. Here's a really bad ascii of the bed arrangement (side view) B = pillow Q = mattress
