Cabin floor, Linoleum or Carpet?

[IraRat]

Neither of us have actually slept in one of these yet, and I don't think we realize how small it is. I mean, it's not like we're going to be running LAPS in there.

They can be small, then again, they can be comfortable... depends on what you want... While I agree you probably can't run around in them, they can be plenty comfortable for sitting and sleeping...

Okay, Mike--but that's not a photo of a CUBBY! (Or else you have one heck of a wide angle lens.)

If you want simple and removable, how about three pieces of masonite 2' x 4' (for a 4' trailer) with the carpet or whatever you choose glued to each piece. They would fit snugly together, wouldn't move, and could be removed when needed for cleaning, changing colors, whatever. That would mean you don't have to finish the deck, you just plop three nicely fitting pieces of flooring in and slap the mattress down on top.

That way the tear could be used for light utility work as well, such as gathering fire wood or hauling crap to (or from) the thrift store, and you wouldn't have to worry about messing up your floor.

I have carpet in my Tourmaster. The only problem I have had is when it got wet -- bad door weatherstripping, which has been remedied. Carpet takes a long time to dry. I ended up putting a small electric heater in the cabin to make sure the carpet was completely dry. I was concerned that it would remain wet and mildew or damage the plywood underneath

Yes it is just a sheet of 5/8" plywood. Driveway sealer painted on the bottom and Vinyl flooring on top. I don't insulate my floors because I think that a 4" foam mattress is insulation enough.

Happy Trails

Well, you're right... that's not a cubby... it's my Baja Benroy... but I thought we were talking about comfort...

And no, you can't run around the table... for that you have to use my T@B.
