Before deciding to reupholster ours, I thought about how to use regular home style sofas in the slides. Keep in mind I never tried this so I don't know if it will work or if it will be visually pleasing, and I'm struggling to describe the following.
The problem to solve is the depth of the new sofas, which will likely overhang the front edge of the slideouts. I think you could use a 1x6 board under each side, screwed to the slide, on top of which the sofa can rest, with its feet, if any, removed. The ends of the boards could be recessed a bit to not show. The existing 6" high kick plates that are permanently mounted to the floor over which the slides move, could be moved out a bit, and the electrical wires hidden behind them.
