We were hoping the couch would fit in front of that back window.
Our couch has such a puffy back that when you sit, it pushes you forward. I have a big "seat" so it takes a lot for me to be pushed. Forget laying down on it.
The storage is terrific. Extra sheets, towels and the attachments for the central vac.
I don't like this desk. Did my other one. I wish it was straight with drawers. I sit at the dining table with my computer. Just the right height. Maybe a different chair at the desk would work better?????? I do have two nice "junk" drawers.
Got to look for file folders for those drawers.

Carol,
First of all it wasn't made to be in front of the rear window. You should have realized that when you first looked at the 3485 as it is much to big to fit there.
At over 300#s No one on this forum has a bigger "seat" than I and I quite often find myself sitting on the sofa rather than my recliner. As I had said to you at the NE rally I have no idea what you are referring to when you say the backs are "puffy" to me they are very comfy.
At 6' I have to agree with trying to sleep on it as a sofa but as a bed it is more comfortable than the bed in the bedroom.
As far as the desk, mine works fine. It is where my computer sits and to my right sits a full size HP printer, copier scanner. It does have 2 drawers. In the top drawer I keep a small plastic 3 drawer container where I keep small stuff such as pens, pencils, tape, paper clips etc. This 3 drawer container is small enough to allow me to also keep 2 legal pads and some brochures. The bottom drawer contains a modified PendaFlex rack with the folders containing all my owners manuals for both the Monty and the TV. I use one of the dining chairs as my desk chair.
As Lorraine also has a computer she uses the dining table as her work area but on occasion she will have to use my 'puter at my desk and she notices no real difference in the two. Her only real complaint has to do with the table base. The pedestal legs get in the way of her feet while sitting.
I measured the height of the dining table at 28 1/2". The desk measures at 29 1/2" high.
