Furniture doesn't fit in New Redwoods

We went to bus Supply in McComb, Mississippi yesterday to see the 2016 38GK. I have Lazy boys in my 2013 RW 36FB that will not fit the new Redwood's with the cabinets behind the kitchen table. It is a double recliner with a center console and is 77" long. I like the table rotates better. Gives you more room in the living room.

Also found that the back glass window is a lot smaller on the new RW.

Did they change the rear clip again, or has the back window been smaller since the last rear clip change when they went to the rear storage?

Good observation Buddy! I like the new clip but didn't know the window got smaller. These are 2 36RLs 2014 and 2015

But yours looks like the newer rear clip design, but the larger window? Looks like maybe the smaller window wasn't related to the clip redesign.

Yep, I do not think they changed the rear clip, just made the cutout / window smaller, you are right ours is the newer style but has the large window.
Probably saved a few $$

my 2013 is the large window like the 2014. Most everywhere you go the scenic view is out the back window. That's why I don't like the rear entertainment
or class A diesel pushers.

I believe the smaller window adds more structural integrity to the back of the coach.

That could be, but I've never heard of any issues with the structure back there. I've cut into the rear clip to install a camera, and I dare say the window is probably stronger than the fiberglass clip Maybe they just had trouble with the clip holding the larger window, although I hadn't heard of it.

Maybe Redwood could enlighten us as to the reason for the change?

Currently looking at the rear of 3-4 Heartlands & all have the smaller rear windows, Thor probably got a truck load discount.

We took the old couch and love seats out of the RW yesterday and cleaned the carpets and sprayed Scotchgard today. Our Lazy boy recliner with console and couch with recliners will be installed Friday. All recliner are push button and wall hugger's. They are very comfortable, can't wait, I will have them for my Bryson City, North Carolina trip in October.
