Key Features of the Meridian:

• BechMark - Eliminate Pain in the You-Know-Where. Presenting the dinette, reconsidered: the BenchMark full comfort dinette. In place of the customary slab of foam, its seats feature innerspring construction like that found in fine furniture. The result is exceptionally comfortable dining - and since the BenchMark converts instantly from a dinette to a comfortable bed - exceptionally comfortable sleeping as well. And unlike ordinary dinettes that use side doors or drawers for storage, the BenchMark seats tilt up, providing easy access to the storage underneath (as well as 40% more storage than a similar dinette with side-drawer access). Dining, sleeping or storing, the BenchMark full comfort dinette leaves you sitting pretty.
  
  
• BechMark Extendable Dinette - Seat the entire family and even some guests in the extendable dinette. When retracted, the dinette seats four people. A table leaf folds out to create comfortable seating for six people. Two matching folding chairs are provided for use when the table is extended. At night, the table easily converts into additional sleeping space. The linens can be stored under the bench seats, which flip up for easy access.
  
  
• Big Shower - It's BIG, Really BIG - The BIG shower from Winnebago Industries lives up to its name. In fact, it might be an understatement. The BIG shower measures an expansive 36" x 36", dwarfing most traditional RV showers. Enjoy a refreshing rinse in the BIG shower and you will never look at RV showers the same way again.
