Thats ideal Griff, do you by any chance live near an IKEA? I do not have one within 100 miles of me. Just a thought but a few posted on ebay wouldn't go amiss??
Did you ever receive a set of replacement feet? We are still waiting for ours. I did speak to Chris up at Black Country Caravans, where we bought our Olympe from, and he said he was still waiting for a bulk order...
Also, would love to know it you managed to get a gas strut design implemented. It would make a world of difference to the raising and lowering particularly....
I did get the new grey bed leg feet from Camperlands. Black Country Caravans were awaiting a supply from Trigano.
I decided in the end not to place gas struts on the beds because after discussing it with Trigano they said it could be done but, wouldn`t recommend it as it involved two beds whereas their other models with gas struts only involved one bed.
If you have a box on the "A" frame then the beds are quite awkward to lift. I have a very large box on the front but, I have adapted it so I can remove it from the "A" in 5 minutes, which allows me full access to both beds.
I have placed casters on the kitchen so moving it now is a dream as you just push it around.
I will be going to Ikea in the next couple of weeks so if you want I will get you a cutlery tray and send it down to you. It would only cost you the postage on top of the 49p, which I would have thought would only be about a £1 ish.
Griff that would be smashing - thanks. Can you let me have an email and we can swap addresses.
Yep, we have the large trigano box and it does get in the way - found it worst when trying to go over the tipping point to open out, wife is a bit shorter than I and so to open up it is a case of me raising the beds and then running around to catch! will probably look at a strap arrangement in that case so I can push the beds over tipping point from the front without needing to be there at the side to catch it too!
