Front Loft (for 2021, 2022 Winnebago REVEL)

Now you can finally sleep more than 2 people in your REVEL!

Set up the foldable Front Loft in minutes and use the extra space it provides to sleep, as a spot to hang out or as temporary shelf for all your sweet gear. The REVEL Front Loft can also be set up in different sizes, so you can still use the passenger seat while having additional space for storage.

And the best part...it folds up and stores under the dinette seat when it's not needed.

About this item:

• The REVEL Front Loft is a foldable platform that suspends from 6 straps.
• When set up, the maximum size of the Front Loft is 24" wide by 59" long (distance from window to window is 5'11"). The weight is limited to170 lbs.
• With the appropriate size sleeping pad (see "Recommendation!" below), most everyone can find a good night sleep on it. 
• There are approx. 26" of space between the Front Loft and the overhead shelf.
• The platform can also be set up only partially unfolded. In it's smallest size, it is 16" wide by 31" long.
• The Front Loft itself only weighs 17 lbs. and due to its patent pending design is easy to set up and then also store away.
• When not in use, the folded up Front Loft (it measures 16" x 31" and is only about 2" thick) stores under the dinette seat . You have to take out the felt covered pad (like Winnebago describes in the user manual to check the glycol tank) and instead replace it with the provided tray. You can still store the Winnebago kitchen countertop extension in the bench seat as well.

Does it require complicated installation?

• No. In fact, it's very easy. However, before the first use you have to install 3 straps permanently. No need to drill holes, you'll mount these to the bolts above the overhead shelf that are already in your van.
• No tools are required for the other straps. You'll put those up when you set up the platform and take them down when the platform goes back into storage.
• You need a Philipps screwdriver to remove the felt pad from inside the dinette seat, as it is required to remove this pad in order to be able to store the Front Loft in it.

What's in the box?

• All parts (Front Loft, tray in dinette seat, straps, mounting hardware)
• A topper is not in the box (read the "Recommendation!" section next)

Recommendation!

• The platform does not come with a sleeping pad. 
• We recommend the REI Co-op "Camp Bed Self-Inflating Sleeping Pad" as a sleeping pad (REI item #148193, Regular size). We like that it rolls up compact and can be stored in the overhead shelf towards the front. It's longer than the Front Loft, so you'll fold the end by where you have your pillow down between the Front Loft and the van's driver or passenger door.

Will it fit a 2023 Revel?

• Winnebago changed the plumbing under the bench seat in some 2023 models, which won't allow the folded up Front Loft to be stored there. If you're handy, you can move the plumbing to make it work. Otherwise you can store the Front Loft on top of the overhead shelf. Reach out to info@revelbetter.com and we can explain more or walk you through the process.
  
• The Front Loft itself can still be set up in the cab area in the 2023 Revel.
