I specifically ordered the "Euro Dinette", to avoid the problem. Had the "chairs" in my Mountain Aire, & they would move, unless bungeed! The table expands & 4 adults can easily eat at the table! And, if more than 4, it's a cookout, outside!;) And under the dinette is a perfect place for the crate for our lovable "foxhound"!:)

The table & chairs are quite attractive, but I wanted the function!
 
Look inside the seat cushion. Our chairs have a hinge and the seat cushion raises. There were straps inside the seats for strapping them down.

On a side note; the small space order the chair cushion is perfect for stashing a small personal protection. If you are so inclined.
 
We use a bungee cord. Judy D
Since writing this, we have discovered that when we roll up our two 3 by 5 foot wool rugs and place them under the chairs, it solves the problem, no bungee cord needed. Judy D

I just put in an antique 4x6 oriental rug last weekend. I‘ll try that.

I have doubts that one will work, as the two between chairs cannot roll. Judy
 
My cognitive functions aren’t in gear yet this morning. “The two between the chairs cannot roll”?

OK I think I get it now. Thanks. I’ll keep that in mind.

They fit in snugly, and nothing moves
 
Since we have the couch with individual foot stools, we push the chairs under the table and the foot stools, on their side, go behind the chairs holding everything firmly in place when traveling.
 
We got this idea from another Newmar owner. When we heard about them, I thought the appearance would turn me off, but they are pretty much non visible. The chairs still slide a little, but not nearly as much as before.
