36FL owners

Anybody found a good way to keep the kitchen chairs with the table during travel? Tried the pinching the seat with the leaf of the table but don't work to well.

Our chairs have not moved so far, everything stays put pretty good when we travel

I do like our flooring, was not sure at first since it is not shiny, kind of matte finish, but now that we have been in it for a while, it is not slippery when we come in out of the rain and everything stays put pretty good during travel.

Our table has a cheesy little L-shaped bracket that slides out from under the table and hooks to a bracket screwed in the wall, then the leafs fold down pinching the chairs down to the floor. It seems like a after thought.

We put the chairs in the living room between the 2 slides and lay the table on its side on a non-skid mat.

Used to leave the table upright and attached with the bracket, but one day it ripped the trim off the window. Works well on the floor pushed up to the cupboard (with padding).

That's what I was worried about, it ripping the trim off or the chairs beating up the cabinets I did like you last time and put the chairs up between the front slides. Then put that rubber stuff that goes in cabinets on the floor and flipped the table over and put it on that, it stayed put but I don't think to many people want to flip that table over..

Our chairs are not a problem, but the light over the table is. Every time we move the bottom brass comes off the light. Thankfully not the glass or it would be broken. We find it on the floor somewhere!

Ours move very little and we do use the "hook" under the table when we travel.

our light knob just backs off a bit and after I found it on the floor once - I put a dab of clear silicone and tightened it hand (but HAND) tight...

the table chairs never move on our 38gk... now the recliners WILL dance a bit !
and don't ask about the sink covers on the floor one time

We put our chair forward as far as we can and move the table forward on it's hook and now nothing moves. Don't forget it is very nasty back there when we move down the road. At least I have never had the chairs end up in the living room

We use the "soft" bungee cords to wrap around the two chairs. The mass of both seems to keep them in place fairly well.

We had the same issue with the light bottom trim piece coming off while traveling. Last year, I decided to fix that issue. I went to Lowe's hardware area and purchased a rubber washer to put on there to tighten that decorative knob against and it hasn't come off since.
