Cougar 327res Sofabed

[Jerrycuda]

We recently bought a solid, well maintained 2011 Cougar 327res fifth wheel to use while on vacation in Florida. We are pleased with everything so far but can't figure out how the J- sofa converts into the bed. There is an ottoman but we don't know if the sofa should be pulled out and the legs drop down against the wall or get lifted over and drop in front? We didn't think to ask the original owners nor can we find a video.
Can anyone help?

First, welcome to the forum!

I don't know what you are referring to as far as an ottoman. I have looked at 4 videos of that trailer and none have one. On the J sofa the "sofa" part (the main couch) is apparently a queen AIR bed that uses an air mattress - the mattress may be missing or misplaced. I have never had one (in a trailer) but assume you pull the cushions and open up the couch. Here's a link from Josh the RV Nerd that goes through the trailer a bit;

First, thank you for the welcome!
Just watched the video link you provided and other than a different colour it is the same with the J- couch. Yes, we do have the air mattress ( haven't tested it) and you'll see the ottoman centred at the bottom of the couch. It can be pulled out as an ottoman or even coffee table. Unfortunately the video doesn't show the couch to bed conversion but we'll still keep trying.

I have tried to add an attachment from the Cougar brochure showing the sofa and ottoman. It talks about couch to bed conversion but doesn't show the " how".

The brochure says to slide the ottoman under the couch then fold out the air mattress hide a bed. That would seem that you would pull the cushions out then extend the bed; it might hinge at the front or back or? They had some pretty novel ideas on couch usage about that time. I would just grab the front (or back) and lift on the sofa mechanism under the cushions and see what "gives".
