Prior to the recall I had installed receptacle covers purchased at Home Depot and the same as I have on our home exterior outlets. I was concerned about shifting lawn chairs and other stuff in that area and, in addition, had read another RW owner's solution posted on this site at that time using the covers from HD. I use the cover guard from Redwood for holding our TV remote located in the "tool box" storage area adjacent to the entrance door. I installed a 25" TV in that space along with a duplex 120 VAC outlet and cable connection box plate.

Ya, I originally did that, based on advice from the Dealer when we did the PDI. They must have had some issues before. I took them back off when I got the recall cover, as it was a little cleaner and compact.

Was at the coach yesterday and took some pictures. I use a 20" x90" MorRyde Slide Tray, a bunch of plastic tubs and a section of 18" Storage Shelves on the back wall. So far it's the best setup I've come up with.
I've attached a few pictures.

I like the tray! But, how much did it weigh? My guess is that they are pretty heavy?

Did I say, NICE Tray!

The tray weighs about 70 lbs, can hold 600 lbs and move in and out with one hand. Really makes the whole basement much more accessible

Have you found a use for the space under it?

Yes, fishing rods, flags and poles, spare plumbing runs, and anything long, and less than 3" high

I can also store the pole for my cell booster antenna and some pieces of ply wood on either side without interfering with the slide operation.

Ken - sorry to go off topic but a quick question. I've been looking at the Wilson Engineering We Boost cell antenna. What do you use ?

I have no idea why they're sideways. Only the iPad knows ........

That seems to be an issue when directly uploaded pictures taking on an i-device in landscape mode.

There is a new update to the forum software which I want to apply and am hoping it will resolve this and a couple of other nagging issues, but as you may have noticed the updated failed miserably a few days ago so I'm proceeding with caution trying to figure out why.

Try portrait mode pictures from the iPad and you may have better results.
