QUEEN BED WITH ROUNDED CORNERS

Our 2015 32 ft Forest River Forester cant keep sheets on it. Is there a special Sheet? or would I use a king flat sheet on bottom? I did buy elastic cords with snaps to keep them on but it doesn't work. It's a Serta Queen memory foam top with 2 rounded corners on a squared off frame. I asked the dealer who sold this used RV said the previous owner must have bought it as they usually come with normal mattresses.
It is a nice mattress especially for someone who sleeps on a water bed at home!
any suggestions on what kind of sheets to use?
  • I use queen size sheet with elastic all around on our corner bed, then put our travel sack which has sheets inside on top. Looks like a bedspread. But I have just used the all elastic queen , with a regular top sheet.
  • I understand this sheet issue is solved to OP's satisfaction without any spikes.
  • Yes. Trava sac way to go or its modern equivalent. You won't have to torque your back making the bed and looks like a bed spread
  • We have Trav Sacs, two large sleeping bags zipped together. No need to make bed. Not sure if they are still available.
  • WOW !! Thank you accsys I bought 2 snap ones at walmart didnt even think amazon would have something like this, thank you!
  • Thank you Charles for info,
    Had to run out in dark to look 3051s but the bed frame is squared off.
  • Many RV's with a corner bed use a mattress with a chopped offed or rounded corners for better access or room. There is an outfit in South Carolina who custom makes sheets for RV's.

    Do not believe what the dealer tells you, they probably don't know if the mattresses is original or not, and are merely seeking to give you an answer, right or wrong. Looking at the brochure for yours, it appears that some floorplans do have rounded corners at the foot of the bed, while others have squared off corners.

    You don't say exactly which model you have, but the 3171DS, the 3051S, and the 2861DS all appear to have the rounded corners, while the 3101SS and the 3011DS both appear to have the squared corners.
