I am looking at RV mattress choices. We have the sleep number bed in our current coach. It is nice, but not over the top comfortable. Has anyone slept on the new style TempurPedic RV mattresses? I would like to know opinions on the differences. Thanks!

I love memory foam. Just plain memory foam. Not as crazy about gel as memory foam. Our new coach will have a sleep number. I have slept on them and like the option to adjust my level nightly to what my body likes and different from spouse. We went from queen to king or I would have transferred our mattress.

We have a Tempurpedic in the stick house and love it. However, those things are really heavy and I don't necessarily want that much weight on the bed platform in the coach. When we bought our current coach last year, the dealer replaced the original king mattress with a nice firm inner spring mattress and added a Woolrich topper that is filled with something like down. We like it as much as our Tempurpedic at home.

Also look at www.verlo.com where they have their one version of Tempur-pedic

Have you tried a foam "topper" for your bed? We bought a 2" memory foam topper for our TT bed, and it works great. I have always heard that people are love/hate towards full memory foam beds - they are either the best bed a person has ever used, or they can't sleep in one at all.

WE have the 3-inch memory foam toppers on our POPUP trailer beds. Also memory foam pillows... One thing I wasn't aware of before we got them is they react to cold weather. If it gets down below freezing the memory foam gets hard as a rock.We left our pillows in the back seat of the truck one real cold night and those thing were hard as a rock haha... Same thing with the memory foam bed toppers.I guess if you was sleeping in them and it got down below freezing where you was sinking down in the memory would stay that way until the temp warmed up above freezing hehe..Amazing stuff...Roy Ken

We had a Sleep Number, not that comfortable, when to a combination of springs and memory foam. It's great, just a little heavier than S/N..

We had a TempurPedic. A Tempur Cloud Supreme. We kept it about a year. The gave it away. Was the worst mattress we have EVER had. Only a $4,000 mistake. Don't make the same mistake we did. Avoid TempurPedic at all costs.

We have a Tempurpedic in on S&B and love it. It does take so time to get used to it and as others have said when its cold and is hard but will conform to you as your body warms it up. When we purchase our next fiver I will delete the mattress and have the dealer put a Tempurpedic in.

We replaced our MH mattress with a Memory foam mattress. We then got rid of the air bed we had in the S&B, for another memory foam mattress. There is no going back.

We just bought a memory foam topper for the TT mattress. We have had memory foam mattresses at home and all they end up being is 6" or more of really hard foam base with 2-3" of memory foam on top. Since the mattress is new in the TT with no dents or sagging and harder than a board, we just put a 3" memory foam topper on it. Probably got us to a similar configuration of a memory foam mattress at much less weight and cost.

Actually, our mattress at home sucks! HaHa We have a sleep number in our current RV and like it, but we have seen the new memory foam mattresses in many higher end RVs and wondered about them.
