Mattress recomendations

Hi all, just bought my first RV, will be using it as a home for a year while my house is built. I was wondering if you could advise me on getting a mattress. The one that came with the camper is 48" x 75", but really thin, about 4". It's not very comfortable.

Would I be better off with a Memory Foam mattress? I am looking at this one. What do you think? Thanks!

    The one in our 5er is either 12 or 14" thick. Sleeps great, I prefer it over our waterbed. We had to find deep pocket sheets for it.

    We also use the mattress that came with the RV and then put a foam topper on it. It is VERY comfortable! Here is the topper we used:

    We purchased it on Amazon.

    The mattress that came in the TT we had sucked. We put a foam topper on it..worked a lot better. The Class C we have now came with a Denver mattress. We love it. Like it better than the memory foam one we have at home.

    Reporting back on this mattress. It arrived, we removed it from the packaging and it expanded to full size. It is a perfect fit for the Keystone Springdale bottom bunk. The mattress is VERY comfortable, I love it. Thanks to all for your help.

    You can get a 4" memory foam topper for that mattress, for less than $200, if you don't want to pay for a full mattress.

    Two ideas: search this Forum for `mattress' and/or go to www.verlo.com
