I bought a new 2020 Grand Design Solitude and the mattress is with out a doubt the worst ever. It is a Michiana Evergreen 72x80, so called RV King. After a few weeks it has 2 depressions where we sleep. I first thought a topper might help, but after a couple more weeks, I knew it never would.If these depressions were in your back yard, it would look like 2 bodies are buried there.I want to buy a new mattress but have no clue what is a good brand, RV King 72x80 so you can't buy them just anywhere. I don't want to buy the same thing only under a different name. Anyone else had the same problem & what did you buy.

Lots of ways to buy an RV Mattress online. We bought one from mattress insider. Their customer service was the best. Got their top of the line memory foam mattress but it was too soft, donated it to a local charity and got their latex mattress. Much more firm. Lots of people talk about memory foam or adding a topper, but to me that just makes them too soft. I need firmness due to my aging back. My point, any reputable company will offer a sleep guarantee and money back so look for that in your search.

Hands down the best mattress we have ever used at home or on the RV is made by Verlo.com. If you want the 2nd best mattress read the other responses.BTW did you get a good deal on the price of the RV?

Are you sure it’s 80? I’ve seen RV Kings at 75. https://www.sleepdogmattress.com/products/bigdawg-mattress

Thanks for the reply's.My mattress size is 72x80. Verlo & Sleep Dog does not make a 72x80.Not sure why the RV industry has so many different sizes of mattresses. They must make the rig, then have someone like Michiana make a cheap mattress to fit. Mattress Insider does make a 72x80, so thanks for your post Thermoguy. I want the same type firm mattress you talk about & not necessarily the top of the line. My back is aging as well. Insider makes 3 different mattresses in the 72x80 size.Sedona their entry level & 5.5 inches thickAspen with 6" or 8" or 10" thickScarsdale Luxury with 9" thickDo you recall what thickness you got. I'm going to get one & am somewhat gun shy and trying to eliminate the step of returning it or taking it to a local charity for a refund. Thanks for your help....

We bought a mattress from Brooklyn RV Bedding and we absolutely LOVE IT!!! It sleeps as good if not better than our expensive Tempur-Pedic at home.

We never keep the mattress that came with the trailer. We ALWAYS bought a top of the line mattress like the one we sleep on at home. The Jayco's we have purchased always have accepted a queen size residential one. They just fit but they fit. We have never had a cheap one and those memory foam ones in our opinion are junk compared to a premium one. Just saying at 6' 3" and with a not so good back I don't discount what I sleep on several months of the year!!

I'm curious about this as well.

We will need to measure, but ours has a king bed and it's very, very hard. I usually prefer a firmer mattress and it's even too hard for me.

I don't know if we want to go for standard king size mattress. Weight is a concern, because our tongue weight is already pretty high.

I'll follow this thread and see what options there are.

A full king is 76x80

Now this is specific to west Detroit, MI Telegraph 5 mile area but save for the name it's king of Generic.

There is a business on the east side of Telly I think between 5 and 6 (north of 6 is the last place you want to go on that side of the road, Trust me (Cemetery in case you don't get the joke) Tri-County matress Factory.

They can custom make any size, shape, thickness, firmness you want.

Many major cities have companies like that There is one near Flint, MI as well but I've never dealt with 'em.

We have this one in our RV and a full king at home and love them both. We got them on Amazon and have had the 12" one in our RV for 4 years and no sign of breaking down.
