- DurbExplorerAmazon does a good job describing mattresses and usually specifies the firmness rating and how hot it sleeps. We chose a Lucid latex foam hybrid mattress (pocketed inner springs, foam top) as memory foam sleeps too hot for us. It shipped rolled up and compressed so was easy to get into the trailer, albeit heavy. We like the mattress so much that we replaced the Sleep Number king in our house with the same mattress. Much improved sleep and no transitions to the trailer.

Sleep Number works good for us.
2X here for the both of us too. It's also light in weight vs other types. We like it better than the thick latex foam mattress we had in the sticks and bricks. If you're over a setting of 30, you need to reduce pressures at higher altitudes. - spoon059Explorer IIBe careful about cheap memory foam mattresses. We bought a cheap one 5 years ago and it is terrible. Just got back from a 24 day trip and the cheapo mattress is getting replaced before I spend another night in that camper. I'll be replacing it with a higher quality memory foam. We have a nice memory foam in our house and we love it.
- bpoundsNomadWe replaced our RV mattress with a solid memory foam, about 10" thick. Cut to whatever size we wanted, which for us was RV Queen.
Most decent size towns will have a custom mattress company. Probably several. You might be surprised at what they can do for you locally. Ours was more than helpful. We pulled the trailer over to them and they installed and removed the old one for us. - wa8yxmExplorer IIIMany RV companies have an aggrement with one or another supplier.
Had my Class A came with a Standard size matress I'd have had a host of options. but since I have a "Short Queen" (Wide as a queen but length of a full) my options were limited. - jdc1Explorer IIhttps://www.amazon.com/Furniture/b/?ie=UTF8&node=1063306&ref_=sv_hg_5

This is General. People often post questions about their RV in that particular forum.
Why would a different RV brand prefer a different mattress brand? - cpaulsenExplorerOur last 2 5ver.....we use a Serta iComfort. One was a queen and now a king in current one.
- Pheonix87ExplorerI don't know what fit you need (size, you get it). But I recommend a mattress that either has a bamboo cover or one of its component layers is bamboo charcoal memory foam (there's quite a vast selection that can help you here https://popular.reviews/best-bamboo-mattresses/). It's much better when it comes to dust mite resistance and provides a hypoallergenic surface to sleep on. I turned to bamboo when it comes to my home bed and the bed in my RV for about 3 years now and I'm definitely not going back ever.

Sleep Number hands down!!!
We agree again.
I gotta agree the Sleep Number is a great way to go due to the adjustability. Pricey though!
