Replacement mattress

Hi all,
Any recommendations for where to buy a replacement mattress for a motorhome?
  • You can order a memory foam mattress from Amazon, they have several short queens. Prices from about $200-359.
    We bought a standard queen for the house and the wife and I love it!

    We ordered our 5th wheel and eliminated the mattress so we could add our own. Just make sure that your replacement mattress is not so heavy that you cannot lift up your bed. We had to replace our lifts because even though it was a foam mattress, it was pretty darned heavy.


    An FYI on the lifts. Most of the time you can just re-position the lifts slightly closer to the bed platform hinge to hold the increased mattress weight.
  • I just bought a Serenia Sleep 6" RV mattress. I a thinking I would like to use the original sleeping pad, errr, mattress, as either a mattress topper or a pad to lie between the new 6" mattress and the plywood it sits on. Is one of these options better than the other? I normally like a softer mattress, and a few reviewers mentioned this being firm. Thanks in advance!
  • lastingimpressionsfoamdotcom sells RV sized memory foam mattresses. Since we have memory foam mattresses in our sticks&bricks sleeping in the RV is just like sleeping at home. They almost always ship the next day and the mattress arrives quickly. It will be compressed but heavy. I was able to muscle it into our RV and then take off the wrapping that keeps it compressed. Love our Lasting Impressions mattress!
  • We just ordered a latex topper from SleepOnLatex.com. Gonna see how this works. Can't be worse.
