Mini queen bed problem and any custom ideas

So I bought a mallard m33 2017. I hate the bed,to small and not comfy at all. Any custom ideas on this. Any custom ideas in general to make living more enjoyable

Update,
It's to short so I sleep diagnol, it's also not comfortable at all. So an extended. Build one? Can you buy one? With the extender it's a normal queen then?
  • need more info. too short? too narrow? too soft? too hard? too thick? be specific and maybe we can give you some ideas.
  • The first thing we did when we bought our TT last Fall was to order a new bed. Basically it was the most expensive one that Camping World had but we have been very happy with it. When we were shopping for our TT we knew from the get go that the mattress was not good. When we went to pick up the camper we had them take the mattress out before taking it home. We didn't want to deal with getting rid of it.
  • Mattress Factory. You can go in look at and try the samples they have and then order a custom size. My 30" by 78" was 280.00. Well worth it.
  • If it's too short and there is open space at the foot, you could extend the base and put on a full length mattress.
  • I added a regular queen mattress on top of the existing 4 inch thick short queen foam mattress that came with the trailer. The bed was a "walk around" and I still had enough room to scoot around the foot of the bed. The front of the trailer slopes up from the bottom and down from the top so the mattress overhung the front of the four inch foam mattress slightly so I didn't lose as much room at the foot of the bed in order to get around the bed.

    I don't really need the queen mattress lengths but I went with a full-size because I still needed the width and didn't have to buy special sheets.
  • I cut out a new peice of plywood and installed and put in a regular queen. I left the stock torture device they call a mattress at the dealer.
