Short queen mattress topper

[Redfox458]

Looking to upgrade the stock "pad" of a mattress in my Springdale. Can't afford a brand new mattress so I was thinking this: http://www.campingworld.com/shopping/item/perfect-harmony-mattress-topper-short-queen/60993

Has anybody used anything like this? I'd like to sleep comfortably instead of waking up in extreme pain every 5 minutes. I searched the forum and didn't find anything overly helpful. Thanks!!

We have a matt.topper from Sam's Club I did cut it down works great cost was about $50.00 made a great improvement for sleeping it is a memory foam with a jell foam and is cool used it a year now and still holding up great. Some extra weight I did not open the box till on the bed that was a good thing as it is a bear to move about. Bushman:Dn

Redfox,

There's several previous discussions on the forum about adding a mattress topper (memory foam).

Depending on what type, thickness & density you want, they can usually be purchased at retail stores like
WalMart, Target, Costco, Sam's Club, etc; plus you can find them online at places like Overstock too.

Hint: a typical memory foam topper can be cut with an electric knife. ;)

I did the same. Purchased the memory foam first, then added the pillow top so use both. It is real comfortable now. My dealer put wheels under the bed so the slide doesn't run on the carpet because he said the extra weight might be a problem. We needed the wheels anyway. I would totally recommend them if you have a bed slide.

My wife found a memory foam topper (1 1/2" thick) that's cool and comfy. It made a world of difference. She just covered it with a regular mattress cover; and we sleep a lot better. See Pic for brand.

I purchased a 3" gel/memory foam topper from Costco. I don't recall the brand, but chose a higher quality thinking, if it didn't work in the RV, we would use it on our home mattress. The topper has a removable cover that can be laundered.

Our bed is a queen, but 6" shorter than regular. It is configured to slide 6" away from the headboard, when sleeping, using the decorative bolsters to fill the gap where your pillows sit. Despite my husband being over six-foot, we find we don't need to do this. I thought I might trim the topper to fit, but then the cover would be too big. Left the foam pad long and it makes the mattress slightly longer with a bit of a sag at the bottom (just not solid to sit on, but works for us). And, regular queen sheets now fit the bed!

We love the topper. Makes the bed as comfortable as the pillow top in the house. Definitely worth the cost (I believe it was around $100) to get a good quality one and still less expensive than an upgraded, custom mattress, IMO.

This is what we bought for our 195 RB. It's the best addition we did. Soooooo much more confortable. Great product at a good price.

I bought a memory foam topper from overstock.com, and when that wasn't enough slabs of 2" high density foam from Joann Fabrics when it was on sale for half off. The mattress pad keeps it all together, deep pocket sheets cover the whole thing fine. Kinda kludged together, but at least we were able to buy a layer at a time while we determined how much help the stock mattress needed.

Exactly what I was looking for! I think I'll try this first. Call me lazy, but if its less work then I'm in. I like the ideas of the other toppers, with my model trailer I have a tv stand at the foot of the bed, not much room to move around. With my luck buying a topper for a regular size mattress then cutting it down, it'd fall apart or somehow blow up in my face, then good luck returning it!

Purchased the same topper from Camping World. It improved the overall comfort of the original mattress (2012 Outback 301BQ). No cutting required, unroll, wait for 24 hrs and install.

We wanted the highest quality Made in the USA products for our bedding. We bought a mattress topper, sheets and mattress pad from AB Lifestyles of South Carolina. The mattress pad is very soft and very padded and does not have the hard fiberglass sides as the cheap imports. The bottom sheet is fitted at the foot of the bed. We have a foam mattress at home so this topper gives that same comfort while camping.

I looked your camper up in your profile and see you have a Bunk House.

We have Bunk beds in ours along with a short queen.

We bought two queen size 3" memory foam mattress toppers at Sam's Club for $99 each. I cut the end off the short queen to fit and took the second one and marked it up with a magic marker after measuring the bunks. Took a little off at the bottom and some off the side and two perfectly fit pads for the bunks. All the trimmings went into the dogs zippered bed and now we all sleep like babies.

Those things they push off as a mattress ought to be outlawed as cruel and unusual torture devices. I think I'd rather be water boarded than sleep one more night on those ;-)

Agreed! Not sure why they even call them "mattresses".
