A sneak peek at the best RV mattresses of 2022:
What size is an RV mattress?
What makes an RV mattress different from a typical mattress is the size. RVs only have so much space, and many campers are designed with less space in the bed area, making every square inch valuable. Since every RV model is different, there are a ton of RV mattress sizes on the market.
While some RVs can fit the standard twin, full, queen, or king sizes, many mattress companies also offer RV twin, RV full, RV queen, and RV king sizes. RV sizes tend to be more narrow than typical mattresses, but the exact dimensions can vary, depending on the brand. Most companies share exact dimensions on their websites for shoppers.
Why is it important to have the right mattress in your RV?
Not only is it important that your mattress fits into the bed frame included in your camper, but weight is an important consideration, too. If you're a seasoned camper, you know keeping your trailer at a reasonable weight is key to being able to haul it with your vehicle. It's important to take into account the weight of your new mattress in the gross vehicle weight, which is why lighter and thinner models are usually better.
What to look for in an RV mattress?
The key determination when looking for an RV mattress is that it's suitable for your specific camper. Weight, size, and mattress type are all important considerations. Many RV mattresses are either made from foam or a combination of foam and coil (hybrid).
Darley explains that foam mattresses can hold heat more than other materials. Her recommendation? Invest in a fiber topper to stay cool, or consider a latex or hybrid mattress, as these materials tend to do a better job with temperature regulation. Latex is a more eco-friendly choice, too, which is a big plus in our books.
As with any mattress, it's important to look for one that's made from high-quality materials.
