In need of comfy bed
We are just getting ready to embark on full time living in our brand new Grand Design Reflection 5th wheel. We purchased a memory foam topper for our bed. We did this in our previous travel trailer and it made the bed very comfy. This time it has not done the trick. The topper is 4". Was thinking of adding another topper.
Has anybody done this or have any suggestions?

We tried a topper on the factory mattress. Worked for a bit but then it just kept getting worse and worse. I would put the money towards a new decent mattress myself.

Thanks for the suggestion. We've thought about that but we are concerned about the weight of a new mattress may put us over and we've heard mattresses are extremely hard to get in the rig. Some people have actually cut them in half in order to get them in the rig. Not wanting to take that on right now.

We put a Sleep Number mattress in. Actually lighter that the stock mattress and MUCH more comfortable. We’d tried a 4” topper on the stock mattress for a few months then gave up on that. YMMV!

We also tried a topper, it was ok at first, then the mattress had to go. We went with a 9" memory foam mattress from Amazon, very comfy.

We started with factory mattress and foam toppers. Didn’t work. Then tried this one from Amazon.

In keeping with tradition, I loved it wife hated it. Then tried it with the toppers and that got us closer but she’s still not happy with it yet.2016 Grand Design Reflection 313RLTS

At home, we've been sleeping on a sleep number for years. We tried toppers, and they were not comfortable for long term.
So, the first thing we bought was a sleep number for the RV.
IMHO, it's the only way to go. [emoji16]

I ordered this mattress as soon as I knew we were making a purchase.

It comes shipped in a box that you can get inside (fairly heavy but doeable), then it expands after you open it up.
It's our second one (previous TT was a RV queen size so I had to leave it in the trade in).
