NEW MATTRESS!! We are very pleased...
We selected from Wayfair "Wayfair Sleep Medium Memory Foam" Queen 60x80x8 about 54 lbs about $200. It shipped UPS in a box, we opened in the trailer on the bed platform and it popped into shape and was odor-free in 2 days.
Perfect fit on the platform. Surprisingly tall off the floor with the extra 4 inches. The original mattress was 4" about 25 lbs.
WARNING hatch gas struts. When the old mattress was off the platform, I opened the under bed hatch and with no mattress weight the gas struts "hyper-extended" and would not compress so the hatch was stuck fully open.
I ordered 2 new struts from the manufacturer Lavanture Products (about $12.50 each) at the next higher weight capacity for the heavier new mattress. It was an easy switch, I unscrewed the original brackets (so I would not hyper-extend the new struts) unscrewed the old struts from the ball&socket ends and screwed the new struts in their place. When I reattached the brackets to the particle board, I made sure the hatch was only 1/2 high.

The sizes don’t look like they fit I need and 72x80 king I think. I have a tempur-pedic at home and I love it. Thinking about a Wliderness or Brooklyn mattress
