Hi Everyone. Well, after 15 years the RV-Dreams Community Forum is coming to an end. Since it began in August 2005, we've had 58 Million page views, 124,000 posts, and we've spent about $15,000 to keep this valuable resource for RVers free and open. But since we are now off the road and have settled down for the next chapter of our lives, we are taking the Forum down effective June 30, 2021. It has been a tough decision, but it is now time.


We want to thank all of our members for their participation and input over the years, and we want to especially thank those that have acted as Moderators for us during our amazing journey living and traveling in our RV and growing the RV-Dreams Family. We will be forever proud to have been founders of this Forum and to have been supported by such a wonderful community. Thank you all!!

Class Bs with a real mattress?
Permalink  

Just curious about this. So many class B models have couches that fold into very uncomfortable looking sofa beds. I know a must have for me will be a real, quality mattress. Does anyone know of any models that come with one, or can you steer me toward info on modifying a layout to accommodate one? Thatnks!

We looked at many Class Bs with my mother-in-law, since she thought they were what she wanted. None we saw had a normal mattress. There really isn't room. Class Bs are very tight inside, you might have to turn sideways to get around. A B+ is wider than a true Class B, really a small Class C, and some have slideouts and/or beds that are always beds.

Another option is to use an aero bed type mattress on the fold out couch. The aero beds are very comfortable and fold up nicely once the air is let out.

That's a great idea! I see where lots of folks also put memory foam over the couches or up in the over cab areas of rigs that have them. Anyone tried this?

The more I research the more I think I am really going to have to conquer my fear of driving something bigger and go with a small class C.
