We do not recommend the use of a regular thickness inner spring mattress with our campers. The maximum limit of a standard trailer is 120mm thick. The current mattress is 80mm so this doesn’t leave a lot of leeway. When folding the camper closed – this will create a lot of pressure and can lead to the camper not closing properly – This can lead to water getting inside your camper when closed. (Nobody likes a wet bed!)
Having said this – you do have options.
1) As a first step – try using a good quality mattress topper, we find this works well and is a good option for most customers.
2) You can use good quality inflatable mattresses. They have come a long way over the years – and current ones are very comfortable to sleep on – and since you can deflate them – thickness is not an issue.
3) Use a better-quality foam mattress. Foam mattresses come in a number of thicknesses and qualities. You can buy high quality memory foam mattresses from places like Clark Rubber.
4) After some research we have found that there are a few mattress manufacturers in Australia who do make a custom camper trailer pocket spring mattress which are nearly as good as a home mattress. But they are expensive. So it is worth calling around to see who currently has the best price.
