Time to replace the queen mattress in my TC.
Any recommendations? |

We purchased one of those memory foam ones on line. So far so good and we have had it about two years.

Costo had a good selection as well. There is a trick to getting the old one out and a new one in with very little hassle..
Roll the old one up and secure it (rolled up) with either tarp straps or ratchet straps and take it out rolled up, it's fits through the door much easier that way and do the same for the new one, getting it in.... That is the easiest way and the least amount of hassle. |

I took my old one out with the ratchet straps. If you go with the memory foam it comes rolled up and vacuum packed so you can unwrap it inside the camper and let it expand right there on the bed.

Thanks. Ordered a memory foam online. Needed 2" narrower then a standard queen in the AF. Old one out, will unpack new one in place.

I actually lucked out with a good mattress in out new TC. My old/sold lance had a terrible mattress. I think it was a reject that Lance bought cheap. Had a lump in the middle.

I got this. $114.73 shipped it's been great, and light too. I must have got it on sale, just looked it's $200 now. |
