Mattress

Has anyone replaced their mattress? Mine is simply too soft and after just a couple of years sinks in the middle. Any tips on a new mattress or firm topper for this one?
Thanks!

I also bought a memory foam mattress from Amazon. I went with a 6 inch model as I only RV about 6 times per year. But now those 6 times per year are so much more comfortable!

I replaced mine with a new queen size bought from a local furniture shop

Foam topper from Wally World here. 4" memory foam, $100, and it's made all the difference. We "slept" (and I use that term loosely) on the original mattress for exactly one night.

When the original mattress underneath begins to lose its shape and cushion, I'll replace the whole kit with at least 8" of memory foam. Amazon and others on the interweb have some pretty good deals, and you can even get them in the correct size (if your trailer has a "short" queen like mine).

I replaced ours without even sleeping on the one that came with it. We bought an 8" foam at Sam's club for 389.00. I sleep great on it.

Memory foam and my back don't get along so I replaced my original mattress with a Sleep Number RV Premier Bed - Radius Cut, King. This was almost 5 years ago and it was the best investment I have ever made.

The funny thing is originally my "sleep number" was 45, then 50 felt better for a couple of years and now I'm at 65. Who knows what is down the road, but I can adjust to it - just press the button.

X2 with UPCamper. I extended the plywood and added legs to support the extra length. A little tight getting around the end of the bed but we manage. The comfort of the full length residential type mattress is well worth any other inconveniences created.

Have you had any issues with the sleep number and changes in altitude? I read somewhere that that can be an issue.

On my sleep number it adjusts to it set value when power is applied.
I too keep playing around with the number depending on my back.
