Making beds a little more comfortable
Anyone tried any bed covers - pillowtop or anything that will make them a little more comfortable? Any recommendations.
I am used to a softer bed, so these are a little firm for me.

I have a 2" memory foam topper and it made all the difference in the world for me.

Do you find memory foam to make you hot? That is what I have heard in the past.

We actually have a feather bed topper on ours. It makes a big difference.

We have topper from Costco. We don't have issues with being too hot. But it makes for a comfy slumber. Hope this helps

I have not found it to be hot. I also have a mattress pad and really nice sheets. We like it cool so our ac is generally cranked and we keep the fan set to on so it blows on us all night.

I must be the odd one out, but I like the mattresses. I prefer a firm mattress to a soft one.

When the beds are in, where do you store the toppers.
Also when you guys fold in the rear bed, does it seem tighter than the front bed?
Only been out once so just curious.

Me too.
I note in your signature you have an X17Z A. What does the "A" denote?

The rears bed is tighter than the front. We keep all of our bedding in our wardrobe closet, but we have the 23b, which has tons of inside storage. I think you could keep it on the bed.

You are not the only one, Hubby and I like the mattress, but I think in time after many uses a topper will be needed

Matteress pad and a foam topper,soooooooooooo comfy. Just as a fyi there seams to be 2 kinds of foam matteress, one will hold the heat from your body and one won't, i don't know the difference but I like the cool one. Larry
