Hide a bed with air

Just brought our 30.5BHLT home. After researching every floorplan and every manufacturer, we are back to Jayco. Had a really good experience with our 2005 251RLS. Never used the hide a bed with air mattress before. Got a good tip about using a moving mat under to prevent leaks, but would like to know what anyone uses on top? Sleeping bag, sheets? What size is the air mattress for sheet purchase, as I cannot find it on the web site. Would like suggestions, thank you!

Welcome to the Jayco Owners Forum MareBK! I don't have a hide-a-bed, but congrats on the 5'er!

Good idea putting air mattress on floor, will prevent puncture too. What size sheets do you use?

Ok, I know I'm getting old. When I first saw the title of this thread, I thought it was about concealing a place to sleep using air.

LOL Lady Fitzgerald; sounds like color of hair rather than age.

Would like to hear what you think about you 30.5 BHLT. We got ours in June and will FINALLY be taking our first trip this weekend. We are very excited, but a little nervous after reading about all the problems folks are having with their new Jaycos.

I must be the exception because I haven't had any issues with my 5'er since I moved in a little over a year ago (has it been that long already?). I did have a couple of the recessed light fixture lens fall out on my second trip, but I think they just weren't installed all the way initially, because I have made several more trips since then and no more problems.
All of my main systems were and are working perfectly.

Keeping my fingers crossed after a year of full timing.
