Thanks for the info. I ordered the wanderlust 8 inch mattress.

@Rvlove 2 года назад

Hope you like it! We still love ours years later. -M

@michaelsullivan1793 2 года назад

So this seemed like an advertisment for the mattress you purchased. Glad your sleeping well Ive been researching rv matteress and checking all views. Thanks

@Rvlove 2 года назад

We have been super happy with them for many years now. Bought one for home and multiple RVs. -M

@silaslongshot941 3 года назад

Interesting details. Think I'll call 'em up and ask if they have a giant marshmallow I can put sheets on for our 'short queen' RV "mattress". As you might guess, I'm looking for super plush upgrade.

@Rvlove 3 года назад

Definitely give them a call. They can make everything fully custom, so I am confident they will be able to help you out. -M

@ABQdoubleG 7 лет назад

Wow, that's outstanding, great to know about the extra layer to prevent mold. I like the sound of the cooling layer, I have in my pillow and it is fabulous. Thanks for the information and the coupon code.

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

You're welcome - glad you found the info helpful

@dianecraig6055 7 лет назад

Excellent video - love the air flow layer and the fact that it's so much lighter. Thank you!

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

Thanks Diane - yes we love it too! Sleeping like babies :)

@JodysJourney 7 лет назад

Amazingly useful info. I'm not in the market right now but definitely pinning their website for future reference. Thanks.

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

You're welcome :)

@jeandecker4073 7 лет назад

Good to know. Thanks for sharing.

@benwatters9240 7 лет назад

I ordered one of these a few weeks ago. I will be on it in a couple of weeks. This was great for me to see.

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

It was really good to see what goes into them and why - hope you find yours is a good fit for you!

@melanierxdoc 3 года назад

Thank you!!! My back has been killing me with our brand new RV mattress!! I’m a side and stomach sleeper. I hope this works. I’m gonna call them tomorrow. Thank you ☺️

@Rvlove 3 года назад

You are very welcome. We have loved our mattress from Mattress insider for many years now. Hope it helps you too. -M

@melissaweyrick5311 6 лет назад

Thank you for Posting. This will be my first purchase for the RV. As a "Professional Insomniac" I have had some concerns about the quality - or lack of with RV Mattress's. SO very happy they are in Denver :)

@Rvlove 6 лет назад

Yes many RVs come standard with the el-cheapo mattresses but there is an option to upgrade. They have a showroom in Denver which is great for trying out in person, but even for people nationally, they are very good at diagnosing over the phone and building a mattress to suit then they shrink wrap it and ship it to you. We have had ours now for about 8 months and are still very happy with it. Good luck!

@bobt1931 7 лет назад

We bought a 8" Luxury Cool-MAX® Gel Foam RV Mattress II from Mattress Insider when we first bought our used coach in 2014. It was one of the first purchases we made for the coach after we bought it. We love the mattress. Shipped out quick and fit perfect. We also bought the encasement because we have a short queen, which is a size not common in the box stores. We love sleeping on it more than the Tempurpedic we have in the house. My niece just so happened to buy a used travel trailer that needed a bit of work and has a short queen bed. She took our old mattress because it was actually still in pretty good shape so everything worked out well. Didn't know about the Aire Flow Moisture Barrier when we bought our mattress, will have to look into that.

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

HI Bob, glad to hear you had a good experience too - you can't put a price on a good night's sleep! Great you were able to offload your old mattress to your niece as getting rid of the old one can be a headache - luckily we were able to gift ours to a friend with a fifth wheel and a really bad mattress so it worked out great for him too. Yes If you spend a lot of time in humid climates the AireFlow is really worth looking into as these RV beds are just sitting on plywood platforms... not the kind of things we thing about or WHY it might be an issue when we are RV shopping. Thanks for sharing your experience and safe travels!

@yescandles 7 лет назад

I had read about the moisture barrier product back when I bought my RV and purchased a new mattress.. I ordered it from a Marine-Product store and had to cut it to size to fit on my platform, which was no easy feat! It looks exactly like the one he showed on the video. As you probably know, it is not a very soft, easy to cut product! Unfortunately I did not get anything to put on top of it. I wasn't told I needed it. I hope the bottom of my mattress is not ruined. I spent several hours researching mattresses before I bought mine. I like it OK, but will definitely give these guys a shot when it is time for a new one. Thanks for the valuable information! I would love to know what the cost was and if your bed is a RV king or RV queen size.

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

HI there, yes our aireflow is hard plasticy webbing on one side (bottom) and has a fabric on the top side which sits against the underneath of our mattress. Ours is a regular Queen size 60 x 80" and so our mattress was just under $500 and the Aireflow was $100 so $600 all up. We were pleasantly surprised, expecting it to easily be a thousand - being custom. And no that Aireflow is NOT easy to cut but Marc managed to do it with a sturdy pair of household scissors - it came in two pieces. All the best to you@!

@packiejoegilheany1171 5 лет назад

Clicked this video wondering why it was even made. Now I’m filing it for when I need a mattress. Thanks, great info here

@Rvlove 5 лет назад

Glad you found it valuable.

@rvnut1133 7 лет назад

Good information, I have back problems as well which keep me from sleeping. I literally have to get up at 3:00 AM or so almost every day because of the back pain. I still have the original crappy RV mattress. I am between something like what you got and a sleep number bed. Thanks for the info.

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

The original RV mattresses are the worst. This was the first thing we planned to upgrade when we bought our RV but the upgraded mattress was fine... for a few years. Glad you found the info helpful.

@faithsrvtrip8768 6 лет назад

RV NUT : I have a sleep number bed. I am thinking I could convert it by buying various types of foams to replace the rubber air bladder.

@markheene8852 6 лет назад

Decided it was time for a new mattress in our 10year old coach (one year new to us). We liked your video and the details provided so we ordered one from MattressInsider using the RVLove discount. Thanks, keep up the good work.

@Rvlove 6 лет назад

Hello Mark, Glad you found the video helpful and were able to make use of the discount as well. We love our mattress. Really great guys that run mattressinsider too. Always love seeing good people do well. Thank you

@janiced7010 7 лет назад

Another great video by you two! A comfortable mattress is definitely on our "must have" list! We are in the downsizing process now, with plans to put our house on the market in January, when the house sales pick up in our beach area market. Our goal is to be on the road by June 2018. We appreciate you guys and how you "keep it real" with RV breakdowns and ALL! Maybe we'll see you on the road one day! Praying for good health, safe travels, and happy wanderings for you two!

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

Thanks Janice - we hope to see you down the road too! Happy trails!

@irenepartridge5465 7 лет назад

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

Anytime Irene :)

@jaaukema 6 лет назад

After watching your video on Mattress Insider - I went to their web site and checked them out. Based on your recommendations and positive reviews I placed an order this morning for a 70X80X8 custom luxury gel foam mattress. Looking forward to receive it around the 25th and test it out. Thank you for all your video posts. Oh...I did tell them you sent me and got 10% off.

@Rvlove 6 лет назад

Hi John So glad the video and sharing our experience was helpful for you! We still love and sleep very well on our Mattress Insider mattress, we've had it about 10 months now. Marc has definitely noticed an improvement in that he doesn't wake with back pain anymore like he used to. We hope you like yours as much as we do ours and glad the 10% discount was able to help you out! Let us know what you think after the 25th. It's pretty crazy watching the thing unroll so quickly. All the best to you! Sleep Well :)

@golfnut2599 7 лет назад

@cristolmetro5092 4 года назад

This has been so helpful, for we are in the market for a new mattress and wow this was great! Thank you!!

@Rvlove 4 года назад

You are so welcome! Love hearing what we share is so beneficial. We still love our mattress. We have a follow-up video about getting a second one too. Here is a link to the related blog post and video. rvlove.com/2018/11/19/unboxing-review-rv-mattress-plus-a-10-discount-code/

@HulaShack1 7 лет назад

This was such an amazing and informative video. I had no idea how mattresses were made let alone all the available options for the layers to customize the perfect mattress. When you look into the toxins that are in the cheap store-bought mattresses. it is quite scary. You are smart opting for the organic mattress. I know I will buying organic for our RV when we buy one. Also.....where did you get your bedding? I assume it is custom...Love it!!!

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

HI there, glad you found the info helpful, we learned a lot too! The off gassing IS pretty scary, especially when living in such a small space. I actually bought the bedding from Pottery Barn about 2 years ago - bought 2 duvet covers and used the second one to cover a new custom made valance that Marc made.... my interior stylist friend Jane in Australia (www.janebrowninteriors.com) is the wizard behind the idea - she does my styling via Skype calls! Brilliant. Hope that helps!

God, i love this family😃

@Rvlove 5 лет назад

Thank you.

@jayf6525 7 лет назад

Thanks for turning us on to Mattress Insider. During my web searches, I did not come across this company. We have a new motor home and the mattress is 100% crap. The manufacturers should be ashamed of the junk they put in their motor homes. Called and spoke with someone before I placed our order just to make sure I understood the various types and make sure we got the right one for us. Ordered the Elation model today.

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

Glad you found a mattress that will help you sleep easier! Agree with you - most mattressse that come in RVs are utter crap. But here is our take on RV manufacturers cheaping out in general... Most people say they want quality, but they don't really want to pay for it... so RV manufacturers cut quality when and where they can to keep the prices low so the RVs will SELL! Unfortunately, most people don't look at or consider the many cheap things they will need to replace when buying an RV... not suggesting that is you... but our theory is manufacturers cut corners where they can to keep moving units...and it works, They are selling a ton and people just replace what they don't like. We agree with you and prefer quality ourselves, but that probably makes us the minority, as in being willing to pay more for it! Sweet dreams!

@mark98070 2 года назад

I realize this is an old post but I was considering buying one from mattress insider but was undecided which to choose. The elation is the one that 5" thick and I was concerned it would be too thin especially on a plywood base. Can I ask, how do you like that one? Do you wish perhaps you ordered a thicker one? Thanks for your reply!

@andrewrwhite71 4 года назад

Thanks for the awesome review. It convinced me to call, order an Elation 9.5" 60x75 Short Queen and take my chances! Hopefully we will enjoy it as much as you do.

@Rvlove 4 года назад

Fantastic! We believe you will be very happy with it. We have loved ours for years, and even got a second one when we switched RVs. Enjoy! -Marc

@dcb1943 2 года назад

Apology: I sent you a note about enjoying your video and saying that Mattress Insider was no longer honoring your coupon. Today I received a 10% refund from them. Looking forward to sleeping on the mattress soon.

@Rvlove 2 года назад

Looking at your great video on mattress insider,review and find ourselves now in the market for replacement....Do you still feel the same ,and or would choose a different product from them...THANKS ,DALE N KAT

@Rvlove 3 года назад

Hi Dale and Kat. Yes, we definitely still love our Mattress Insider Mattress all these years later. When we sold that motorhome, the mattress went with it, but the first thing we bought for our second motorhome was the exact same mattress. Here is a link to that video if you haven't seen it yet. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-17cMdtiEr-0.html Wishing you some great rest in your new mattress too! -M

@marlaharmon 4 года назад

How is your mattress holding up?

@Rvlove 4 года назад

We still love it. In fact, one of the first upgrades we did to our second motorhome was order a new mattress for it, just like our first one, as we needed to sell our first mattress with our motorhome. Here is a blog post to learn more, and save 10% with a coupon. rvlove.com/2019/06/03/unboxing-and-review-of-our-new-rv-mattress-a-10-discount-code/

@Rvlove 4 года назад

If you are still considering upgrading your mattress, you might like to know that for the next 2 days that is December 3-4, MattressInsider.com has a holiday special with an extra 5% discount... so use the code LOVE15 to save 15% on a mattress (instead of the usual 10% with the RVLOVE coupon code). Cheers!

@faithsrvtrip8768 6 лет назад

Back pain is a BIG red flag! I was in the hospital 18 months ago and had to request the find a bed with a solid mattress. They had me in a bed that supposedly adjusted to prevent bedsores but it wrecked my back! I had to ask them to find an older bed with a regular foam mattress.

@Rvlove 6 лет назад

Sorry to hear about your injury. Definitely agree that having the right mattress makes a huge difference.

@foretravelman67 6 лет назад

How are the sides on the mattress? In other words, when you roll over toward the side of the bed, does it feel like you are falling out because the sides are softer? Thanks!

@Rvlove 6 лет назад

Consistent all the way across the mattress. so no, it does not feel like we are falling out.

@johnbaas8431 3 года назад

oops, sorry...just found it!

@Rvlove 3 года назад

Yep. Glad you found it. for others... it is RVLOVE

@clintstinytrailerconversio5560 5 лет назад

Custom size (actually Airstream standard twin) prevents returns.

@ulrikej.faidt-berisford4892 7 лет назад

What did you do with your old mattress? That is my problem do not know what to do with it.

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

Good question! We got lucky - a fellow we knew in our campground had a crappy old one in his 5th wheel and was happy to take ours.

@robertstatile343 6 лет назад

so how much did this end up costing you? Im shopping now!! BTW Thanks for posting something very informative!

@Rvlove 6 лет назад

Robert Statile just under $500!

@dawnaspen 4 года назад

which mattress did you go with ? they have three types

@Rvlove 4 года назад

We had a custom combination of layers. Depending on how you sleep, and other factors, the mattress we went with might not be the best for you. The staff at mattress insider are great for helping choose the right set up for your needs. We also bought a mattress cover from them that we love. When you order, make sure you use coupon code RVLOVE to save 10%. www.mattressinsider.com

@edgrabousky9178 7 лет назад

Can I buy one in SC? That's where I live winter months??

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

They make them in SC and ship from there - so you could probably arrange to pick it up in person when there, but it's probably just as easy to have it delivered, at least it was easy for us - Give them a call to double check 1-888-488-1468 or email them via their website www.MattressInsider.com (and remember the code RVLOVE will save you10%)

@Gr8LakesCamper 6 лет назад

Now that it's been a few months, are you still happy with it?

@Rvlove 6 лет назад

Hi Rick, we've actually had the mattress now for about 10-11 months ( we installed it in March 2017 and posted the video a couple months later) - we still love the mattress. Sleep much better and Marc is no longer waking with back pain - he put it down to his back condition originally but turns out the mattress and topper we were sleeping on simply didn't have good enough support. So almost a year in, we're still very happy. Hoep you are doing well!

@Gr8LakesCamper 6 лет назад

Thanks! Hope you two are doing well, also!

@Rvlove 6 лет назад

We are doing great! Look forward to catching up again sometime, stay warm!

@rvdreamin836 7 лет назад

nice video. You guys kill me!! ha

@fordfan3179 6 лет назад

So six months later? How is it?

@Rvlove 6 лет назад

Hi Neil, we've actually been sleeping on the mattress since March 2017 and we still love it. Marc was waking with back pain every morning but this has substantially reduced with the new mattress. He does have a back condition so we just put his pain down to that... but as it turns out the old mattress just wasn't supportive enough and exacerbated the problem. We are both sleeping well and loving our new mattress, thanks for asking and hope that helps!

@crowman5936 6 лет назад

The biggest question is, How much did it cost?

@Rvlove 6 лет назад

Hi there! Just under $500 including shipping - which was much less than we were expecting - more info here in the blog post rvlove.com/2017/07/02/buying-a-new-rv-mattress-expert-tips_what-we-learned-save-10/ Happy New Year!

@divebarcasanova7610 7 лет назад

We checked out the custom route. Incredibly expensive. Off the chain expensive. They all averaged $1700 to $2200. We went the specialty RV mattress route and even the best of them just fail in a few months. RV dealer told us to go with a home mattress. We finally settled on a Primo from Sit and Sleep. Super Queen $339.00 delivered free, old mattress hauled off free. Spring with foam beats the all foam and air mattresses IOHO's. Sure, not for everyone. In 90% of RV applications the mattress has to be flexible because of the lift up storage compartment under most master beds. Some storage compartments are partial length hatches and the mattress has to not be heavy yet bend in the middle. Plus negotiating the trick hallways and turns of many RV's, and being forgiving and fitting between your fixed position nightstands. The Primo beats them all from our experiences, and it's a really comfortable Mattress and really holding up.

@Rvlove 7 лет назад

Glad you found one that works for you - you make a very good point about the mattress flex for accessing under bed storage and bending.
