Inflatable front cab mattress looks good on paper. But it is one of the most uncomfortable bed arrangement for an Class B RV. Just make a folding platform and use a three way folding, firm memory foam mattress on top. This is what I use and you will get a very comfortable sleep.
That is a great suggestion for a more permanent set-up. This is more for those one-off cases and much easier to store in a class B than a prebuilt platform with a mattress.
Is it worth $500.00 to have an extra bed in a van or truck camping? I thought about that for a long time before I bought it. After using it twice on camping trips I can say it's a great product for a short adult if you do a couple things to make it more comfortable. You are sleeping across the front seat of a vehicle so there's limitations - it's not a twin bed. My spouse is a big person and needs the other (not quite full size) bed in the van to sleep so we needed another bed. I'm 5"4" and have the Luno working ok for me now. I put two throw pillows under the mattress part to fill the two front seat cavities your butt sits on when you are driving. If you don't do that, the mattress sits on an angle of about 6 degrees and for me the 6 degrees meant not sleeping. First trip out in it was pretty rough going. The pillows did the trick for the most part to level it but the second trip out in it was still pretty rough - I got maybe 3 hours of sleep. After that second trip I put a stiff 3" 24" wedge pillow between the mattress and the T-Support in the cavity on the floor on the passenger side. No adult can have their head by the steering wheel. - it just doesn't work. The wedge pillow on the passenger side did two things: It elevated the passenger side slightly because you don't want your head lower than your feet. More importantly, the wedge pillow firmed up the mattress against the door so it felt more like a real bed. That helped a lot. I also put a heavily quilted half bed spread on it so it breathes. Luno should change the design to allow for that 6 degree differential (for $500.00 they just should) If you are smart, you'll put some kind of blanket in the floor cavity around the metal slides on the seat adjustment rails to protect the T support from potential punctures as well. The Luno is very well made with a boat grade vinyl but its just too expensive not to protect it. You have to keep your floor completely clean so a rock can't puncture it either and be sure to level your vehicle. My whole bed roll to make the thing work (so I can actually sleep on it) is using up a cube of space about 24" x 24" by 24" of compacted area in the van when it's not in use. In a B type or conversion van that's a lot of space but it does give you close to a real extra bed if you are short. Is it worth 500.00? That's iffy but we needed another bed because of the design of our van. Down the road there will likely be lower cost options and better designs for less money but for now, they're the only real game in town for a viable niche bed solution like this. I had to tweak it a bit to make it work but I'm not sorry I bought it.
