In this video, Steven takes us through the different sizes of RIB seat beds that are available for campervans. We start with the rib Altair 120cm, talk about the 129cm wide bed with 3 seat beds and also do a full preview of the single 60cm wide option that comes in our Taransay and Sanna campervan.
We hope you enjoy this van tour and as always please make sure you subscribe to the channel for more campervan inspiration.

I wish I had known about these type of seats when we bought our campervan. We have just got the normal rock and roll bed. If we weren’t so far away, I would be very tempted to sell our van and buy one of yours. They look fantastic! 💕

We've had ours for 13 years in our t4. Its been absolutely brilliant I couldn't recommend the rib enough. I made some drawers to go underneath for extra storage. Well worth the money.

I have had a full conversion done and went for the 120 cm rib altair bed in mine because I was so impressed. Now I have it installed, In use, in the bed mode, the front section of the bed is quite a cantilever and I worry a little that if both myself and the wife had all our weight on it, it may cause problems. What is the weight restriction on the rib altair bed, particularly the front leaf ?

Great demo. Looks like a very high sitting position. What's headroom like?

@nelly88w59 2 года назад

from the van floor, what the height up to the top of the two doors below the bed ? What I'm getting at is how tall can a portapotti be before it hits door top or framework ?

@locodemarseafool 3 года назад

any seats fit for the new ford Transit ??

@erviskota1584 3 года назад

amazig ... !

@lewiswilson1714 Год назад

Is there any reason these couldn't be installed as driver's seats (as long as there was an electric handbrake in the front dash)? Seems like it would be a good way to maximise use of the dead space created by the front driver's seats.

Pro trick : watch series at kaldrostream. Been using it for watching lots of of movies recently.

@codynico90 3 года назад

@Jack Grady yup, have been using kaldrostream for months myself :D

@e.colemantlpss6406 3 года назад

I have one of these but a three seater. Rock hard mattress to sleep on and it squeaks like hell when driving. £2500 spent on a bed and then had to spend another £100 for a good self inflating mattress. Not bad if you like sleeping on a concrete floor

@domanicgilbert5812 3 года назад

Thanks pal I did think it looked a little hard

@stevezodiac491 2 года назад

I have one in my van, no problem with a decent memory foam topper. The access to storage beneath and behind and flexibility of the bed system is second to none. No squeaks from mine whatsoever.

Can this be in a 2007 Honda Odyssey?

@raybunn8895 3 месяца назад

Ðo you not find the rib bed a little high when seated ?

@philbrown7898 5 месяцев назад

Was that VW long or short wheel base please

@joodeemiller6357 3 года назад

Can you put bed in a “daybed” mode to have small bed and maximise floor space?

@stevezodiac491 2 года назад

When the bed is in bed mode, the floor space is still there entirely beneath the front leaf section.

@Chriswoodworker 3 года назад

Can you still have that bed system and cupboards on runner so you can shrink or extend the boot size when travelling so a powerchair can be fitted into the boot?

@JerbaCampers 3 года назад

Hi Chris, Having the bed on a runner is definitely an option and this would give you the boot space required for a powerchair. The furniture is fixed and cannot be moved but may have the option of being adapted to suit. Another option might be to have a lift fitted under the side sliding door, this is something we have done before and this allows you to have the chair fixed in behind the driver and passenger seats.

@Chriswoodworker 3 года назад

@@JerbaCampers Sorry, I just meant the bed section on rails with the storage cupboards that are underneath the bed being able to move. I like the idea of the lift but worried about the clearance and having my powerchair in front of rear passengers. The bed system looks perfect as we love to lounge about when on holiday and having the lifting system on the pillow part of the bed is perfect. Love your videos by the way.

Wherein the USA can one of these vanswith three seatbelts/beds seats, be purchased?

@bibill1575 3 года назад

Check out the store in Oregon. Benchmark Store 1323 SE 6th Ave Portland, OR 97214. phone (503)446-5599

@mikesimmonds1916 11 месяцев назад

We have one and it's very mechanically clever. Looks good is well built and safe clearly but it is so uncomfortable we need a memory foam topper to make it passable. Which is very disappointing for somthig so expensive. Like halfords car mats in your brand new Bentley

@dovebecca 3 года назад

Where does one get these in the us?

@rickjacobs2059 3 года назад

For sure, WHERE in the US???

@markjackson2276 Год назад

Is there any reason that they build them so high? It just seems like the leg height is too tall and this also makes the head too near to the roof, I can't see a reason why they can't be slightly lower.....or am I overlooking something?

@JerbaCampers Год назад

They need to sit above the wheel arches at either side for their system to work

3 года назад

Can ISOFix be added to the 60cm single RIBs? I keep finding conflicting information.

@lfo414 2 года назад

This is a crucial question

@broadpete 3 года назад

Why are they so high? Even your feet don't touch the ground, and your head must brush the upper bed (which lacks the cover that most enjoy).

@JerbaCampers 3 года назад

Back seats are high because they need to clear the wheel arches. If I sit back in the driving position there’s loads of room above my head too. If parked and enjoying the campervan we would normally pop the roof and bed up out of the way.

@broadpete 3 года назад

Thanks for replying so quickly

@allanb52 6 месяцев назад

What noise, the standard beds are better if you get a nice foam, no way can a double sided be more comfortable. You can't use this without an elevating roof and my R&R has more storage. These are heavier and much more expensive. I see no advantages at a;ll.
