Originally, our camper had a "goucho" style bed/couch. This is a thin foam pad that folds up into a couch by doubling over the back portion. Ours was old, smelly and would have taken a lot of work to recover, so we bought a $100 memory foam mattress off Amazon. FYI, here is what $100 in "memory foam" looks like...3.5 inches of egg crate, 1 inch of higher density foam and 1 inch of memory foam. Oh well, it's camping, not the Hyatt.
One thing you'll learn about most smaller vintage campers is the rear bed is actually a 3/4 Full. What's that, you say? it's about 48 inches vs 54 inches for a full. Sharing a 48 inch bed with my 20 inch wife, 24 inch me and 2 dogs should be fun.
The photo above is why we bought the foam mattress instead of a spring mattress....a few minutes with a sharp carving knife and it fit perfectly...if only the same could be said for us...
