If anyone could help us out on where you can buy a camping trailer queen size mattress, it would be awesome.
Or, alternatively, if you recommend another mattress, I'll have a look at that also.
At the moment, we have a thin foam mattress, which is pretty ordinary, and any good advice is welcome.
Thanks.

We also got ours from madetomeasurematresses. Cost I think $300 plus $300 to freight it to perth. Great quality and made specifically for camper trailers.

ours is Ikea .....

Cheers Chippy :D

Any good? I heard they didn't breath very well, and mightn't be too good in Qld sumemr conditions under canvas. Something about permeability of the outer material..?

Would be keen to hear what you think. Can't go wrong for that $$$ I would have thought.

I got ours from super amart, cost a couple of hundred and a lot better sleep than the old foam mattress.
Figured for the cost you cant go wrong

The mattress in our CT was an Ikea mattress. We liked it so much we swapped it with the one on our bed at home. So now we use it everyday. I never had any probs with it under canvas. If it was a problem tho,I'd just put a wool underlay over it.

Used some of this info to start looking at replacing our foam mattress so I thought I'd post up some findings to keep youze up to date.

Went to Makin Mattresses (Canberra) and they were pretty informative and knew what we were talking about.  They basically make you a low profile inner-spring mattress by adding $50 to the price of the mattress you like in the store.  We looked at the basic range from $250 to $499 and the guy said the model with the leaf pattern ($399 I think) is popular for this purpose (though we're going on the road for a year and liked the firm $499 one, of course  >:().

They basically give you a mattress with half the spring height so that the feel of the mattress is otherwise the same, including double sided so you can turn it over.  Measures 170mm (just under 7 inches).  Takes a few weeks to make it up.

Heard Sealy make low profile mattresses so we to Snooze but they had no real idea what we were talking about and had to make a few phone calls....

Waiting on a quote from 'made to measure mattresses' to compare - will post their quote here once I get it and let you know who we go with.

It's not as hard as I thought it would be to get a low profile mattress - thanks to all for the past info!
