What is the best way to determine whether to purchase the 10" or 12" mattress for a Class A Motorhome?

I went with the thicker mattress for my TT. The down side of that is it makes getting into bed a little difficult due to the increased highth from the floor. TTs have a storage area under the bed. Great sleep!

I'm not sure of the difference in the weight, if you have storage under the bed, then the 10 inch might be better. Consider how difficult it is to raise the bed platform and then think about keeping it raised while you remove items. When we purchased our mattress, we did not have storage under the bed so the weight was not a major issue but when we purchased our new Class A, we knew we could not use a 90 lb mattress.

My mattress is 12in (if you measure part of the curve also) and it is not tight. In fact it has a bit of give/space where there could be an inch at least before it becomes tight. It is not loose where it moves around and you can feel it but enough give. If you want to ever add a topper and also cover it, then you should go bigger. Otherwise, 12in is a good fit for this.

Generally, the thicker the mattress, the more plush/soft the mattress will be. The 8" is designed for back sleepers. The 10-12" is designed for back/side sleepers. The 13" is designed for all around sleeping, including on the stomach. Memory foam mattresses will contour to your body during your rest, as it reacts to temperature. It will support your full body by contouring to your body shape. Our spring mattresses, still give support, as your body will contour to the individually wrapped coils.

10 is firm, yet giving....not a hard feel. I do not have experience with the 12.

My mattress is 16" and the size "King-Deep" it is a perfect fit for it. I would go with the 7-12" version if I were you. Amazon has amazing customer service so if it doesn't work, you should be able to exchange it no problem.

if from frame edge to frame edge is 11.8 i would get the 12", if it is less then the 10" and the legs will reach the difference

Use an 8 inch minimum because of the wooden slots , A 10 inch wood be better.I would not recommend a foam mattress which is too soft, rather one with a sturdy filling.

Yes, we purchased this mattress for our motor home and still happy with it. Very comfortable.

The best way to make sure is to measure the existing mattress (length x width x height) and find one that is close or the same size. The one I ordered was exceptional. My guests felt very comfortable.

I got the 11 inch because of the "gel-infused" layer. The mattress was for my daughter but she is a "furnace" and the gel layer seems to help her sleep cooler. The foam technology seems to sleep warmer than traditional mattresses.

We used an 8 inch mattress and it fit just fine. You could probably get away with a 9 or 10 inch but nothing bigger.

I purchased a 8 inch memory foam mattress for bottom and a 6 inch memory for the top,the top mattress do not want any higher because then the child will be with the height of the guard rails almost anyway,they recommend a 6 inch mattress,and they were right,so glad I made that decision,ITS PERFECT,MY 4RS OLD LOVES IT AND SO DOES MY 12 YRS WHO SLEEPS ON THE BOTTOME WHO IS A BIG 12 YRS OLD HE IS 150 POUNDS AND 5"6 WITH SIZE 11 SHOE HAD HAS PLENTY OF ROOM.i JUST MEASURE IT FOR YOU ITS 3 FEET 2 INCHES WHEN HE SITS UP FROM THE MIDDLE OF THE BED ON A 8INCH MATTRESS,HOPE THAT HELPED YOU,REMOEMBER IF YOU PURCHASE A THICKER MATTRESS THAN 8INCH OF COURSE YOU WILL HAVE LESS HEIGHT ROOM

10" will put it really close to the top of the rail. The paperwork says a max of 6". that is too thin to be comfortable in my opinion, so I added a couple slats (1x2s at home depot) and put on 8" mattresses. I wouldn't do 10" if I were you, unless your kiddo won't roll off- once you add the covers, there won't be much of a lip.

I bought a basic memory foam 8" mattress on amazon, it was the top result and cost me about 80 bucks. I get compliments from guests on the comfort and I just keep a pretty printed twin fitted sheet on the bottom when not in use and it looks great.

John, I cant speak to the difference, aside from the obvious, 9" is thinner than 11", but I can tell you IMHO, that the 10" is simply amazing. Possibly the nicest mattress I have ever purchased really.

Easily lays flat to the equivalent of a full-sized bed for sleeping. Comfort level depends greatly on the mattress. I'd suggest nothing less than 10" mattress.
