Can this mattress be trimmed? I will be using it in a travel trailer and it's only 48" wide. Twin is too small.

I would imagine you can trim it if you use a razor or very sharp knife, but there is a material covering the actual foam so you have to cut that too as there is no zipper or opening to take it off, I guess you could sew it when you're finished. I have not cut or trimmed my matress so I'm not 100%sure how it would turn out. I think if I were to attempt to trim this mattress, I'd do so while it's still in the air tight package, seems like you could get a cleaner cut while the mattress is fairly flat. HTH

After u let it sit for the time they give u , should be able to take cover off and trim , it has to sit like 48 hours before fully expanded .

I trimmed mine to a 48" wide waterbed frame. It trims just fine. :-)There is a zipper around the bottom edge of the outer covering, so it's easy to put it back together again.

I wanted to thank the original poster for this question. I have an antique 3/4s four poster bed that I inherited and could not find a reasonably priced mattress for it. My parents commissioned a specially fitted mattress in the 1980s, but that one is in a state of disintegration. Being able to trim this one down would solve all of my problems, except for the sheets sadly, because I cannot afford the cost of a special order one.Thanks!

It looks like you can trim it. It is just a thick foam and does not look like it would come apart in any way. You will love this mattress!!

I'm not sure, but I assume a person could. It's made entirely of foam--two inches of soft memory foam on the top, with the rest being a denser foam--and it is inside a zipped cloth covering. I think if a person thought out how their going to cut, and what they're going to cut it with, it should be doable.

I cut a king memory foam into twins right down the center with an electric carving knife. Worked great

Hi Kate. I am sorry that I do not have an answer for you. I am not familiar with extra long twin mattresses. Maybe you can contact the salespeople who are selling the product. Hopefully they will have an answer for you.

We like the product but the mattress is about for 4 days and has not yet reached the promised measure(12"). It seems that sent to us the 10 inches while We pay ,more expensive, by 12 inches . how can we resolve this situation?

I would imagine you could cut/trim it to any size. But this isn't a cheap memory foam knock-off. It's Memory Foam. Just buy the size you need.

open the zippered cover, and decide. I think it could be cut... but I also think it might fit in you camper. If it is a bit long from head to foot, it should be ok. We use it for camping, on a steel Walmart frame and it is Awesome!!! Currently, it is on our box springs at home... ready to chuck out our pillow top mattress!

Anywhere you would use a twin size - yes. BUY IT. I find it to be well made, no smell, & its holding up just fine without any issues. This is a great buy I would make again without a second thought. Reminder it does need support like any mattress underneath.

I put this in my RV and I love it. But it's a short mattress I don't know how well it would work over a normal length box spring. That could be a problem.

No, it will be too short and too wide. The shape of the crib is more rectangular. If you want to make it thicker just by a foam sheet for $9 at Walmart online or a memory foam sheet from Ross $12 or any other store that sells mattress toppers and cut it to fit the crip dimensions. I did it and it works fine.

I think it would be to big to fit a twin, this is the full size, I put a mattress cover over it, and haven't had it long enough to clean, but I would think it will only need a spot cleaning.

Remember the box spring is exactly that. It's the shape of a box. Not really any room for slack. And you definitely do not want to tear the cover while putting it on. Mattresses comes in different sizes. I did try to cover a twin box spring with a twin mattress cover but my twin box spring was actually a twin XL. You can try it if it saves you money. I also found that my local Walmart sold mattress covers but not box spring covers..

I tried and I think you have to trim off a little bit length to make it fit a crib. But I concern it will take quite some space of a crib since crib is narrower than a bed

Well the mattress came rolled up in a box and I cut it out of the rolled position.... I am sure you can move it around with ease but mine was a full size

No you can't make it shorter and a regular standard twin size mattress is shorter than the spring.

The length is not adjustable. It is the size of a regulation crib mattress.

No. It will fit the width, but not the length of twin XL mattress. It will be a few inches short.

I think it depends on the width of the mattress, but I cannot say that I can do it easily, especially after I washed the cover. It does not fit the mattress perfectly if I don't spend time on stretching it.

It is to big in my opinion... it is the size of a twin mattress width. I think the thickness would just be to much to cope with in a chair along with the width. Even if you cut it up.... it would be tough to deal with.
