In this article we will help you improve the bedding of your van according to your needs and without breaking the bank.

First of all , the choice of bedding for your motorhome will mainly depend on your preferences for comfort and storage space. Here are some things to consider to help you make an informed choice:

• Size: Measure the available surface area in your van to determine the best size bed. If you have a small van, you can opt for a convertible daybed , which turns into a bed at night. If you have more space, you can consider a permanent bed.
• Comfort: choose a quality mattress that will give you good support and a comfortable sleep. Memory foam mattresses are a popular option for vans and motorhomes because they're lightweight, comfortable, and conform to the shape of your body.
• Storage: If you need extra storage space, you can opt for a bed that lifts up to reveal storage space underneath. You can also add drawers or shelves under your bed to maximize storage space.
• Budget: Costs vary greatly depending on the type of bed you choose. The thick mattress topper is often the most affordable option, while custom permanent beds can be quite expensive.

One of the easiest and most affordable ways to improve your sleeping comfort is with a mattress topper . The mattress topper is an additional layer that is placed on the existing mattress, but if it is thick enough (more than 6cm) it can replace a mattress on an extra bed . They are easy to install and can make a big difference in the quality of your sleep.

When choosing a mattress topper for your motorhome or van, it is important to consider the size of your bed. Mattress toppers come in a variety of sizes, and it's essential to find a model that fits your bed perfectly.

When it comes to the composition of the mattress topper , there are a variety of options available in the market. Memory foam mattress toppers are most popular for vans and motorhomes because they mold to your body shape for optimal support and even weight distribution. Latex mattress toppers are also a popular option, as they provide excellent firm support while being naturally hypoallergenic.

It's also important to consider the weight and ease of storage of your mattress topper. Lighter mattress toppers are easier to handle and store in limited space. It is also recommended to choose a model that can be easily rolled up or folded, in order to facilitate storage and transport. For example, our Memory mattress topper or our Rolls mattress topper are both made of memory foam and foldable in 3 or even 4 times in their storage bag provided with the purchase.
