I'd suggest 1.5" - 2" Thick "Super Lux Foam" for the base (1.5" may work for you. I'm 6'4" and weight 240#). This will keep you from bottoming out on the platform (I hate that). Although it's a little too firm for sleeping.
Then laminate (with spray adhesive) to "Lux High Quality Foam". This foam is quite comfortable for sleeping but you may bottom out if used alone. When laminated to the "Super Lux Foam" you will have a nice comfortable sleeping surface that won't allow you to bottom out.
You then will have about 1" to 1.5" to put a "Memory foam" topper if desired.
If you go any thicker than 5" - 5.5" total, you may not be able to close your trailer. We went to 5.5" and had to adjust the roof lift arms to get the roof closed. |
Love this idea.. Dual foam! I replaced the foam mattress in an older trailer I had and spent littleraly an hour trying to find the right density. Got it sorta right. Wife (who likes a very firm matress) loved it. I thought it was too hard. But we didn't bottom out!
I kinda did it in reverse, this time. I put a cheap Wally World topper on my standard 2006 TM matress "just to see" and this made the DW very happy, so we are sticking with it... for now. FWIW, the top closed NP.
