We bought a gel/memory foam topper from Costco. The width was correct for the "queen" size bed on our Flagstaff, but was maybe 5" too long. We knew that when we purchased it.

I measured real careful, had the wife stand on a 2 x 4 at the measurement, then cut it with a brand new box cutter blade extended all the way. Cut came out almost factory.

We absolutely love it. We've used it in both hot and cold conditions this year, no problem.

I have a 2" memory foam topper on my mattress. Works great & the heat from the heated mattresses will come through.

We put a Sealy Cool Gel topper on ours and it made it into a whole different sleep experience.

Memory foam was the way to go for us. $100 at SAMs club. I actually look forward to sleeping in the RV now!

We got a 3" memory foam that has channels cut in it to help keep cool. We had a memory foam mattress at home years ago and it was too hot, but this pad with channels was great! I think it came from Wally world. We did not cut it to length, it hides easy enuff under the satandard size queen sheets,

We also have the costco memory foam topper. We sleep better in the tt than in our king at home.

We had the exact same experience with the Costco Topper. A great night's sleep!
