Force Bed Size

Greetings all,
We just took delivery of our Brand New 2019 Force HD TS. Lots of questions and issues that I plan to address in a couple of days, but for now - If our mattress was a sleep number mattress it would be about a 2000. I know some people like it like that, and you can't please everybody, but we'd like to replace it. When we measured, it doesn't seem to be a standard size - not even one of the RV standards. So, what is the true size of the "king" mattress in our bedroom, and where can we get a replacement if it isn't standard? We live in San Antonio, TX.
Thanks much.

I have the exact same Rig. Not sure of the size but my wife bought a mattress pad or whatever they are called. It is probably 2-3" thick and I had to cut it on the foot end of the bed. It is really thick foam and it was kinda expensive but sleeps really well now.

I had a hard bed in our Isata 3 and ordered a Lucid 2” memory foam topper off Amazon that made it much more comfortable. I put the topper over the mattress and then the mattress pad tied it all together to keep the topper in place. Just order one larger than your mattress and use an electric kitchen knife to slice it to size. The floor plan shows your “king” is 66 1/2 x 75, definitely not a standard size.

Another option is a company like Tochta which will custom build a memory foam mattress to your exact specifications. They seem to have good reviews, but I have no experience with them.

I live just north of you by Canyon Lake. Enjoy your new Dynamax.

We ordered a custom sized mattress for our Force HD and love it.

Thanks very much for the cut down mattress topper idea. That may be the way we end up going, but the wife would prefer to have a replacement mattress. Tochta is a good suggestion that we will look into. Thanks. I also found that Cantwell Mattress here in San Antonio does custom sizes, so we are going to go to their store today to see what they have to offer.
I also found a "short king" size on line that is 72 x 75. Not many offer that, and I was hoping that would be another option.

There's also a place out of Michigan that does custom mattresses. Foam or spring.

I find sheets made for a deep queen fit the stock one just fine (a little short on sides but serviceable for me)

I think this was the one I was looking at awhile back. Full disclosure I have no experience doing business with them. A quick google search shows several other sites that I'm not familiar with.
