We ordered a good, firm, memory foam mattress from Amazon. We cut ours to fit. But.....we actually ended up recutting it a little shorter on all sides to allow for the mattress topper we also purchased, mattress cover, and sheets. Plus, having a small gap on all sides makes for much, much easier bed making. The mattress was very firm, so it was pretty hard to make the bed prior to us trimming it down some! My knuckles were raw from making the bed! I wish Forest River had made the coach a bit longer in order to allow for using traditional size bedding without altering. We decided to totally remove the table from the coach and leave the bedding in place all the time. We plan on further strengthening that area with a stronger, larger piece of of wood. There will be no gap where the table top was. We also caulked the holes in the floor where the table was originally anchored. This works much better for us as we are outsiders from daylight to dark! Happy camping AND fishing!
