Roo 233s Bed Size & Table Height

Getting ready to trade my HW 276 for a Roo 233S. After watching many online videos I noticed the mattresses are smaller than the bunk ends. In my HW 276 the mattresses are exactly the same size. Are the mattresses 60x80 or the bunk ends. I am asking because I am 6’5” and fit perfectly on the 60x80 mattresses in my HW 276.

My second question is regarding the kitchen table height. The table seems very low compared to the bench and the difference between the bench and table of my HW 276.

Your feedback would be appreciated.

Since you live in Illinois, you should be able to find one to actually get inside one to see for yourself.
There's no substitute for see how everything fits.
If I was your height, I would.
I'm 6' and I fit OK.

I can't say what size the mattresses are for sure without getting out and measuring after work. I think they are 60"x80" as we use standard queen size bed sheets and they seem to fit fine. I can say though, that the mattresses are slightly smaller than the bunks. I think the reason for this is the steel cables they use to support the bunk ends now. The mattresses have to fit in between the cables and cant go end to end. The older ones had support poles that had to be installed under the bunk, outside. They did away with that set up.

I'm 6'1" and I just fit between the cables. If you're sleeping on an angle you'll be fine, but might be tight if the DW is next to you. The cable in your toes isn't very comfy. I just measured. Mattresses are roughly 73" x 58".

Also, one of you will end up crawling over the other to get up in the middle of the night.

Luckily, for the many years we had our Roo and popups, the DW got the inside spot since I never needed to get up in the middle of the night.

Me either, until I hit my 60's.

rockford, I'm also 63.
Thankfully I still don't have to, yet.
