I found these inflatable mattresses and they are perfect for our little T@b 320 Boondock.
  • They are 25" wide so we only have to pull out the slide a couple of inches.
  • They are 72" long so they fit wall to wall. Basically, if you can stand in the middle, these are long enough.
  • They are 4" thick, self-inflating, and you can adjust for stiffness.
  • We also found sheets that are 75"x28" and they fit well, not
  • When they're laid out, the back cushions fit under the table.
  • During the day we simply fold them under the cabinets.
  • It's pretty easy to roll them up so they fit behind the rear seats if needed.
We're headed out on a 6 week cross-country trip, so we need good mattresses and the space between, but we also want to use our seats and table.  This makes a nice compromise of comfort and convenience. 

Got them via Amazon:



The other night I was lying there in my bed, looking up at the stars, and thought "Hey, wait a sec, where the heck's the ceiling!?!"

    I like your idea.  We are struggling with getting a comfortable sleep in our Tab.
    How did you disconnect the backs of the forward cushions?  Any lessons learned on disconnecting them?
    Thanks,

    @K_C_915 I'm not sure what year you have but I have a 2020.  I just cut the tab of fabric connecting the 2 cushions.

    I am about to take the plunge and setup twin beds - ordered my foam insert and mattress pads. But the final step is indeed to cut that strap and separate the cushions. So dumb question - for anyone who did it - any regrets? Any tips where to cut to prevent fraying for example? Sorry, the perfectionist me is me is nervous to make the cut... :-)

    We cut our 5 years ago.  Just trim it close to the cushion.  No fraying noted.

    @Shunyun Good day. Would a third mattress fit in the middle between the two mattresses?

    Yes, there's room to do that.

    Last night I did a test night in our new 320. I slept with my head under the cabinet, but opened the door for an extra inch of clearance and less chance of a painful head bonk. I assume that if you're stacking another four inch mattress on top of the OEM cushions that you have your heads toward the front of the trailer?
