Hello everyone!

I am having to replace my mattress in the Dandy - I was thinking about it and now due to a leak we will have to replace it -well its gone today -as we dont have a money fountain I have been looking to see what I could replace it with - I definately dont want a blow up mattress - I have looked at the matress toppers that Ikea do and also thought about a futon matress ? Any suggestions/info appreciated? Thanks 

( Im hoping not to spend much more than £100 - Ideally alot less would be good!! - but I do want to be fairly comfortable)

Hi Jacki

We sold our conway mattress's on ebay last year as the trailer was totally wrecked - they went for approx £25.00, when we brought our FC we went back to the caravan place where our insurer's told us to take the trailer tent for assessment and took out our consumer unit to re-use, it maybe worth having a look around other caravan places that repair or are assesors for insurance companies -

We had all the cushions in our Dandy 6 replaced a couple of years ago for about £150. We went to a local upholsterer and asked him for a quote.

Hi there,

You can get good foam from the Exchange and Mart Foam cut to size you might find one you can visit make certain you buy the right density.

I use a Futon mattress in the Combi Camp, but it was too hard for me, so I bought a inflatable mattress which I put underneath it. The result is a bed which is more comfortable than at home!! as the Futon mattress keeps the cold from striking up.
