Hi. I am thinking about moving from a trailer tent to a folding camper. I have noticed that the bed widths are all smaller than my last two trailer tents, 1.65m and 1.50m. Could someone help out with this please. Are there any makes of folding campers which have a bed width of 1.5m or greater?
Thanks

You can get a lot of information on all makes from Blue Sky website.

I think you might struggle for your requirements though.

Hi,

I have been researching trailer tents as I’m thinking of buying one and the Cabanon Malawi Royale Deluxe specifies a king size bed of 2.10 x 2.20 m.

Kind regards

I just replaced the matresses in a 1999 Pennine Pathfinder with memory foam ones.

The "King Size" bed in the pathfinder actually the equivalent of standard UK double ( 190cm L x 135cm W x 10cm H ). This slotted in with no issues at all.

The "Double" bed in the pathfinder is slightly smaller than a standard UK small double. The small double I bought was 190cm L x 135cm W x 10cm H, and I had to shorten the width by 8cm for it to fit. Any sharp knife will cut through these without any problems.

My recommendation would be to measure the bed area once you have it (or better still the existing mattress if it has one) and buy a mattress closest to the size.

Pay attention to the height of the mattress - if it's too thick, it may prevent the camper folding up properly.
