Hi all , I have read a lot of posts here , but I have not seen much in the way of bedding. I am in the last stages of my build & am on the lookout for something. I have 45 inches from wall to wall & find that a twin mattress is too narrow & a full is too wide. What have others used? I would like to use a spring mattress . Any suggestions?? :thinking: I have read that air beds are not very comfy, I find in my advancing years??? :fb
I would like more support. :cry: HELP!!!

The best place to go is a apolstry supply store. There are many thicknesses.
you might see what fabrics they offer too.

It is good you brought that up. I will have to measure my full size air matress that I will be starting with.

that is when my wife spoke up about 2 doors over one you do not have to climb over the other person to get up. :o :cry: I did not think about that.

We have a "basement" or drop floor section in our tear. We keep chairs/TV tables & mini-spare in it.
To allow access, we sewed two flannel covers for our 3" foam mattress (actually four separate sections of foam) that allows the center 2 sections to flip back onto their respective end sections to allow access to the basement.
Flannel covers zip off for cleaning.
