I have a topper and I use sheets and blankets. At the end of each trip I change the sheets (I keep two sets for the Roo) fold the topper with everything and place this on the dinette. Take the used sheets, wash and store back in the trailer for next time.

We use sleeping bags with removable liners that can be easily washed. We also use sheets and blankets over the sleeping bags in warmer weather. We store the bags in plastic containers in our barn when not in use.

Sheets, matching pillow cases, comforter or quilt, memory foam topper, heated mattress pad... Wow am I an old softy? Did that even in the popup. Feels neater, like to sprawl in the morning. Beds are made up each morning, just like at home.

We always used sheets and blankets, we also used an egg crate topper. As far as storage goes, when finshed and packing up we would fold the blankets and sheets and store them under the dinette. When we got home if we werent going out for a couple of weeks they'd be washed and put back in the HTT. Its all about your own personal preference, best thing to do is try different ways until you find something that works for you.

Amen, brother.

We use egg crate foam to eliminate the crease between mattress halves. Over that is a lightweight mattress cover, then regular (high thread count) queen sheets, and finally a comforter. Cold weather we'll also throw on a electric blanket. We bring our pillows from home.

We used to do the sleeping bag thing, but washing bags is a much larger hassle for us than laundering just the bed sheets in between trips.

We're another 233S owner. I'm with Chuck on this. Why bother making beds. We have sleeping bags & roll them up when not in use. We had them & used them in the PUP for 27 years so why change that. It worked. My wife has put sheets inside the sleeping bags which we can take out & wash. For travel we put them on the folded down table. Another possible place that we have put the sleeping bags for travel is to stand them up on end in between the closet at the rear and the closed side bed. If you put a collapsible rod between the closet & the side storage area you could keep them from falling forward during travel. My wife has put some fitted sheets on the mattresses just to protect them. If we camp where we have AC power & it's cold we do use the heated mattress, love them for that, so haven't put extra padding on them or they wouldn't be much use when using them that way.
