Hi!

This is CyndyRPOD190. My husband & I just bought a new RPOD190. I was just wondering if anyone had any suggestions on sheets or a mattress pad for the queen bed. Also, any suggestions on a mattress pad or sheets for the bed that is over the table. Looking forward to getting it all set up for some adventures. Any suggestions welcome! Thanks very much!Big smile

Hello Cindy,

Welcome and congratulations! I hope you and your husband have many fun adventures and make many great memories with your RPod. My wife and I have really enjoyed ours.

If it has a short queen mattress, you could look for sheets on Amazon, Camping World, or other sites. As for the table/bed, I can't help you there. I modified the dinette bed to make it a 3/4 size bed. We found 3/4 size sheets on Amazon. You can see my mod via the link in my signature. Some may be of use for you.

I bought a mattress pad and 2 sets of sheets at Camping World right after I bought my 180.  They gave me a discount, but I thought the regular price was reasonable.  The mattress is a short Queen, so a Queen fitted sheet will have a lot of extra to tuck under.  I used a quilted twin comforter that was a little over-sized, from BB&B, so I wouldn't have to have a long overhang on the side of the bed.

We purchased "RV Queen " sheets from amazon. I just did a search and found at least 8 offerings from them
https://www.amazon.com/s?k=RV+queen+sheets+set&ref=nb_sb_noss_2
they seemed to go from $25-50 for a full set of 2 sheets and 2 pillowcases.
Make sure they are "RV Queen" or they will be too big.
Happy camping

We do things a little different, we use a double inflatable mattress on the bed so we can control the firmness (or in my case softness) and then an XXL double sleeping bag for the hubs, me and two dogs. Our other dog likes to sleep on the dinette bench. I find the sleeping bag much less fussy than sheets and such although I do bring tons of pillows;)

We use both styles of bedding-sheets in warmer weather and sleeping bags in colder weather.
the sheets can be a pain. We sewed the top sheet to the fitted bottom sheet at the foot and at the side against the wall--that makes it a little easier to deal with .
