Supply chain issues have cause the coir bed mat we chose to be sold out frequently. Savvy Rest has theirs back in stock and it ships within a week or so. If you see it, get it!

The Froli system is king at keeping mold away. I can’t imaging risking mold in my rig only to save a few hundred dollars, especially in humid regions.

The campground shown in this video is the Springfield Campground (a Corp of Engineers campground) near Anderson, South Carolina. More specifically, it is site #59 located at the lake's edge. We love Corp of Engineer campgrounds as they quite often have some of the largest individual campsites and they are more often than not, locate on or next a body of water. Thank you for watching!

It seems to be a perfect fit. So for that queen size, it come in 2 pieces? Do you mean you added another layer on top of the other? I watched many of your videos. The marble dish drier mat matches perfectly and is now in my Amazon cart. 😂 The baskets have since sold out. 🤷🏻‍♀️

How did you get the mattress out of the back? haha it's so ridiculously tight in the back of the camper that adding anything to the bedding area is quite the challenge.

Hey hey! Not sure yet if we're definitely going to go for Froli or something else. I bought one from Amazon and I think it would work fine, but we cannot get it to lay down flat! Then if we try to put the mattress back in, it's a nightmare! That memory foam mattress is not easy to maneuver!
@CouchPotatoCamping
@CouchPotatoCamping 3 жыл бұрын
Hey, girl! Yeah, the Froli wasn't for us. I can imagine how hard it is to maneuver the memory foam mattress. We have smaller latex toppers to create one large mattress, so it's easier to move in layers. The one that doesn't lay down flat doesn't seem like a good idea!!! LOL Keep in mind, you're going to need to get underneath the bed and all that stuff to winterize, so easier layers to maneuver will be great! Off to find your channel!

Thanks for your videos! I’m starting to catch up on all of them and appreciate the resource. We put a bed mat under our mattress recently for the same reason. Although, taking it out on New Years in near freezing temperatures we noticed an increase in draft coming from the space now provided. Essentially, the mattress had been acting as an insulator for the air leaks caused by gaps in the floor from hoses passing through and limited (maybe no) bottom insulation. Have you done any weatherproofing to alleviate this issue? We love our Sol Horizon, but it doesn’t make a lot of sense for the heated tanks when the occupants are frozen! 🥶
@CouchPotatoCamping
@CouchPotatoCamping 2 жыл бұрын
We have not done any extra weatherproofing/insulating of our Sol Horizon. We typically don't RV in the winter, though we have been in our Horizon during some colder shoulder season temps/locations. That's why we say - when asked - the Sol Horizon is really a 3 season RV, maybe a 3 1/2 season RV if you bring a small, space heater to supplement the RV's heater. Currently ours is winterized and in storage.

What about a plastic mattress protector??
@CouchPotatoCamping
@CouchPotatoCamping 2 жыл бұрын
We definitely would advise NOT getting a plastic protector. The plastic holds in moisture and doesn’t let the bed breathe. It could actually cause more mold.
