300+ nights in our 2018 5.0 and we still love the mattress! We were down at our seasonal site last night for steaks and beer. We both sleep wonderful on that mattress, but the steaks, beer and ... may have helped us sleep.

Enjoy,

Bed Bag.

We have a bed bag as well. We managed to find one that fit the mattress and our 2 inch memory foam topper. It prevents any dust from accumulating in or on the mattress and topper. Makes it a bit easier to make the bed and everything moves as one piece. We always seem to have good sleeps in the trailer. I am sure some of it is the mattress and some of it is the fresh air and relaxation.

Since there were so many positive remarks - I'll add mine. On our 19 foot, I had read good reviews on the mattress and the first night I thought it was fine. After a week, my back and hips were beginning to hurt so we stopped while on our trip to buy a solid latex mattress which we love. It does seem much better than the norm. So, if you aren't starting with a delicate back, you will probably be fine.

Hey Tam,
Just started looking at replacing with Latex mattress. Which one did you purchase? Did it fit without any issues?

We added a 3” foam topper to the mattress in our Escape 21
Big improvement because now my wife is not complaining about sleeping in our Escape
The $200 was money well spent IMHO

My wife and I sleep on a Tempur-Pedic mattress at home, we found the Escape mattress comfort lacking the same feel as our home unit. I bought a queen sized Tempur-Pedic from our local mattress company and I cut it down to fit the bed area on our 2019 21C, perfection now!

We kept the mattress in our 21NE. It's a good mattress. My wife is VERY fussy about mattresses, pillows, down comforters, etc and we're sticking with the original mattress.

I like a firm matress and I sleep very well on it. We did add a 2" memory foam pad to her side of the mattress and now she sleeps blissfully as well.
