2. We are planning on getting a mattress topper (nice latex memory foam that we have on all of the beds). The brand we purchase even has a short queen version. So, how well does that work with the folding bed? Do you have to anything special to keep it in place?
3. How the heck to you keep the bed made up when you fold it? Inquiring minds want to know.
4. Did you buy short queen sheets, or simply buy the regular sheets and tuck the excess?

Welcome. Our experience doesn't include much mattress sliding. It sometimes slides an inch or two fore and aft. We do use a topper and it folds nicely with the bed made up. Our bed folds and stays folded... We do remove the pillows when folding. We keep the bed made up when folded...does need to be touched up when unfolding. We use reg Queen sheets. We find the bed very comfortable. We love our little RV and it's bed.... But not the axerra radio. Btw...A bedroom radio tip...there is a brightness control on the raidio display... A door tip. We hung a shoe organizer on the bedroom door or some extra stuff and wife's shoes.
