    I have this mattress and it's amazing to sleep on. We use it for the kids to have movie nights in the living room on the weekends and sometimes I pass out on it.

    We have another one that we have used for several years now that we would add to our pull out couch for guests and it really makes a difference. I’m super stoked to have a full sized bed to sleep on when I head out camping, and it won’t deflate halfway through the night.

    I have those on my truck. Bought the topper in 2013. Just replaced the original weather stripping on them this weekend, never had a problem with them.

    So RSI purchase fell through. Waited way too long for a response so I canx the whole thing. Looking at a softopper til I can figure things out.

    For those that have them and use them in dirt, off road, and always outside, how do they hold up?

    Will be on the road from mid April thru July property hunting in WY, MT, and the Dakotas. Almost all of my travels in Wyoming and Montana for the first 6 weeks will be on unpaved county roads. Not worried about dust. After spending 5 years in the big sandbox I can deal with dust.

    It’s going to get abused for 4 months. No cleaning no care just miles dirt mud and dust. Rain after I leave WY and MT. Want to make sure I’m not throwing money someplace I shouldn’t.

    Thanks

    Thanks. What I was looking for. They are 900 bucks now so wanted to make sure I wasn’t making a bad choice.

    Also not a bad idea to look for a used one if you can

    Yeah like @dirtnsmores said it holds up great. Mine's been on for about 4ish years now, and only gets a bath once a year maybe? It gets pretty brown after long trail runs, but always cleans up well.

    Echoing @dirtnsmores, mine has held up well just like many other’s. For the 2 years I’ve had it, it has held up to the PNW weather being outside 24/7.

    I tried not many here in VA have one. Most are for 6 ft beds. Even willing to pick one up on the way out. What’s meant to be will be.

    Correct, I have the short 5’ box on mine. I purchased the DAC Camper Tent so that I could have the tailgate down, creating more leg room.
