Roof Top Tent Mattress RTM 1400

Back Saver

On the fence about this mattress

I have a Darche panorama 2 roof top tent. I have tried multiple approaches to my sleeping mat/bedding, but have not found the perfect solution. 1) Tried just the original foam mattress the tent comes with. This is the most convenient, but is not overly comfortable. The mattress is foam only so lying on your side gets uncomfortable. 2) Tried the original foam mattress, and added a thin air mattress underneath it. This works ok, but given the restrictions on space, the separate air mattress needs to be stored separately. Plus there is the hassle of having to inflate it and put it in/take it out every time you close the tent. 3) Tried 2x darche foam mattresses. This is actually the most comfortable, by a long shot. The second mattress has to be stored separately and put in/taken out when closing tent. However, it takes less time to setup than inflating an air mattress. The downside is how much space the second mattress takes up in my vehicle. 4) Tried this RTM1400 air mattress. While it is more comfortable than a single darche foam mattress, it is not more comfortable than 2x darche foam mattresses. The inflation process takes about the same time as just putting a second mattress up in the tent. The downsides to this air mattress is that its noisy. Whatever the material is made of, it makes a crunchy/wooshy sound as you move in bed. Plus the crack is right at the point where my girlfriends backside is, so she falls through the crack and finds it annoying. While this mattress does compress relatively compact when you roll it up, it does not compact as well when you fold it up inside the tent. My preference: if I have storage room, I bring the second foam mattress. If I don't, I go with this air mattress.
