Shopping for a mattress is easy when you need a standard size, but what do you do when your needs go beyond what is readily available on the market?
Whether you need a mattress made for your RV, boat, plane, or a round bed, custom mattresses are designed to suit your exact requirements, ensuring a perfect fit and a great night’s sleep. In this article, we’ll take a look at the different awkward situations that custom bedding solves and how to choose a mattress that fits your needs.
1. RVs and Campers
When you need at-home comfort on the road, you must invest in the right mattress for your RV or camper. Whether you only hit the road occasionally, or you are a full-time traveler, sleeping well will ensure you are ready and alert for the next day of driving and in great spirits.
The problem with many RVs is that their mattresses are often hard and uncomfortable. A lightweight, latex foam custom RV mattress is the answer, providing comfort and durability without weighing down your vehicle.
2. Boats
Who says life on the ocean waves can’t be comfortable? While it’s true that space is at a premium on most marine crafts, it doesn’t mean you have to compromise when it comes to choosing a good-quality mattress.
A custom-cut latex foam mattress for boats is one of the best options for boats as it will not crumble or disintegrate over time when exposed to mild moisture. In addition to a custom boat mattress, you might also want to consider a waterproof cover to add further protection to your mattress.
3. Planes
In the past, unless you were prepared to pay a premium rate for premium travel (complete with private cabins and beds), sleeping on an airplane was never really a comfortable experience.
Today, thanks to consumer demand and advances in mattress design and materials, custom airplane mattresses can be made and installed that ensure passengers can catch some shut-eye on the red-eye and wake refreshed, ready to explore their next destination.
4. Diesel Trucks
When you are driving heavy or hazardous loads across the country, you need to have your wits about you at all times. That means getting a good night’s sleep between truck stops.
Driver fatigue is a serious problem and one that a comfortable mattress can help avoid. No matter what size truck bed mattress you require, a mattress service will fit out your rig so that you have all the comforts of home while out on the road.
5. Round and Antique Beds
There are many beds on the market that push the boundaries of furniture design which were made years before standard sizing became the norm.
Whether you have chosen a quirky round bed for your home or you have inherited an antique bed frame that is simply too good to pass up, a custom mattress can be made to fit your bed perfectly. Using your exact measurements and your foam preference, a good mattress company can create a mattress that is cut to the exact size and shape of your bed.
6. Horse Trailers
Traveling to horse events often requires hours of driving, early mornings, and long days. Getting plenty of sleep is essential.
If you are lucky enough to own a horse trailer with its own living quarters, you may have noticed that the mattress is not as comfortable as it could be. A custom horse trailer mattress is the perfect solution and can be made to fit the space you have available perfectly at tailored mattress companies like Tochta.
7. Tiny Homes
With the rising popularity of minimalist lifestyles and the growing trend of tiny homes, more and more individuals are embracing the concept of compact living. However, living in a small space comes with its own set of challenges, especially when it comes to furnishing and designing the sleeping quarters.
Given the unique dimensions of tiny home sleeping areas, standard-sized mattresses simply won’t fit the bill. By tailoring the mattresses to the specific dimensions of the sleeping quarters, homeowners can maximize space while ensuring optimal comfort for a good night’s sleep.
8. Studio Apartments
The unique challenge of living in a studio apartment is designing the space in a way that serves multiple functions seamlessly. A mattress that fits snugly into a daybed can serve as a comfortable sofa during the day, but it also effortlessly transforms into a cozy bed at night, maximizing the limited space available.
Furthermore, a custom mattress can also be designed to suit the dimensions of a loft bed, providing additional headroom and creating valuable storage space underneath. Get creative to make your studio apartment a truly multifunctional living space that optimizes every square inch.
9. Bunk Beds
Custom mattresses can be designed to fit perfectly within the confines of a bunk bed structure, ensuring safety and comfort for the sleeper. This not only ensures a snug and secure fit but also prioritizes the sleeper’s well-being by eliminating any gaps or looseness.
Additionally, custom bunk bed mattresses can be made with hypoallergenic and anti-microbial materials, creating a sleep environment that promotes health and wellness for children. With these specialized features, parents can rest assured knowing that their little ones are sleeping on a mattress that not only provides comfort but also prioritizes their overall well-being.
10. Loft Spaces
Lofts present a unique challenge due to their often irregular dimensions and low ceiling heights. A customized mattress can be constructed to accommodate these exact specifications, providing a comfortable sleeping solution that fits seamlessly into the loft environment without taking up too much space.
Imagine sinking into a plush, yet supportive mattress, perfectly contoured to fit the unique shape of your loft to ensure that every inch of space is utilized efficiently. With this tailored solution, you can fully maximize your loft’s potential, creating a cozy oasis where you can rest and rejuvenate after a long day.
How to Take Exact Measurements for Your Mattress
To ensure a perfect fit, you must take accurate measurements when ordering your mattress. Follow the instructions below before using our custom mattress builder:
Using a tape measure, take the measurements of the widest width and the longest length. Most people will make their mattress about 1″ smaller in width and length in order to leave about 1/2″ of wiggle room around the edges for sheets, blankets, and other bedding. If you have an oddly shaped mattress (for example, round), speak to our team for details on how to take measurements. Also, note down the height of your mattress, especially if you are fitting a new mattress in an area with low ceiling clearance or a low headboard.
The Benefits of a Quality Mattress for Your Sleep Health
No matter where you are, don’t settle for a cramped space or a thin coat. Having a quality mattress that is tailored to your exact needs not only improves the comfort of your sleeping quarters but also has significant impacts on your overall sleep health.
A customized mattress can reduce back pain and pressure points, promote better spinal alignment, and provide the right level of support for your body. It can also improve overall sleep quality, leading to increased energy and productivity during the day.
