Camping World Mattress Reviews (2026)

Camping World’s mattress lineup leans RV-first: short queens, RV kings, and bunk-friendly sizes, with a mix of all-foam value beds and one notably more “home-like” hybrid. I focused on support, cooling, pressure relief, motion isolation, responsiveness, edge support, and durability. The best fit depends on whether you need easy movement and stronger support, or a softer foam feel for pressure relief.

Product overview

Testing team takeaways in one minute

We kept coming back to the Dreamfoam Hybrid when we wanted the most even performance—support, cooling feel, and easier movement all landed above the foam models. The Cozyway 10" Gel Foam was the quietest and most “pressure-friendly” of the group. The Dreamfoam Essential 6" worked best when height and firmness mattered more than plushness. The Independent Furniture Supply 8" foam option was comfortable and stable, but it ran warmer and felt slower to move on.

How we tested these mattresses

I rotated these mattresses through the same RV-platform setup and a standard slatted base to see how they handled different foundations. We scored Support, Cooling, Pressure Relief, Motion Isolation, Responsiveness, Edge Support, and Durability using overnight notes, seated edge checks, and slow-roll repositioning drills. Marcus Reed (6'1", ~230 lbs) pushed for heat and hip support; Carlos Alvarez (5'11", ~175 lbs) tracked spinal leveling; Mia Chen (5'4", ~125 lbs) focused on shoulder and hip pressure in side sleep.

Camping World Mattress: our testing notes by model

Cozyway 10" Gel Foam Mattress

Our Testing Experience

I set this one up as a short queen in a tighter RV bedroom where you feel every inch of clearance. The first thing I noticed was the “cooler than expected” hand feel under the cover, and the foam stack didn’t bottom out when I shifted from back to side. Mia called out that her shoulder could sink without her neck feeling cranked, while Marcus still wanted a touch more pushback under his hips when he rolled forward.

What we liked:

• Quiet, deadened surface on partner movement

• Noticeably cushioned shoulder/hip feel for side sleep

• Less “stuffy” than basic foam in the first hour

Who it is best for:

• Lightweight-to-average side sleepers

• RV short queen shoppers upgrading thin stock beds

• Anyone who hates motion ripple

Where it falls short:

• Edge compresses when sitting to put on shoes

• Slower to “snap back” when you reposition

Brooklyn Bedding Medium 10.25" Dreamfoam Hybrid Mattress

Our Testing Experience

This was the closest to a “real bedroom” feel once it was on the RV platform. I could feel the top quilted layer settle, then the surface handed off to the coil system when I rolled onto my side. Marcus immediately liked the extra under-hip resistance, and Carlos kept coming back to how smoothly it transitioned from plush to supportive without a weird mid-back bow. For me, it was the easiest to work on a laptop in bed—less sink, more stable posture—then still comfortable when I dropped into side sleep.

What we liked:

• Stronger lift under hips and lumbar

• Easier turning; less “stuck” feel

• Cooling-on-contact sensation at the surface

Who it is best for:

• Combination sleepers (back/side switching)

• Heavier bodies needing more structure

• RV owners who want a hybrid feel

Where it falls short:

• Not as dead-quiet as all-foam

• Taller profile can matter in tight RV frames

Brooklyn Bedding Firm 6" Dreamfoam Essential Mattress

Our Testing Experience

I treated this one like a “problem solver” mattress: low height, firm surface, and lots of RV sizing options. In a bunk-style setup, the 6" profile mattered immediately—less crowding against railings and cabinets. Carlos liked that it held a flatter, firmer line under the mid-back, but Mia tapped out faster on side sleep because the comfort layer is simply thinner. For me, it worked best when I stayed mostly on my back, then took short stomach naps without feeling my hips dip.

What we liked:

• Firm, stable feel for back/stomach sleep

• Low profile for clearance-sensitive bunks

• Clean transition—no mushy mid-layer

Who it is best for:

• Back sleepers who want a firmer foam surface

• Stomach sleepers who need flatter support

• RV bunks or low-profile platforms

Where it falls short:

• Side sleepers may want more depth and give

• Edges feel more compressible when perched

Pros & Cons

Details

• Price shown in RV mattress list: $219.99 (price varies by size)

• Thickness: 6.00"

• Type: All-foam

• Advertised notes: 6" version recommended for stomach or back sleepers; suited to bunk/bed profile limits

Independent Furniture Supply 8" Memory Foam Mattress

Our Testing Experience

This mattress felt like the most traditional “memory foam” of the group—quiet, conforming, and a little slower to respond. When I lay back after a long desk day, it took the edge off my lower-back tightness, but I also had to give it a second when I rolled to my side so it could catch up. Mia liked the gentler contouring at the shoulder, while Marcus flagged heat buildup faster than on the hybrid and wanted more immediate hip lift. If you like that classic foam hug, this one delivered; if you want bounce, it didn’t.

What we liked:

• Very low motion transfer in shared sleep

• Comfortable contouring for lighter side sleepers

• Even, predictable foam feel across the surface

Who it is best for:

• Guests or occasional RV trips

• Sleepers who prefer a slower, hugging foam feel

• Light-to-average weight side/back sleepers

Where it falls short:

• Warmer, “foamier” feel during long nights

• Less supportive edge when sitting

Pros & Cons

Details

• Price shown in RV mattress list: $269.99 (price varies by size)

• Thickness: 8.00"

• Type: All-foam

• Construction (listed): 1.5" 100% memory foam over 6.5" high-density urethane base foam

• Sizes listed: 29" bunk (29" x 72"), 34" bunk (34" x 74"), Full (54" x 75"), Short Queen (60" x 75"), Queen (60" x 80"), Short King (72" x 75"), RV King (72" x 80"), King (76" x 80")

Review Score

Performance score comparison

The numbers tell a clear story: the Dreamfoam Hybrid is the most even performer, with no true weak category and a real advantage in support and responsiveness. The two foam beds split priorities—Cozyway leans cooler and more balanced, while Independent Furniture Supply wins motion isolation but gives up cooling and “quickness.” The 6" Dreamfoam Essential is the specialist: strong support in a low profile, with pressure relief being the trade-off.

How to choose a Camping World mattress

Start with your RV constraints: exact size (short queen vs. queen), clearance (bunks often need low profile), and whether you sleep hot. If you’re a combo sleeper or heavier body, prioritize the Dreamfoam Hybrid for support and easier turning. If you want quieter foam comfort for side sleep, Cozyway is the steadier pick. For bunks or firm back/stomach sleep, the 6" Dreamfoam Essential fits best. For guest use and maximum motion damping, Independent Furniture Supply is the foam “hug” option.

Limitations to keep in mind

Camping World’s lineup mixes multiple labels and constructions, so the feel isn’t consistent from model to model. Foam options can run warmer and feel less supportive at the edge, especially for heavier bodies. Low-profile beds like the 6" Dreamfoam Essential can feel too firm for side sleepers who need deeper cushioning. Return language on product pages also highlights meaningful restrictions for mattresses, so treat the purchase as more final than a typical “risk-free trial.”

Camping World mattresses vs. a few alternatives

Reasons to choose these: (1) RV-specific sizing is easy to shop, (2) you can pick between budget foam and a more structured hybrid, (3) common RV delivery/installation flow is clearly laid out on the product pages. For alternatives, Mattress Insider focuses on made-to-order RV sizes and promotes free shipping and long guarantees, which can appeal if your RV has odd dimensions. RV Mattress by Brooklyn Bedding emphasizes multiple RV sizes and comfort options and can be a good comparison shop if you want more premium cooling hybrids.

Pro tips for Camping World mattress owners

• Measure the platform, not the label—RV “short queen” and “RV king” can vary by brand and frame.

• In tight RV bedrooms, check overhead cabinet clearance before choosing thicker profiles like 10"+.

• Add airflow under foam mattresses (slatted base or ventilation layer) to reduce heat and moisture.

• Use a breathable protector; thick vinyl-style covers can trap heat on foam.

• Rotate the mattress end-to-end periodically to even out loading in your most-used sleep spot.

• If you sit on the edge daily, prioritize the hybrid or plan to use a small bench/step to reduce edge compression.

• Let boxed foam fully settle before judging firmness; early impressions can skew “too firm” or “too soft.”

• For bunks, match thickness to rail height so sleepers don’t feel exposed near the edge.

• If you sleep hot, pair the bed with moisture-wicking sheets and keep the RV fan/vent cycling overnight.
