This is what I got for the current trailer. (4 Star had tons of head room so could have a thicker mattress - current one does not, so looked for the most comfortable, but on the thinner side & we LOVE this!) At the time, they offered a 5.5# one & that was what I got.

We just bought a trailer with a full size (wanted a queen). We searched just about every mattress store in town - OK City - that's alot of town! Couldn't find any place cheaper than Sam's, so we bought a queen mattress there. I wish someone could have given us a better price, but it wasn't even close. It's a Serta. The only thing bad - I was so excited about having enough space to raise up ALL the way in the GN without bumping your head - well this mattress is so tall it took up more space than the cheapy and therefore I still have to keep my head lowered while in the GN. One more thing - it was VERY difficult to get the queen mattress in the GN with all the cabinets and such. Once you get it in there, it's there to stay!! That's why I didn't take it back to get a shorter one - my husband would not have NOT been happy about trying to get it back out!!

Head room is a problem in my gooseneck, so I use a queensize sleeper sofa mattress-about 4" thick. It's more comfortable in the gooseneck than it was in the sofa. I got mine for free from a friend who was getting rid of the sofa and had never even used the mattress - it was brand new still in the plastic. They can be purchased from the mattress stores for about $200.
