Traveling in your Mercedes Sprinter Van can be a thrilling experience, providing the freedom to explore new destinations and the opportunity to experience life on the road. However, a comfortable night’s sleep is one of the most crucial aspects of a successful camper van trip.
Adequate sleep is essential for physical and mental health; without it, your travel experience can quickly become a nightmare.
You should invest in a quality mattress and bedding to ensure a comfortable night’s sleep when traveling in a Mercedes Sprinter. The Sprinter van mattress should provide adequate support and cushioning to promote a restful night’s sleep.
My partner and I are currently converting a Sprinter van, and I’ve made the bed a top priority, so I already did the research for you! I’ve gathered the best van mattresses on the market that will make your Sprinter van mattress feel just as comfortable as a bed in a regular home.
What We’re Using for our Sprinter Van Mattress
Since we also live on a sailboat, we went the unconventional route with our Sprinter van mattress. Since we love our sailboat’s foam, we went with the same company in our Sprinter van. Sailrite is known for making high-quality marine foam for boats, so we put this exact same foam in our camper van.
We like a pretty firm mattress, and we didn’t want to lose headroom with our bed design. For that reason, we went with 1″ of firm foam and 2″ of medium foam from Sailrite. This is an amazing combination; it never bottoms out and is incredibly comfortable.
Of course, 3″ of foam might not seem like enough to you, but to us, it’s Sprinter van mattress perfection. Keep in mind that Sailrite foam is not precut and doesn’t come in standard bed sizes. You’ll have to order slabs of foam and then cut them to fit your bed layout. We ordered the foam cutter from Sailrite as well and it did a beautiful job.
