Lifting Up Mattress
Maybe it is just me, but it seems rather hard to lift the mattress to reach storage. Has anybody installed gas struts to make it easier?

Hmm, our '15 27 FC FB has struts that hold up the bed for access. Yours doesn't?

If the bed stays up once it's lifted, you struts are probablyy ok.
