Airstream sheets can have an 11" radius curve at the foot. I also find the head in the sideways queens is not square, the mattress tapers towards the rear.

Lost the thread. We have the "MY Pillow" Queen RV sheet set, and the Mattress topper from "My Pillow". Good quality, and excellent fit.

We love our Airstream 600 thread twin bed sheets on our 2014 Classic.

Never make your rv bed again. Just zip it up in the morning. We love them in Airstream trailers. Have used queen and twins. All great. Here is link to Beddy’s

Good luck and enjoy!

Thanks, Suzbp! I will do just that.

I went a new direction because the bed always looked unmade as the comforter never was square on the bed.
So I purchased a "Beddy" on sale around Christmas. Haven't put it on yet, but I hear it's snug enough to fit RV mattresses.
A Beddy is a combination of sleeping bag and sheet set. To make the bed you simply zip it closed.

You may also want to consider https://beddys.com/. They're an all in one solution which I have found to be very comfortable and solves the problem of making the bed. I learned about them from a couple of RV YouTube channels.

I get the sheets from the Airstream store. I suppose they are a bit pricey but fit and quality are great, especially if you have those odd contours.

phowe46 · 10-04-2020, 01:46 PM

We have twin beds in our FB FC and just ordered from Better Bedder (www.thebetterbedder.com). We ordered a custom size and once you get them on the mattresses, it is super simple to keep the sheets tucked in AND to make and change the sheets. We use flat sheets now (XL twin) on both top and bottom and so simple. No lifted mattresses, no funky mess in the morning.

Anyone know.of fitted sheets for our 2020 Basecamp?
We put beds.together and it's almost a king, odd shaped of course. Thanks. .

Hi there! For our boat bed and for our Airstream FB queen bed we buy our sheets at Qua Hog Bay Bedding. Our bottom sheets are "cinch" sheets that go around the awkward shaped mattresses, under them and "cinch" in. They stay tight that way. Double check the depth of your mattress. You may have to customize the depth of the sheet. For instance our mattress is 11" so it needed extra on the sides. Anyway they are really great.

twbucksr · 10-06-2020, 06:40 AM

First off, we full time. We went thru 2 a sets of AB Lifestyles sheets on our 22 FB. Not worth the price. Used regular queen sheets with suspenders but that was a huge PITA. Finally sold the 22 FB and purchased a 27FBQ 3 years ago.

We had some queen sheets with elastic end caps on the fitted that worked great but finally wore out but we could not find them again. We are now using 100% polyester sheets from Target. Fitted sheet stays on. Comfortable. Best part is they dry really fast in the laundromat.

TonyaJLong · 10-07-2020, 12:14 PM

AB Lifestyles... Great customer service, too. Love the top sheet feature with the elastic at the bottom. Yes, they're pricey (but far less expensive than the sheets on the Airstream Supply Company site), but IMHO they're worth it. The sheets are custom-made for the AS mattresses and the material is very high quality (we got the Italian cotton). We also ordered their waterproof mattress cover (ditto to everything said above). A+.

Got ya covered...MyPillow.com actually have the RV queen sheets and they fit perfectly. I have two sets and they are great.

Phambemiss · 10-09-2020, 11:55 AM

Hmm.... my pillow.com sheets are what we have but the queen is way to big for the queen in our AS.

Posse96 · 10-12-2020, 09:21 PM

I agree AB Lifestyles offer sheets with fitted sheets designed for Airstream's unique mattress shape. I like them as they are somewhat USA made. The sheets are made of CA cotton, but woven into sheets in Italy, then shipped back to AB who does the trim work. I buy my blankets and pillows from CozyPure. Their sheets, blankets, all are fully woven and made in the US. I've got them in discussions to start making sheets for Airstreams and they have moved my correspondence to the Production Manager. If you're looking for blankets, comforter, pillows, I highly recommend CozyPure. The organic cotton blankets are incredible.

Great recommendation, thanks!

Marigolden · 05-18-2021, 03:19 AM

I apologize for being a complete noob. We have a lovely 2019 30-foot Airstream. There is a Queen (?) bed in the back, and then the front parts fold out to accommodate a couple more sleepers. We have owned our beautiful trailer for nearly a year now, but have not been able to get it properly titled and licensed because of COVID. Now it seems that we can. My very elderly father is in a bad way. We have to get from Virginia down to Texas ...now. Could anyone please, please just tell me what to do for mattress pads and sheets for the sleeping areas? I am sorry to sound like an idiot. I just do not understand what to purchase. We need to have people sleep both in the back and the front of the trailer, and I would think that a mattress pad and sheets would be in order, but I am completely bewildered. Add to this the stress of an urgent family situation and I feel a bit at wits’ end. Our governor has decided that we can now go to the Department of Motor Vehicles a little more easily, thank goodness ...so we will be there tomorrow ... any advice from anybody would be appreciated. We’ll take sleeping bags if we have to, but I would still be grateful to know what to do to make the beds properly. Thanks in advance.

Welcome to the forum . . . sorry about your Dad. You will find that earlier posts, in a thread like this, very often have helpful links IMO.

Sleep tight!

It is amazing, looking back today, how many other posts echo that AB Lifetyles bedding works great IMO. We have been very happy with our mattress pad and sheets.

Happy Trails,

BTW, for noobs, RV queen is most likely a "short queen".
At home a queen is 60" x 80" whilea short queen is 60" x 75".
The Beddy I use is made for a queen, but it's elastic enough to fit pretty well on a short queen.

For other sleeping areas I've had for years a Travasak. It's basically a queen sleeping bag with sheets held by velcro. I think Travasak was bought by RV Superbag.
