Bed sheets that fit?!
Anyone had luck finding bedsheets that actually fit the queen mattress in the Flying Cloud 27 ft 2017? We are tugging and pulling and remaking our bed everyday just to get them to stay somewhat in place.

I've got to second the Ablifestyles. I was put off by the price because I'm tenaciously cheap but I splurged and I'm glad I did. I just went back and ordered some custom waterproof zippered mattress protectors from them.

Another vote for Ablifestyles. One really cool feature that we love is that their top sheet has the elastic on the corners (like a bottom sheet) at the foot of the bed. We have ordered multiple sets from them.
While we are talking about ABlifestyles, we loved the mattress we got from them as well (11 inch).

Airstream sheets have the odd rounded corners and are not always symmetrical.

AB Lifestyles. Fit like a glove!
I bought one set when I got the Airstream about 3 1/2 years ago. Wash them after every trip (~once a month). They have held up great.

So our new International with twin beds hasn’t come in yet, but I assume after reading all of this that regular twin XL sheets won’t fit?

If you go to their web site they have a drop down selector by year and model. Unless the new models are now supplied with rectangular mattresses then regular sheets fit poorly at best.

We like a really comfy bed. So when we purchased our 2019 Serenity, we put on a mattress protector, then a memory foam topper and then a regular pad on top of that. I know it sounds excessive, but its probably more comfy than our bed at home. Put on Egyptian cotton sheets from Kohls, which fit perfectly with this setup, and you won’t want to get out of bed.

Bed Sheets
Do not know what number I am but AB Lifestyles has the best fit
I have 33'FBT classic and sheets were made for exact fit with rounded corners
I did the whole package, a little expensive but a one time buy

23cb sheets
We have a 23 ft. with the corner bed. The sheets are okay, but the bed spread is a killer. It’s really difficult to tuck in on the passenger side of the trailer. Does anyone have a suggestion for a spread that fits & is easier to use on this odd shaped bed?!

Katherinehb I got tired of tucking in 14 extra inches of twin bedspreads too. I recently took my goose down twin comforters (winter bedding) and summer bedspreads to a seamstress and had her cut off and hem wall side of each so now I have short section to tuck against wall. So very happy with result!

Twin XL sheets work fine but we have trouble keeping them from sliding around. Although the bottom sheet has elastic around the rim it, is hard to fit the curved mattress and it will work loose. But, that's life. We just live with the situation.
