Mattress size

[daveinaz]

The brochure that came with our Montana 3400RL says that it came with a 80" x 60" queen mattress standard, with a king size as an option.

We were going to replace the mattress and found that the PO had already replaced it a few years ago -- but the replacement mattress is only 72" x 48" or so which appears to be a 3/4 size mattress. I measured the platform and it's about the same size.

So I'm wondering if the 3400RL really came originally with a 80" x 60" RV queen mattress, and if so, if it hangs off the platform on the edges or if the PO may have cut down the platform. I also see that platform is not the same size all the way around. It is narrower up by the headboard side and wider on the foot side where it lifts up for the storage. Is it normal for the mattress to hany over the platform a half foot or so on the sides?

Thanks.

I'm certain that is how ours is ,albeit a king size mattress. It is larger that the platform sits ones the sheets don't have to go over the platform also,Im guessing is the reason.

The platform should be just short of the mattress size it sounds like some one cut the platform up to fit that funny sized mattress you have! ares came with a king mattress but we cut down to fit a queen size one so we more room around the bed.
