    is a futon mattress OK for vanlife?

    The futon is comfortable for me. I've slept on a futon mattress for many years. Thanks so much for your advice! I appreciate it.

    Thank you for your thoughtful response. It sounds like the futon mattress will work for at least a little while and I just bought a foam egg shell topper that I'm hoping with deter moisture from accumulating also. Thanks again! I really appreciate your insights.

    Oh no! That sounds horrible! Thanks for the support. It looks like it's going to be OK, the futon. I have a futon frame with slats. Thanks again and take care.

    is a futon mattress OK for vanlife?

    Thank you! Your tip is very helpful and it does sound like I can get by with my futon mattress as long as I have good ventilation and a fan. I don't have a ceiling fan but I have a little fan. And the frame has lots of slats so that should be good it sounds like. Thank you so much for your help...

    Hi, Thanks for your reply. yes i have a futon frame with slats that I put in the van. That's what i was afraid of was the moisture getting into the mattress and causing mold.

    is a futon mattress OK for vanlife?

    Hi All, I have a single size futon mattress made of cotton (I'm not sure what's inside but the outside is cotton) and I wonder if it's ok to use in my van, if condensation won't keep it moist and then create mold. I'm coming to the RTR 2022 and feeling the pressure to be ready by then. I'm a...

    rated current vs starting current

    This is helpful. I want to use a vitamix blender also in the van but have a 500 watt inverter (not sure if it's continuous) so it looks like that won't be enough. I was hoping that my inverter would at least run a nutribullet, but it looks like not, either. May have to eat my smoothies for a...

    Hi there (not yet van dwelling but moving toward it)

    Hi All,  Although I've thought of traveling across country now that I have some time, I'm new to the idea of being a van dweller. It's only been 2 months since I saw a movie called the Meaning of Van Life which started me on researching van dwelling. And of course that's how I found Bob Wells...
