We found the biggest problem with a large mattress is getting it into the unit and up the steps to the bedroom and then getting it turned to put on the bed. We solved that problem totally by purchasing a Sleep Number mattress and will not go back to a regular mattress again. We actually have four of them. We have one in the Monte, one at the farmhouse, and two in our house we call our main house in Omaha. One in our bedroom and our old one in one of the other bedrooms also. The farmhouse is a king and all the others are queens. They are exceptionally easy to move and set up. The only thing I had to do in the Monte was drill two holes in the bedframe to accommodate the two hoses running from the compressor and one for the power cord. The compressor does not run unless you operate the remote control to adjust the pressure to each of the air bladders. The weight of the Sleep Number mattress is actually less than or just over 50 lbs total so that is another advantage besides a great sleep. The only con I can think of is you have to let some air out of the bladders when you go up in altitude when traveling. That can be corrected as soon as you arrive at your destination by setting the firmness for each side to your likings. Think about the Sleep Number mattress you won't go wrong.
