is there an easier way to change the sheets than to pull up the mattress to get the sheets under the mattress?

I added a memory foam topper to my rpod's bed some time ago. I just put the fitted sheet over the topper and don't worry about getting it on the mattress too.

Outbound, What a great idea! I was wondering the same thing about the mattress and you came up with a perfect solution. I'm not new to camping or using an rv, but I am a new pod owner. So far, I love the pod. This forum is great for fellow pod owners to share information and ideas. It's still very cold here in the midwest, so I have not been able to take the pod out for our maiden voyage, but as soon as it warms up a little, we're outta here!!

Someone mentioned yesterday that the perfect fit sheet is a Message Table sheet set. I have ordered to see if it will work as stated but thought it was a good idea.

Here is the link that was provided:

Well, shucks!

To be honest, the great idea came when I put a heated mattress pad on the memory foam topper and fastened it in place using small safety pins (fastened underneath of the topper, attached to the topper's cover). The heated mattress pad doesn't shift around with use, the safety pins aren't felt through the topper, and I can turn on the heat anytime its cool at night. The fitted sheet pops on easily overtop the heated mattress pad.
