I would say its comparable to sleeping in a queen size to a king size bed. 3/4 width to full width that is.

You know what i mean!

Full Width or 3/4 width!


I'm talkin about -
Do you sacrifice storage space by having a full WIDTH bed/ seat?

With a full WIDTH seat is their room to fit a cooker & fridge in a 25?

Anyway my miss's prefers full lenth- but thats another story!

Well ...yes storage is affected not so noticable if you have a high top or there are no children to cater for.
The fitting of cookers and fridges is not affected.
the full width is a luxury but I,m happy with the 3/4 as I have a wardrobe to leap off.

when my bed is down there is approx 800mm space to the back of the drivers seat In which there's a unit with combined sink and hob 3way fridge and storage cupboard on one side. not much storage space but then having a high top and there being only me and the missus that is not a problem for us.

I'd go for the smaller option,our full width is more roomy & as comfy as bed at home but get so frustrated at lack of storage space.Am looking at possible cutting ours down for next year..

Depends really. I have a full width in my splitty which is great because I can get a 3 point seat belts on each side. However it's not a walk through so I have more storage there and it's mor of a day van with the odd overnight at shows. A 3/4 is more suitable for a 4 berth camper I think.
