Hello all,
One drawback with, what is otherwise a great conversion by Autosleeper, is the bed...it's a little cumbersome to set it up! So I was wondering if it was possible to replace it with a R&R bed. Has anybody tried it?
Will a R&R bed fit into an Autosleeper?

It's not bad Kev but doesn't compare with a R&R bed so I would replace it if it was possible. My only reservation with this though is that I think an R&R bed requires a little more space underneath, & would mean it would sit a bit further forward which then obstructs access to a cupboard.
I just wondered if anybody else has considered & even attempted it.

Yes you're right, it would require more width and come further forward when a seat.

I thought so too Kev. It wouldn't be worth losing that bit of floor space & the cupboard. The guys at Autosleeper seemed to know what they we're doing when it came to styling, space & ease of use. I still think it one of the best conversions.

Hi Trevor, I tried a R&R bed in the Autosleeper and it wouldn't fit, there is not enough width. I bought it and the guy was fitting it at Vanfest but gave up after a couple of hours and refunded me as it was just to tight.
