4. Accessories: Pillows + Sheets + Blankets
Once you’ve decided on your ultimate sleep solution, you can’t skip out on accessories! While standards sizes typically work in an RV, factors like materials, ease of care, temperature moderation and more play into a quality night’s sleep.
As a rule of thumb, sheets made of natural materials—like cotton,
Tencel and
bamboo—are more breathable and, therefore, sleep cooler.
Microfiber sheets tend to sleep warmer (if that’s your ideal) and are highly durable over time.
When it comes to choosing a pillow, both materials and loft matter. You can get a detailed look at how to
choose the best pillow based on sleep position here. If you tend to sleep hot, look for
cooling technology and
ventilated foams that will assure a temperature neutral surface.
You also can’t forget to cover up come nightfall. Depending on the temperature outdoors, and the indoor RV temperature you’ll either want to keep cool or keep warm. Weighted blankets like
Brooklyn Bedding’s Chunky Knit Weighted Blanket can work great in ever-changing temperature struggles. One side gives you that traditional cozy warmth of a blanket while the other gives you a satisfying cooling, so you can achieve amazing sleep, no matter what the thermostat says.
