Hello all,
The bed is a bit of an unusual shape and size. What are you guys using for sheets and the rest of the stuff ?

my wife custom made our sheets and blankets. i think alot of newell beds are not standard size or shape.
even though i made my own bed (literally, or at least a buddy of mine made it for me), my mattress was custom sized and has round bottom corners.

Yeah, if you price bedding from the mothership, you will quickly make it yourself or hire a seamstress.

We had the same conundrum when we got our coach. We put a queen Sleep Number (which we love) and chucked the rounded bed... I still need to extend the end of the bed, it's in the list... I think the difference is that with the rounded bed you can get around if the slide is in...

On our 1998 the bed was an Olympic queen size. Don't remember the exact size but it was a bit wider and shorter than a standard queen. Search for Olympic queen and compare the sizes, maybe that'll help.
