bmrplatinum Posted June 21, 2022 Posted June 21, 2022 I am considering upgrading the current mattress to a Tochta. Has anyone tried this mattress and if so, what are you thoughts?
johnwen Posted June 21, 2022 Posted June 21, 2022 We had the KTT but it was falling apart at the seams, still under warranty. OTT gave us the choice of the KTT vs the Totchta and we chose the Tochta. No regrets....is much more comfortable for us. Considering its durability, time will tell. Good luck. Really, I don't think OTT would mind if you took a short nap on one their showroom models :) John 3 Oliver II #996 "Bessie", 2019 Silverado LTZ 5.3, Veterans https://wenandjohnsadventure.com/

We liked laying on the Totcha but didn't like sitting on them. We thought about ordering KTT direct from KTT but your comment doesn't make me feel good about that. Brian

Brian Hi Brian, They were 2 months old! Don't know if anyone else had any problems. Both mattresses had issues. I've asked 4 or 5 couples and they indicated they had no problems.

I just spoke to Dick, one of the owners at KTT, he said if you are having issues and are unhappy to call them and they will get you information on how to get the covers repaired or replaced.

Brian Thanks, Brian, We traded the KTTs out at Oliver back in May. We're happy with the Tochtas. They are actually a lot lighter than the KTTs and easier to move around for hatch access.

Eddy Posted September 14, 2022 Posted September 14, 2022 Hi, I am new to Oliver trailer and this forum, still learning ... Apologize if the format is not up to standard 😅 I have a question about the custom made mattress for a Elite II floor plan bed. Specifically the size of the custom cut mattress from Tochta. We own a 2021 Oliver Elite II. We are thinking of ordering a tochta mattress. We have the standard floorplan, so we measured the bed to be 76" long 79" wide with top two corners of about 12-16" radius. We called the factory and they said people normally leave 0.5" margin on all sides when ordering custom made mattresses. We are about to order a mattress from Tochta of 75" long 78" wide and 14" radius top corners. Does any of you had experience with ordering from Tochta and what size did you use? Thanks in advance, Danna
Jps190 Posted October 1, 2022 Posted October 1, 2022 Has anyone ended up ordering a King mattress from Tochta? We are going to convert from the twins to a King and this seems like the best option. What dimensions did you go with? John John and Kim 2021 GMC Sierra 2500 AT4 6.6L Duramax 11350 GVWR 3048lb Payload 2021 Oliver Elite II. Hull #887

Thanks in advance, Danna My guess is that if Oliver offers it as an option, the folks at Tochta already have the patterns for the Oliver trailers. I'd check with them. 4 2018 Elite II, Hull #414 (the very last 2018 produced). Trailer name "2 HOBOS" . 2018 F250 4X4 Crew Cab, 6.7L diesel
Jps190 Posted December 9, 2022 Posted December 9, 2022 I finally got this project done. I ended up ordering a mattress from Tochta with dimensions of 78x75x10. When I put the mattress in the trailer and unpackaged it the actual dimensions we 78x77 which was too long. There was zero room around the top and bottom of the mattress. I called Tochta and they asked me to send pictures of the measurements. They got back to me and offered to give me $400 back if this mattress would work or to just have me donate this one and they would send me a new one. I chose a new one with dimensions of 76x74x10. It arrived less than a week later and fits perfectly. Mattress is very comfortable and Tochta's customer service is top notch!

Moderators topgun2 Posted December 9, 2022 Moderators Posted December 9, 2022 Nicely done and good for Tochta. Perhaps this proves that there are companies other than Oliver that do business the way it should be done.

Are you asking this question because you want to fabricate a mattress yourself? If yes then I faintly recall someone here on the Forum giving those dimensions.
