The Fleetwood Advantage
SUPERIOR FLOOR/BED CONSTRUCTION
To provide long-term
durability, we know to
use only high quality onepiece
Weyerhaeuser
Structurwood®. Some
competitors boast of using
plywood, but look closely–
you'll likely see voids,
knotholes, and thin
stapled-on splices that are
prone to squeaks and
separation. And some
competitors want you to
think floor undercoating
is beneficial, but
"Weyerhaeuser agrees with Fleetwood’s practice of not coating the exposed bottom surface of
the Structurwood® panels used in their trailers. In our opinion, moisture from occupancy load,
or from other internal or external sources may become trapped in the Structurwood® substrate
if it is coated on the underside with a system that impairs the ability of the substrate to dry
thoroughly. Trapped moisture, over time, may cause premature decay or rot." Weyerhaeuser
- We reinforce every bed with a full-perimeter aluminum frame and support channels, and we
rate them to 1,100lbs capacity (750lbs on Taos and Cobalt).
- All Fleetwood beds feature self-storing support legs that set up easily and cannot be
misplaced or lost. Look closely – most competitors use detached poles – like tent poles, they
must be preassembled and stored separately.
- Our mattresses feature a comfort-engineered polyester fiber that is hypoallergenic and
comfortably soft and supportive. Kick off your shoes and take a rest.
- Some competitors boast of heated mattresses. We do not believe electric mattresses are
practical for the rigors of camping use.
