Custom RV and truck mattress that feels like a real bedroom bed
Tochta Mattress Review My Experience And Real World Tests
Tochta builds custom mattresses for RVs, trucks, and odd size frames, but the comfort feels like something you would happily sleep on every night at home. I tested the Utopia model in a queen size, walked through the custom build process, and ran my usual pressure and motion tests to see if it holds up against the big online brands.
In my tests the Utopia delivered deep pressure relief, low motion transfer, and true custom sizing for RV and truck setups without feeling like a compromise mattress.
Bottom line
Tochta behaves like a real mattress brand that just happens to specialize in tight spaces. The Utopia I slept on feels closer to a premium bedroom foam mattress than any factory RV pad. If you are tired of thin stock mattresses and need a custom cut that actually fits your rig, Tochta is one of the few options I can recommend with a straight face.

Scores are based on my own testing of the Tochta Utopia in a queen size using a mix of real sleep, bowling ball tests, and edge sit tests in a controlled room.
Feel and firmness
The Utopia lands in the soft to medium range for me. When you first lie down you sink in and the foam wraps around shoulders and hips rather than holding you up right at the surface. If you like a classic contouring memory foam feel without a slow stuck sensation, this hits that note. Side sleepers and people with cranky joints are going to appreciate this more than strict stomach sleepers who usually want something flatter and firmer.
What stood out most in daily use was consistency. Night after night it settled into the same level of sink, with no weird valleys or soft spots developing. For a mattress designed to live in a tighter RV or truck space, it feels surprisingly close to a bedroom mattress from a major online brand.
Cooling
Foam beds in small RV and truck spaces can get warm fast, so I pay attention to heat build up. The Utopia uses a gel infused comfort layer with a latex transition layer beneath, and that combination does a decent job of keeping the surface from feeling swampy.
I did not notice any hot spots around my shoulders or lower back during longer stretches on my side. You still get that cozy foam cradle, but it does not trap heat the way older solid memory foam slabs do. If your rig already runs hot you may still want good airflow and a breathable mattress protector, but the mattress itself does its part.
Motion isolation
Motion isolation is one of the clear strengths here. In my bowling ball drop test the disturbance across the surface was very minimal. I also did the classic water glass test and the glass barely wobbled when I dropped weight on the other side.
In real sleep this translates to fewer wakeups when a partner rolls over or climbs in and out of bed, which matters even more in a small RV or truck where everything around you already shakes and rattles. If you are sensitive to movement, this mattress takes a lot of that out of the equation.
Edge support
Edge support is good but not rigid. When I sat right on the perimeter I could feel some compression, which is expected for a softer all foam build. Lying near the edge felt stable and I never felt close to sliding off, even on the softer Utopia model.
For RV and truck use that is fine for most people. If you are heavier and rely on the edge as a seating surface, or you want a very firm ledge for getting in and out, the Journey or a firmer build might be a better fit than Utopia.
Pressure relief
This is where Utopia really shines. The bowling ball sinks deep into the top layers and you can see how the foam wraps around the weight. On my side, my shoulders and hips settled in without that sharp point feeling you get on thinner RV mattresses.
After full nights on it I did not wake up with dead arms or angry hips, which tells me the comfort and transition layers are doing their job. If you are upgrading from a stock RV mattress, the difference in pressure relief will feel huge.
Who it is for
- RVers and truck campers who want a true bedroom feel instead of the thin factory pad that came with the rig.
- Side sleepers who need strong pressure relief at shoulders and hips.
- Couples sharing a smaller mattress who want low motion transfer.
- Anyone with non standard dimensions, corner cuts, or odd bunks that regular mattresses will not fit.
Not the best match if you want a very firm, bouncy feel or if you sleep mostly on your stomach and prefer almost no sink.
Price and coupons
Tochta prices change with size, thickness, and how custom your build is, but here are current ranges for the main models at the time of writing:
- Journey around four hundred thirty four to eight hundred sixty four dollars depending on size and build.
- Utopia around four hundred thirty four to one thousand one hundred seventy six dollars.
- Divini around six hundred ninety three to one thousand five hundred seventy eight dollars.
Those ranges reflect standard and custom configurations direct from Tochta. Expect to land toward the higher end if you go thicker or very custom. There are occasional sales on the site as well, so it is worth checking current promos before you lock anything in.

How we test
For this review I slept on the Tochta Utopia in a queen size and combined that with a set of repeatable tests. These include a bowling ball drop to judge motion transfer and sink, side and back sleeping for spine alignment and pressure relief, long holds to check heat build up, and edge sits and edge lies for stability.
I also pay attention to real world details that matter in RV and truck setups, such as how the mattress handles tight corners, how quickly it expands out of the box, and whether there is any strong odor in the first few days.
FAQ
Do I need exact measurements for my RV or truck bed?
Yes. For custom orders Tochta builds to the measurements you provide. You will want accurate length, width, thickness, and any corner cuts. If your layout is unusual you can reach out to them and describe the shape or send a sketch so they can match it.
How long does it take to get a Tochta mattress?
In my case the Utopia arrived in about three to five days from the time of order. Tochta builds the mattress, compresses it, and ships it in a box. Shipping times can vary a bit, but the brand is clearly set up for fast turnaround on custom builds.
What happens if I do not like the feel after sleeping on it?
Tochta gives you a one hundred night trial on their mattresses. You can sleep on it in your RV, truck, or bedroom and if it is not working for you in that window you can return it for a refund. That is important with custom sizes, since it lowers the risk of taking a chance on a new build.
How does Tochta compare to a stock RV mattress?
It is not remotely close. Stock RV mattresses are usually thin pads with very basic foam and little pressure relief. The Tochta Utopia feels like a proper foam mattress you would put in a bedroom, with real contour, support, and motion control. If you are coming from a factory pad, the upgrade feels massive on the first night.
Which Tochta model should I pick Journey, Utopia, or Divini?
Journey works if you want firmer support and a lower price. Utopia is the softer, more plush option and is the one I would point most side sleepers toward. Divini is the most advanced choice, with customizable firmness on each side for couples who do not agree on feel. All can be built to custom sizes, so the decision is mainly about comfort and budget.
