Review: Works Great in a 28' Travel Trailer - The photos are a little dark, but you can see them better if you open them up. The queen bed in our travel trailer weighs approx 86 lbs. Our storage box is 30" long, 48" wide, and 21" tall. I purchased the Small kit. We bought the mattress without measuring the space in our camper, and really only have about 6 inches between the foot of the bed and the wall. Trying to lift the bed manually to access the storage box was almost impossible, and until now, we have never utilized the storage underneath the bed. This kit took about an hour to install going slowly and following directions exactly. No adjustments were needed to the shocks when I was finished. It worked perfectly on the 1st try. It opens and closes with little effort, and we can now utilize the much needed storage space. Things to Consider: - Asking someone to help. I completed this myself, but having a helper would have been much easier. - Read the instructions carefully. For example, when measuring for the lower bracket, the instructions state to measure from the INSIDE of the foot of the bed, not from the outside of the box. - Does your box need a piece of wood added to install the lower bracket? I had to install 17" 2x4's so the lower part of the bracket could be secured - The thickness of your storage box lid. Mine was 1/2". With the gold screws provided, and the wooded squares in the kit, the screws are almost too long, and if drilled deep into the wooden block, will come out of the lid (and possibly tear the mattress). If your lid is not 1/2" you will need to purchase shorter screws. - I installed a handle on the bottom of the lid that covers the storage box. Since our bed is so close to the wall, I want to ensure we are pulling up in the middle each time, and a handle was a quick / easy fix. - You will need a 3/8" wrench, pencil or sharpie, flathead screwdriver (to remove the shock from the bracket after testing), cordless drill with several size drill bits and a phillips-head bit, tape measure, square, wood glue, additional screws (if wood is needed to secure the lower brackets)
Review: Great Product - It wouldn't say it was easy to install, and the instructions were lacking, but after watching some installation videos on YouTube, I tackled the job. I installed this on a 30" compartment with a queen sized pillow top mattress and I couldn't be more pleased with the results. It worked with ease the first time without any adjustments. I was concerned that it might not work since the guide for this size kit only references standard queen and king, but I figured that if it would work on a king, with would work on an oversized (pillow top) queen. It opens easily and stays up which is all you can hope for. With that in mind, I will say that I tried twice to contact the company on their website for confirmation about compatibility and never got a response, so I was sort of shooting in the dark that this would work. I would definitely recommend this product.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Works perfectly, easy to install
*by J***K on September 22, 2018*

I’m not sure why a camper would be manufactured without these, but they are! Our under bed storage measured 27” deep and was extremely difficult to lift. Furthermore I would use a piece of 2x4 to hold the bed up while getting stored items out, which was a pain. No more! We started the install last night, and the only issue I had was the wood block that mounts the struts to the lifted part of the bed was hitting the frame of the bed. No problem, just remove it and move it by 1/2”. This is why the instructions say to test before you glue! By the way, the instructions were easy to follow and spot on. I’m pretty handy, so maybe that’s why I didn’t have the problems some reviewers had. I would say that if you’re not comfortable using a drill and a screwdriver, have someone install this for you. Finished the install this morning and couldnt be happier. One hand to lift the top and it stays up. No more 2x4 in the way of removing stored items. I would highly recommend this product!
