Minnie 22M bedroom slide

Does anyone have images how the bed in the Minnie 22M folds for travel and what the bedroom space looks like while traveling? If no images maybe a description?

I assume many other Class Cs with bedroom side slides may operate in a similar fashion.

We're thinking about one but can't envision exactly what it looks like.

Here is the view of the 22M with the Slide-Out retracted:

Here is the view from inside the bathroom, looking toward the open closet door & open storage drawer. Many of the 22M owners are reversing the swing direction of the right-hand closet door to facilitate easier closet access while the Side-Out is retracted:

Thanks for the reply.

I wonder if people with the folding mattress with the bed made up simply flip the mattress over, sorta Murphy bed style. Or do they slide it over the top of the part in the slide?

I believe most of us flip it backward, and leave it made-up, so to speak.

For bedding, we wrap each mattress section in its own fitted sheet. Before retracting slide, the top covers get folded back onto footboard section of mattress leaving the headboard section free to flip over. Pillows are placed on top of the flipped over headboard section.

We don’t use a toad so have retracted slide everyday on week long trips several times. With a little practice, it goes very quick.

On our 22M we leave our 4" foam top and bed clothes on the mattreses. We Slide the back mattress up and over the front mattress, folding the bedding and foam between the two. You can't Flip the back mattress up an over as it will hit the two window valences on either side of the slide. We have added two short dog leashes to the hand loops on the back mattress to facilitate the ability to pull and slide the rear from an easier position up and over the front one.

I agree with Bilfsey, gets pretty easy with a little practice. His custom individual fitted sheet for each piece is a nice trick. But we find that the mattresses are pretty hard and need that foam.

No way does our method look as neat as Eagle5's photo. So if you are a neatnick, you may want strip the bed and make up each night. But then where do the bedclothes go, and fitting that back sheet is quite a pain.

Charlemj,
I am able to flip ours by flipping one corner past the valence and then the other. The mattress kind of bends in at the corner I'm flipping.
