Fitted Sheets

[GrumpyGranddad]

Has anybody found a source for fitted sheets, mattress protectors, etc for an Ocean T6.1 ?
Shayne advises that the ones in the Club Shop fit the T6 but not the T6.1

Glad you posted this GG as I would have merrily bought the fitted sheets on the club shop none the wiser! Eagerly awaiting some response now

I gave this a punt and it fits OK:

DVALA White Cotton Single Fitted Sheet - IKEA

DVALA white single fitted sheet. Crafted from breathable, naturally absorbent cotton – a sustainable choice for a cool, comfy night's sleep.

not perfectly but good enough for me. It's officially single size 90x200 but I think because it's intended for thicker mattresses, there's enough to go round the upstairs T6.1 mattress and also the downstairs VW Comfort mattress. Upstairs on first fitting it sort of pulled up the sides and I thought it might be too small, but by morning it was perfectly flat. You may ot may not like it but at £5.50 it's worth trying over the dedicated alternatives at about £40.

I am just double checking this as the shop also has the new Brandrup ones that say they fit the T6.1

small double. dunelm. i use them on up and down bed. 7.99 each i seem to remember. the made to measure ones are a rip off and no different

A single duvet cover fits the upper bed mattress as a sheet. Simply slide over the mattress, stays in place 100%

Totally agree. There is a grey colour which is almost a perfect match for the dark grey in the 6.1. we have these, elasticated along the entire length of all 4 edges so they stay in place.

So how different is the T6.1 to the T6 ?
Tbh a scrunched up not fitting correctly fitted sheet is going to really annoy me

T6.1 has a one piece mattress up top T5, T5.1 & T6 have it split into two pieces.
Downstairs the bed on a T6.1 is a bit shorter than the earlier ones due to the new reclining bed end.

You couldnt be further from the truth, having a household full of children, animals, & hobbies, I dearly want my Cali to be my haven of clutter free, cleanliness !

The shallowest, 25cm. Small double.

Because all 4 edges are elasticated they fit nicely around the 6.1 top mattress. We use the Sea to Summit SIM mattress downstairs and use the same small double on that. Absolute bargain. Dove grey matches the 6.1 Ocean.

Me too,been struggling to fit the top sheet and protector today.Then I read the info again and it does say not t6.1,hope they will taken them back.The only thing I will say is why not put this won’t fit t6.1 at the top of the advert rather than further down the advert.It’s complicated buying items when you first start t6 and t6.1 sometimes have the same bits.

Do you think they will fit with a mattress protector underneath?

Do you think they will fit with a mattress protector underneath?

Definitely. Try and get the "Dove Grey" as it matches the interior of your new 6.1 Ocean.

Sorry, don’t know.

Great tip. Has anyone found any good packable (squashable, in a compression bag?) pillows?
