Has anyone identified the best options for inflatable air mattresses for the R1S yet or is there any indication that Rivian will be adding this to their gear outlet in the near future? We need to purchase one for another reason shortly but would like to get the best choice for our R1S that is due anytime now (Oct-Dec).
Thanks all!

I use an air mattress in my RTT with a 1" memory foam topper. The air mattress is from iKamper but you can find similar tech in many self inflating mattresses on Amazon. There are also some SUV specific ones if you search around.

In the end it will just be finding one that fits the dimensions well that you want to use. Definitely wouldn't want to pay gear shop prices for one.

Edit: For completeness this is the one I have but would recommend getting a similar one from a knock off brand.

I have nothing to add specific to the R1S, other than to say I used an Exped in the Sportsmobile to make it comfortable to sleep in. Expeds are probably the best (somewhat portable/packable) air mattress option: has foam insert, insulated and super comfortable.

+1 on Exped. I use one for my tent camping setup and have nothing but good things to say. Very comfortable and packs down to a decent size. Looks like the Medium Double here would fit, based on dimensions as shown below. The one I have is too large, so will probably wait for Exped to develop a custom sized one for the R1S.

I love my Exped. It’s more comfortable than my bed at home.

Reporting back on the xprite foam mattress. I’m surprised at how good it fits the R1S, both in length and width it lays flat. Side-to-side it’s a perfect fit. Length is good too with almost the entire space covered with the 2nd and 3rd row folded down.

Folded up, it easily stores, although takes up more room than a deflated air mattress.

This was purchased as as Jeep Wrangler JK fitment and overall I’m glad I kept it for use in the R1S. Minus the console cutout it’s a near perfect fit.
