Hi I have one too. If you want me too measure the cushions then you can get a set made? Worth doing. They are the perfect roof when working. Let me know if you want me to and I will pop the roof up so I can measure it for you

Im in exactly the same position, no cushions up top so will be really interested to see measurements :)
Im also intrigued to see how close a fit Ikea mattresses will be to the original dimensions.

This maybe be of interest too. Once you have the dimensions, Delilah's can make you some factory looking covers. They zip over the foam cushion.

They made this cover for me in about a month. I think something in orange would look good for you.

The problem with a mattress is that the cushions need to fold in to close the roof down. Also if too deep there will be too much air in the mattress making closing the roof harder. I have changed my around so I have 2 double beds and a single when set up and keep all the duvets up top too making more space down stairs. Need to recover my mattresses up stairs as quite tired. Hence earlier question.
