G'day Rosco,

Yep, it is true - the Darche All Terrain mats are basically the older style 4WD mats that were quite common in the 90's and early 2000's, with PVC edging.
They're not as soft as other self-inflating mat options, so can be quite stiff to roll up, and they don't have a one way valve meaning that they'll continue to try and expand as you're rolling them up.
If you've got an extra pair of hands its not as bad, but it can be a challenge to do solo.

G'day Rudolph,

Yes the Darche 900 Mattress will be a great fit on the OZtrail Jumbo Stretcher, you should have no worries using these together.

G'day Ben, 

You've hit the nail on the head, fully bonded means that the foam and skin fabric are attached, so you won't get those bulges like you've experienced on the 4x4 style mat in the past.

G'day Nathan,

Yes, the 900 refers to mm width, so the 900 mattress is designed to fit in 900 wide swags.
You'll have no trouble rolling the swag up with the mattress inside, but the ATM can take abit of effort to roll up, so we recommend pulling the mattress out and deflating it as much as possible before putting it back in the swag & rolling it all away.
Hope that helps.

G'day Jeff,

It wouldnt unfortunately, you could possibly look at replacing your existing mattress with a RTT specific option like this one here.

G'day Michelle,

Generally, you'll lose about 10cm of floor space due to the pitch of the tent sides. You might find that 2 x 900 wide mattresses are a little bit too wide to fit into the space you have.

G'day Steve,

I can confirm that the Darche 900 Wide All Terrain Mattress is actually 900 wide.

G'day Matthew,

If you remove the regular mattress in your swag and replace it with the 900 Wide All Terrain Mattress then your swag should roll up a tiny bit larger but will still fit in the bag.

G'day Sean,

Theoretically, the All Terrain Mattress ATM 900 will fit the Gecko Stretcher, but as you say you end up with some overhang which generally leads to a bit of a dip forming in the mat. We recommend going for a narrower self-inflating mat like the Deluxe Camp Mat.

G'day Dave,

Thanks for your question about the Darche ATM 900 and Zempire Monstamat. The Darche mats will fit your swag nicely in size, however, they are rather bulky when they pack up, so just make sure you've got space to transport them. Comfort wise the Zempire mats get great feedback and are really comfy, the new Darche mats have some mixed reviews about comfort though. I would personally steer toward the Zempire mat, but both are good quality options.

G'day Jeff,

Darche doesn't test the All Terrain Mattress ATM 900 for an R-value. However, this type of mat will keep you warm in most Australian conditions.

G'day Leanne,

The Darche ATM 900 will fit nicely on top of the Darche XL 100 stretcher. The stretcher doesn't need a mattress but it'll definitely make it more comfortable and warmer in the cold weather as well.
