Convenient but not luxurious
So I had always been interested in the idea of camping in the model 3, I’d seen others do it with simple camp mats, with blow up mattresses, or just with a duvet. I’d also seen the Dreamcase but I had no plans to spend £700-800 on a mattress for sleeping in a car.Then I spotted Tesmat and Tescamp. Two very similar products, one of which (Tescamp) was available on Amazon UK. After watching lots of videos on youtube I decided £200 was worth a punt over the alternatives. I don’t often camp, but when I do I’d rather be able to sleep reasonably well.So why the Tescamp and not a blow-up mattress or mat?Blow-up mattresses come in two types:1) A generic double mattress2) A specifically designed mattress for the model 3For the generic, they’re too thick to go into the back of the Model 3. I mean they will physically fit, but due to the fixed metal parcel shelf its likely you’ll keep clashing with it and end up with bruises or worse; cuts.If I’m honest I didn’t take the second option mainly because the tailored blow-up mattresses weren’t available at the time of purchase, it’s likely given they’re half the price that I’d have taken this option otherwise. That said any blow-up mattress is prone to leaks and punctures, so I decided for long term this alternative was best.I did buy a camping mat. Like I said I don’t often go camping so I don’t have any expectations, but I knew having laid on it once that I wouldn’t get any sleep at all so the mat was a no-go.So then I ordered Tescamp, and I had some reservations but I remained openminded.When the case arrived, it was in a strong neat nylon bag with handles at either end and is double zipped. The bag is sized to fit into the sub-truck (US name, frankly I don’t have a name for it). It must be said; yes, it fits in there, but the false floor no longer sits flush once the bag is in place. Its not a huge problem though as it doesn’t impede the loading space at all. Unfortunately whilst the bag physically fits in the 2019 frunk, closing the bonnet is a struggle and it felt like it was going to put stress on the release mechanism so I decided against any risk and used the sub-trunk.Opening the bag you find some simple instructions and a very soft fitted sheet to go over the mattress to add a level of hygiene and a touch more comfort.Under this, three Z- folded sections, each with 3 memory foam pads/blocks. The material covering the mattress is grey, soft, and really rather plush. All three of the sections are compressed under two strong nylon straps which snap together. When you release these the mattress slowly grows to roughly twice its compressed size, still sat in the bag.Next I dropped the seats in the Model 3. The lower seat does actually come out but the Tescamp mattress is designed to work with it still fitted, so the seats don’t drop completely flat, instead leaving a small 5% incline.It quickly becomes apparent that the mattress has top, bottom, and fitted sides to sit snugly within the Model 3 boot. This design, coupled with the Velcro strips on the underside of the mattress helps the three sections stay locked in position, so there’s little to no chance of even the more restless sleepers rearranging it in their sleep. At the top of each section theres a hard board designed to support the overlap over the edge of the dropped seat. It works well, I had no issues once they were in place and it extends the sleeping space to a decent size.Then the mattress cover over the top. This tucks at the top, beneath the dropped seat to pull it tight and to keep it from coming loose in the night. The bottom of the sheet tucks under the removable section of the Model 3 boot floor, and because the pads are sized with this section in mind, when the bed is made up you can still lift the mattress and gain access to the sub-trunk as they call it in the US. A nice touch is the 2 labels on the sheet telling you exactly which is the top and bottom.The time it took to make the bed… hmm, no more than 5 minutes. Little effort or fuss, very easy. Once the bed is made you can pop the bag back into the sub-trunk still with some space inside the bag for anything you don’t need to hand.So far so good. Now to sleep.Initially when laid on the mattress it was comfortable despite the slight incline. Its firm but supportive. Rolling on your side is fine, there’s no unnatural hip position and I didn’t feel like I’d have any problem sleeping. After an hour watching some Netflix though, I must admit the mattress just felt a little too hard. This is my preference, it wasn’t torture buy any measure, but I feel like softer foam at the top of the mattress would improve comfort. Some of this may have been due to sleeping on a slight incline, but still, I think a small tweak could make this a better product. Adding a topper to this would help, but then you’re already defeating the purpose of the neat, well thought out packaging of the mattress in the bag, plus you’ve already paid £200 for what you’d hope would be a comfy sleeping solution. Travelling light with this mattress is a real benefit, one I appreciated. So in the end I slept pretty well, got 7 hours sleep with no breaks, and I didn’t wake up with any aches and pains. I didn’t struggle to get off to sleep whatsoever.In the morning packing away is nearly as easy. The only complication is kneeling on top of the three sections folded back together (you’ll need to make sure the boards sit top and bottom to allow the compression of the foam), before snapping the straps back together and zipping the bag back up.So would I recommend the Tescamp? Yes I would. Its more expensive than the inflatable equivalent, but its more convenient and will last longer too. Yes it could be more comfortable, you’d not be fooled into believing you’re sleeping in a real bed, but overall it served its purpose well and I cannot complain about the quality of my sleep. That softer foam would be a welcome change, and maybe Tescamp would be open to the suggestion and make a small tweak.

Looks the part but it's pointless.
I was really looking forward to using this if I decided to go on a hike and rather than drive a few hours home after a full day hiking I could have the bed already made and drive home the following morning. Tested at home because the bed is under 3" thick so not really any support. Anyway, woke up after 3-4 hours my back was in agony and went inside and went to my actually bed. Needless to say I think the best solution (for everyone who plans to use this like I tried) just go to a local bed fabrication shop and measure for a memory foam topper 8" thick to the size of the car and buy a nice thick duvet. Works wonders for me go hiking and tesla camping all the time now. One star because it looks good, zero star because its expensive and useless really.

Not worth the money. Returned.
£219 for a camping mattress to go in the back of the car? Ridiculous price. Not worth it. Returned.

Absolutely Superb quality, comfortable, quick, easy to fit and pack away. Highly recommend!
Best Tesla bed out there!!!!I've tried quite a few different designs of Tesla beds and this is by far the best I've purchased. Many I have returned as they were of cheap quality or didn't fit correctly.I was a little unsure of how much to spend on a Tesla bed but this 'definitely is worth the money'. The memory foam bed, sheet and bag are all of high quality. Its comfortable to lay on and doesnt take up a lot of room when fitted. Which means you get more leg room and space to move around on. The bed fits perfectly into the sub trunk in your boot meaning you do not lose any space when travelling. The instruction manual is simple meaning its super easy to fit and pack back away in under 5 minutes.Its really great that it comes with it's own fitted sheet and everything appears to be machine washable which is a big bonus if you're planning on adventure trips like myself. I would highly recommend this product to anyone that was thinking of joining the Tesla camping groups! I'll be sure to keep this with me all the time. Well done TESCAMP - A superb quality Memory foam car mattress which fits perfectly and is as described. 5 stars (Dont buy the cheaper models - make sure you stick with this and save yourself the hassle of having to send others back!)Edit: after fitting this a few times I can even do it now in the dark quickly and easily. I keep the bed with me all the time in the drunk or sub trunk. Fits nicely into both ends.
