We have installed the Froli Star System into our T@g XL Outback 2018 and it is AMAZING!@! Highly recommend this system. Very easy to install. Here is the video I made for the process. https://youtu.be/E3vR-iGGAtA
Froli Sleep System Update: Pleased to report that this system is FANTASTIC!! Hubs likes his comfort level and I love mine. Used all summer and fall on two separate long trips and several short ones, totaling over 7000 miles in travel. Well worth the effort and dollars. Highly recommend!
Thanks for the very nice and well done video! Nice job! I've been mulling over the sleep arrangements for my T@G but haven't gotten around to doing anything about the ever-flat bed system. Actually, I haven't found the stock mattress to be too bad, but my oldest son (urban-dwelling gen-Xer) goes with me a lot in the summer and he's constantly whining about the flat mattress. On the up-side, he just bought a Jeep too, so by the time he's done adding all of the cool, (heavy) manly add-on Jeep swag and mashes his fingers doing it, he'll toughen up a bit.
Seriously, I had been thinking about doing this for a bit but other projects keep getting in the way. I for one had been laboring under the misconception that the Froli system had to be fastened down with screws. I'm happy to see that it does not need that. I'm also concerned about weight and it would seem now to me that the Froli doesn't add much weight to the hatches. Any estimates about how much total weight it adds? A wild guess would do nicely. Last, about how much does the system cost?
I mostly travel alone, but having added all of my manly cast iron parts to my own Jeep, I find that my 60 something frame could use some parts that are closer to the softer side of the equation....

The system not only makes sleeping more comfortable, it also creates air flow under the mattress. We traveled in high humidity this last summer and had no problems with the mattress and bedding being damp. The total weight added I would guess is no more than five pounds. Total cost all in was around $325.00. Thanks for the kind comments.
Thanks! That's what I wanted to know! Anything you'd do differently?

We have the Froli system in our 400 and we love it. We slept on it last night here at the Salton Sea and it's as comfortable as my sleep number bed at home. No aches or pains this morning!

Awsome video👍 High quality, interesting, and informative. Can’t wait to get the sleep report and the opinion on the ROI.

Nice video, thanks! I too am curious about the cost. I have the same trailer, Tag XL and would do both beds on the medium setting.

Just would have done it way SOONER!
can you still flip up the floorboard to get to your clothes?
Sure can!
fantastic presentation, could you elaborate on the pneumatic bracket you installed under the floor.
Super easy to do. Here is a link to the post I did about it.
