Please see the video linked below for the full review of the Gen4 mattress for the model Y.

Thanks so much for your in depth review! It also let us know that the pack away may not be as intuitive as we initially thought so we’ll definitely be making video instructions as the process should be much easier than it seems in your video. Some tips: don’t stress rolling up the roll as tight as possible; as long as you can roll it enough to get the Velcro flap to reach the corresponding strip, it will pack away just fine and this should be able to be accomplished without much force. It is much easier to do the extra compression needed with the straps. The roll will look like it does not fit in the bag, but place the rolled up mattress with the hard boards facing up inside the bag. With the bag on the floor, kneel on on the hard boards, while simultaneously tightening the straps. You shouldn’t have to pull too hard on the straps as your body weight should be doing the work of compression while the straps are just utilized to maintain the compression you’ve already done by kneeling on the roll. By not pulling so hard on the straps, they shouldn’t come out of the plastic slits which are present so that the straps can be removable for when using the carrying case as a cooler so that the straps do not get wet. Thanks again for the review! We hope you find these tips helpful as we get our video instructions produced and posted!
I use this primarily in my Model 3 however my son recently took to camping and this doubles as our sleeping pad. Quick and easy to roll up and put away. much better than past items I have used.
My girlfriend and i used my Model Y to camp on the Tesmat for two nights. I definitely had a much better sleep than in a tent and will continue to use this but some modification need to be made as I'm 6'2" to be able to sleep with straight legs. If i pull the mattress away from the tailgate it slides back down during the night so i need to think of a way to stop that. I've also bought some boards to stop the pillows from falling over the edge behind the front seat so that i can have more leg space. If it was just me sleeping in the car then i can lay diagonally with no issues but when there are two people the matress needs to be longer.
I got one heck of a rest with my Tesmat and privacy shield. I tested it out before I take my 3500 mile round trip from Central Coast California to the Ozark’s of Arkansas. I plan on supercharging it will staying in my car the entire trip. I’m glad I came across your product. I’ll be doing live documenting via YouTube & I’ve already got a vid of your product on TikTok IG & Fb !
Ordered this a few weeks back and just got a chance to unbox it/slid it in the car. Fits like a glove! Wish I woulda bought the sheets when I bought the mattress, but another order awaits. Excited to go on my road trip and use the heck out of this thing!
The entire kit is very well through through, super easy to setup and pack down. Very comfortable as well.
Even though I had to pay £98 import tax to get the product into the UK, and unfortunately I didn’t receive the right components to fit the privacy screen (video seems to show carabiners, but I receive any) and it was a struggle to install, I can’t say these points mean enough to be worth marking down for, since the mattress is incredibly comfortable, perfect fit for the frunk, and all in all we slept on in last night and had an amazing nights sleep! Much more cost effective than Dreamcase I would say. Thanks Tesmat, quality product - if you can send me the carabiners I’d really appreciate that!
I'm 5' 10" tall and weigh 175 lbs. and sleeping alone in the car. The Tesmat is comfortable itself, but the slant of the back seats means that the "bed" is more like a "recliner" and I slowly slide into the trunk, meaning that my feet touch the back of the car. This wakes me so I have to slide up again, so I can't get a full night's sleep.
I had hoped that the Tesmat would compensate by making the bottom of the mattress thicker than the top, thus giving a more level sleeping surface.
To solve this, I bought a self-inflating mat that I use in the trunk, plus a hiking table that I lay near the top of the folded back seats and on top of the self-inflating mat, then I lay the Tesmat on top of that, giving me a near level bed. That seems to work fairly well (though I've only slept on that configuration for one night).
The privacy shield has a "shiny" side and a "mat" side, but no instructions regarding which should face in or out. I found that "shiny side facing in" works, but "shiny side facing out" is difficult to fix in place. Would be nice to have that suggestion in the instructions. Otherwise, I find that works well.
Just got my car a few weeks ago. Love to mattress and so comfy. Setup and roll down is easy. Only issue is the Velcro… when figuring out how to roll it up for the first time, the whole velcro portion of it got stuck the the back of the seats. When trying to remove the Velcro the back of the folded seats, it started to pull hard and now an area that of my trunk looks a little weathered… after having this car for 3 weeks… slightly disappointed in this one.
Hi Ian,
I'm really sorry to hear! There is a small velcro tab on the top of the mattress that you can stick the velcro flap to so that it does not stick to the back seats when unrolling.
I received the new edition (Generation 4) and stayed in my Model Y for a week. The mattress was very comfortable. After one night the mattress slipped a little in the car. However, this could be corrected very quickly. The privacy screen was also great and fit the vehicle like a glove. I can recommend the product to everyone, I would buy it again.
Many thanks for the very fast delivery to Switzerland.
The TesMat was a birthday present. My grandsons and I have already tried it out with an overnight sleep out in the garage. They absolutely loved it and only want to sleep there when they are at my house. I’m looking forward to my first overnight camping trip.
At first, I had some problems packing it in the carrying case but I emailed George and he got right back to me with specific instructions that made it really easy.
I’m going to have so much fun!
i could not got this squished back down enough to fit in the frunk, but did not disappoint anywhere else. great design and comfortable enough to last weeks on the road.
This thing is amazing. Roads got snowed in after visiting friends in Sacramento, was driving home to my place in Nevada, and Caltrans closed the road. Threw the car in camp mode, pulled out the mat and relaxed while roads were closed for 4 hours.
The mattress was very easy to stow in the carrying case and it fit snugly in the rear cargo lower trunk. It doesn’t have the chemical smell of some foam mattresses and the workmanship is very good
I would give this product a full five stars except that the cost, while reasonable, isn't exactly a bargain compared to other things a more frugal shopper could find or make do with. However, the products are well designed - the mat is comfortable, the window/privacy curtains work well and everything is easy to install with good instructions.
Great mattress! It fit my 2023 model 3 standard range perfectly, and very comfortable sleeping on it. Highly recommended!
I am very satisfied with the privacy screen. Also unusually fast delivery (to the EU). Thank you.
I was wondering how this mattress would work. I unpacked it, let it expand in the house first because it is shrink wrapped for the manufacturer. I set it up in the car with my sleeping bag and it was SO comfortable I didn't want to get out of bed in the morning! Totally recommended and I am glad I picked it up.
