Hideaway XL
How to choose Leg Kit
Choose the Leg Kit based on how the floor of your trunk looks when the rear seats are folded down:
When you fold the seats down, is the surface they create flat and level with the trunk? Then your floor is “flat” and you need the Flat Floor Leg Kit.
When you fold the seats down, is there an inch or two difference between the seat back and the trunk floor? And/or is the seat back angled? Then your floor is “uneven” and you need the Uneven Floor Leg Kit.
When you fold the seats down, is there a large 6"+ difference between the seat back and the trunk floor? Then your floor is "step" and you need the Step Floor Leg Kit.

FAQ
Do I need a mattress or can I sleep right on the Hideaway sleeping platform?
We definitely recommend a mattress! We find that mattresses around 4” thick are right in the sweet spot of comfort vs headroom. Our favorites are the Exped Megamat Duo, HEST Foamy and Dually. Don’t sweat it if the mattress doesn’t share the exact dimensions of your Hideaway sleeping platform. We find that most small size mismatches tend to “disappear” once you inflate your mattress and lay on it.
How do I know the Hideaway Sleeping Platform fits my vehicle?
Great question! We specifically designed the Hideaway to fit as many vehicles as possible- at least the ones you actually want to sleep in.
Cars:
Once you fold your passenger seats down, the frame telescopes to fit the exact amount of space your vehicle allows. Loosen the blue leg knobs on the extension and you can even do a fine adjustment to extend the horizontal supports past the legs, for maximum platform extension. If you find you can’t extend to the full 72” try this:
Tilt the front seat backs forward and/or slide the front seats up.
If you try this but can’t get more extension don’t sweat it! Fold the excess topper back over itself or let it drape over the edge. Put your mattress on top and try it out. Most small mismatches tend to “disappear” once you inflate your mattress and lay on it.
Trucks:
Install the Hideaway in the bed of your truck and telescope the platform to your desired length. If you can’t extend the full 72” don’t sweat it! Fold the excess topper back over itself or let it drape over the edge. Put your mattress on top and try it out.
Is the Hideaway approved for nighttime activities? Asking for a friend…
Yes, *friends* of ours have tested this and can attest to the durability!
What if I need a replacement part?
We are confident you won’t have any issues during normal use, but we know we sh*t happens! We designed the Hideaway to be easily repairable. We have full inventory of all parts and most can be repairable without tools. Drop us an email at info@pacificadventureworks.com and we will be happy to sort you out.
How do I know which type to get- Flat Floor or Uneven Floor?
The best way is to fold you rear seats down and look. The trunk floor should be flat but are the seat backs now flat too or angled/uneven?
Another way to verify is this:
When you put your rear seats down do you fold the bench
forward and then fold the seatback down? This usually creates a Flat Floor.
Or do you only fold the seat backs down? This usually creates an Uneven Floor.
Still unsure? Have the year/make/model of your vehicle ready- or bonus points for a photo of your trunk setup! Then drop us an email at info@pacificadventureworks.com or give us a ring at 831-200-3490.

Bought a Hideaway single a few months back for my ‘23 Transit Trail in an effort to maintain the flexibility between work and travel. As many of you know, outfitting an adventure van can be extremely costly while simultaneously rendering the van useless for anything else. Just did a crosscountry trip from San Diego to Florida (hurricanes included,lol) and the Hideaway performed flawlessly. High quality craftsmanship, super easy to setup/take down and very lightweight. Reid, the owner answers the phones there, at least when I called he did and talks to you like you’ve been his next door neighbor for 20yrs as well…top notch! A lil pricey sure but the price of freedom has always been high.
I was looking for a solution for my 2006 CRV (Gen 2) and was going back and forth between buying this and building something from scratch. Most other platforms on the market aren't made to fit the older CRVs, so I wasn't sure it'd work, but wanted to try.
I just took it on a 1,400 mile road trip and slept on it for several nights with 2 large dogs. Before I left for my trip, I set it up in the cargo area with the extendable supports pushed in and used it to store sleeping pads and a water jug above my other gear while maintaining access to the back seats during travel. When I rolled up to the campsite each night, it was easy to set up by myself as it just requires folding the seats down, adjusting a few screw in knobs, sliding the supports into position, and flipping the topper over the supports.
To maximize storage underneath without compromising too much headroom, I got the step platform, but ordered some stubby legs to go on top of the seats since the rise is between 8 inches and 14 inches on a slant when folded forward. This was the perfect amount of room for me as a side sleeper. I couldn't sit upright, but I had enough room that it didn't feel claustrophobic.
While on day trips from my destination, I've left it up to block the view of what's in the cargo area and keep my pups out of groceries, but it will easily roll up and be stored in the cargo box up top when I go back to my regular routine.
The rubber stoppers at the end of the horizontal pieces don't love to stay in, but I'm going to fix that with some kind of adhesive. Other than that, it's about as perfect as can be for what I needed and their customer service team is super responsive and works to make sure everything is exactly right.
Overall, it was worth the cost for its ease of setup and stowability. Plus, when it's time for a newer vehicle, it'll transfer right over. Here's to more adventures!
Anytime a company includes a handwritten note I’ll write a review, love to see it- took the PAW XL on our first camping trip this week, it worked out just fine! We both snuggled up comfortably in the back of my Taco and were able to travel with plenty of storage underneath. It’s a really great lightweight option if you’re trying to stay away from a bunch of wood; no build, TOTALLY worth it IMO. Will give y’all a shoutout on the YouTube, cheers 🤙🏼
We are so grateful to have purchased the XL platform that fits both our 2018 VW Atlas and our 1991 FJ80 Land Cruiser. We found it very easy to get set up and our first weekend on the trails was terrific using the platform and bundled air matress. Super comfortable, well made and easy to break down for storage. We would highly recommend this solution if you are looking for a great sleeping platform as well as storage.
I immediately slept in my car for 5 days following receiving it. It is easy to set up, seems built to last, and was very comfortable with the DeepSleep.
Not very much headspace with this setup in a 2021 Rav4 - but I don't mind that much, I'm just in there to sleep.
