SLEEP TITE Hypoallergenic 100% Waterproof Mattress Protector - 15-Year U.S. Warranty - Vinyl Free - Queen

The product name is a bit vague. This is not an encasement, it is a cover, like a basic mattress pad. Unlike allergy mattress encasements that go all the way around the mattress/box spring and have a secure zipper closure, this cover fits only over the top and corners, just like a mattress pad would. Having said that, it does have an absorbent quality on top (to the touch it feels like a soft towel) and the corners fit over a very deep mattress, which is nice. The corners are also not an allergy-proof material of any kind. Like a normal mattress pad, the corners are a shear, stretchy, netting material. So basically, in terms of allergy protection/bed bug barriers just think of this more as laying a piece of material on top of your bed and then placing your sheets over it like normal. They are high quality (as they should be for the price I paid) but since I bought them to protect my bed from me and me from it, I believe my money would have been better spent elsewhere.Update: Not more than 2 days after I wrote my original review I spilled a HUGE cup of bright red fruit punch all over my bed by mistake- 52 ounces to be specific. The sheets and blanket went into the washing machine immediately as I kept stripping the bed as fast as I could. In all fairness, I do have a total allergy encasement protector over my mattress UNDER this mattress pad and that probably would have prevented the punch from getting to and staining the mattress IF it had even gotten to the allergy encasement but there wasn't so much as a drop- not damp- not pink- NOTHING!I stand by my review in terms of this being a mattress pad and not a full-allergy protection piece HOWEVER, this is one WONDERFULLY absorbent mattress pad. When my cup spilled all 52 ounces, of course, basically all pooled to the center of the bed where I had been lounging. All 52 ounces ended up staining (temporarily, until it was washed) an area only about one foot wide and 2 feet long- that's a lot of liquid in a very small area and yet, this mattress pad contained it all, which is very good since this kind of punch is known for its ability to stain. In fact, I was barefoot at the time that I spilled my drink everywhere and even after a shower the bottoms of my feet and cuticles were still a bit tinted but my mattress and it's encasement were perfectly fine and totally dry so my review is now going to 5 stars for this product's absorbency.

I was definitely expecting a softer, and more plush, mattress protector. But I'm still very happy wit what I got.It doesn't make noise, you can't even tell it's there! I was VERY careful washing, and I decided to hang dry, because of the reviews I read. I think that may be why it's not as soft as described. But I put sheets over it anyway, so I'd rather it not get ruined in the dryer.It fits PERFECTLY on my memory foam/gel mattress. But the sides do seem rather thin and delicate, so I'm sure to be careful when putting this cover on.We live in a particularly rainy area of Maui, in Hawaii. So I needed something waterproof to protect the memory foam. Also, it can get quite hot some nights which causes a lot of sweating. ANY kind of moisture destroys memory foam, so I didn't want to take any chances. This product works very well for our needs.I deducted the star because of the thin sides. I can see how easily they could rip. And also because I have to hang dry. I don't understand why this company refuses to honor the warranty because someone followed the directions and dried the pad. One reviewer said they told her the dryer had caused "microscopic holes". Sounds strange to me that it would invalidate the warranty when this product is marketed as having "microscopic holes", so that it's breathable (which it is, by the way).Anyway, I'm not going to do anything to revoke the warranty because the warranty is one of the main reasons I chose this mattress protector over others.BOTTOM LINE :Product is/works as describedI am happy with this purchaseI would purchase againI would recommend to family and friendsOverall, a good, quality, water resistant mattress protector. And great for memory foam!

I did my homework before selecting a protective cover for our brand new Loom & Leaf mattress. We have two toddlers so it's imperative our mattress is protected from many accidents that may occur in bed. I felt confident this was the superior option, until today. Unless this particular cover is defective, this is far from "100% Waterproof Mattress Protector". My husband spilled some coffee that happened to spatter on the side of our sheets (that were over this cover - we do not sleep on this). I treated the spots with stain protector, then removed the bedding to find out the watery detergent solution had soaked through to my mattress. I'M LIVID! This cover that's just 6 months old isn't washed weekly with the sheets, it's laundered every 3 weeks or so. That means it's maybe been washed 9 times and it's already failed me! Thankfully it's not urine from a leaky diaper or vomit I'm dealing with. But either way, it's not fool-proof as the seller claims. And according to Amazon's guidelines, 6 months doesn't qualify this for this to be returned. I have left a voicemail for LinenSpa so I intend to update this review.UPDATED REVIEW:I contacted the manufacturer Malouf and seller LinenSpa regarding this failed product. They were both prompt to respond, which I appreciated, and due to the nature of my experience, I decided to work with Malouf directly. They were extremely easy to communicate with and after seeing the damage to our mattress protector, they sent us a replacement. It has been laundered according to their instructions and so far has made it though one wash. I'm not sure how the first one became damaged as it was treated as they recommend. As I previously mentioned, I did my homework before making this purchase. I remain confident in this product, and would purchase another one in the future for our family.

Though I admittedly haven't risked my expensive new bed to see if this product works as advertised, I did do some research and watched some YouTube demonstrations before making my purchase.When doing my research, I came across many claims that similar products produce noise. Some very noisy and others not so much. It has to do with the material on the underside of the mattress protector that actually keeps the allergens, liquids, etc... from seeping through and into your mattress. I ordered a full/double sized mattress protector and it wraps around my very thick mattress with room to spare for an even thicker mattress. So far, it's done it's job and is very comfortable to lay on.The top is made of terry-cloth and feels like a bath towel but you'll hardly notice it once you put a sheet over top. I haven't had any comfort or noise issues when I sleep.Definitely worth the buy and it's cheaper than most retail options. When I bought my mattress, the retailer attempted to sell me a much more expensive mattress protector that after buying this one, I determined to be practically the same product but from a different brand. They feel the same and perform the same task, only this one was half the price.Keep in mind though, that the 15 year warranty that is advertised on this product only covers your mattress if this product is purchased on the same invoice as the mattress. Not doing so will void the warranty. I haven't spoken to anyone at the company to see if the product itself is still covered under the 15 year warranty but the wording of the terms is quite confusing. It makes mention of the warranty covering the mattress but doesn't clarify if that also voids the warranty of the product itself.I would definitely recommend this product to anyone looking to extend the life of their mattress or to protect their mattress warranty.

So I wanted to give this a bit of time before reviewing despite the fact that about one week after I got my brand new $900 mattress, my dog got scared/anxious by a tradesman in the house and peed on the mattress... I was horrified but much to my surprise and extreme delight, this cover completely blocked every drop from touching the mattress. Three times now it has saved my mattress from different accidents so I am enthusiastic in my giving it 5 stars and saying YES buy this as it is an absolutely fantastic product!!!

I bought this for my toddler and am impressed with the fit and sound of the protector. I was worried that it would sound crinkly or plastic-like but it is very quiet and you don't notice it is on the bed. It also has a very nice tight fit on the standard depth mattress so you don't have to worry about sliding and bunching. GREAT product for the price!We haven't had an accidents yet to test it's water-proofness, but the other functions are great.*updateThis is waterproof :)It also washes very easily in the machine. So very low maintenance. I will say that when you go to take it out of the washer, watch that there isn't a bunch of water pooled in the pockets as the PUL does a great job at keeping the water from leaking out and it may not have drained during the cycle!Once it is dry, it looks just like new. Definitely has been worth the price for quality, washability and function.

I don't eat or drink in bed so I don't know about spillage - but this does a great job keeping sweat from touching the mattress top. Any odor stays in this protector and the mattress still smells new. I used to use a painters sheet ( dust mite allergy) - but after a bit they got wrinkly and not comfortable to sleep on. I didn't know these mattress protectors existed until my last mattress purchase that required me to have one for a return policy - I now have two different protectors for different mattresses. I'm actually glad I have this one now and it's great, it had no odor from day one. Great quality too. I wash in cold water and hang it to dry.

We ordered this item and it came faster than we expected. We washed it as directed and put it on the bed. I might suggest however, if you have a larger queen mattress, order the king size as we did. Not only was the shipping less expensive for the king size? but it fit with only a margin of extra fabric. My husbands sleep seemed to improve from the dust mites and we know this for certain as he slept in the spare room (due to restless sleep) without the same mattress and pillow coverings and awoke completely stuffed this morning. So far, we are pleased.
