I was concerned about how difficult it would be to get it on or would it fit on the mattress because it was such a thick one. Both concerns were unwarranted. It fit with room to spare & it was pretty easy. Standing it up on the end made the process very easy. It must be working for my dust mite allergy. The headaches & sinus congestion have been greatly reduced over the last 2 weeks. So great to wake up without a headache or sneezing minutes after I finally get comfortable after a long day!! Just wish replacing the other "dust mite hoarders" in my home were as inexpensive fixes as this was.

Well first there was a weird little stain on the side of it, looked like an ink smear. I decided to ignore that just b/c I needed the cover asap. So after lifting up my mattress and wrestling this awkward thing on, the stupid zipper was stuck! Me, my husband and grown son couldn’t get it to work . So , yeah if I could do zero stars I would. Major pain in the***! Ordered a different one from Amazon . Returning this thing.

It was extremely hard to try to put the cover on the mattress. then we found out that the zipper wa somewhere underneath the mattress. no instructions whatsoever. It took my husband and me to try to put it on for at least 30 minutes. Very hard to figure out

I have used this product many times in the past. I suffer from dust allergies and this mattress cover does help make a difference when I change bed clothes weekly. Usually if I didn’t use the mattress protector the mattress needs vacuuming to get the lint and stuff off

We have used this brand for a few years, mostly on pillow covers (about 10 covers). This time we bought a mattress protector because we bought a new mattress. Like all quality mattress protectors this has a half zipper to zip and the mattress slips inside the half that is enclosed (like a pocket) . Then you zip the remaining half up tight. Stick the zipper into a nice cover slot . That cover slot has an attached velcro closure to keep the zipper closed and hidden. This protector is waterproof/resistant. If you should spill something onto the bed, it protects the mattress from getting wet. The waterproofing is built in to the material, so it's nothing like the old days when that meant a thick rubber barrier, No, no, no that is not it at all. It is the thickness of the material on the underside. Just looks different, because it has a different purpose. The protector does not make any noise when you sleep and move around, as well is washable and can be dried in a dryer. It did take 2 people to put this cover on. Today's mattresses are HEAVY and deeper than they use to be. But this mattress protector has deep pockets and is able to cover very well with room left over for 13-18 inch mattress heights. (read the package I think it said up to 18 inches) This is a quality item

My 8 inch mattress and 3 inch topper fit perfect in the cover. Making not only my mattress waterproof but also the topper. The only reason I took one start off is because of the material on the inside of this cover does make a little noise. It is not terrible though!

Really liked the way it fit, bought new mattresses and then husband was in a bad accident and his leg was really bleeding and was afraid of it getting on mattress. This was perfect, I could pick up next day and get on my mattress so no blood or anything on new mattress. It zipped completely around the mattress and was a perfect fit. Just make sure you measure your mattress. Mine is 17 inches and it fit great! Very pleased with purchase. Will buy again if I ever need new mattress for other bed.

The only reason that I took off one star is because there is this annoying piece of fabric near zipper that tends to get in way when taking on or off. It can get caught is zipper so zipper slowly.. Best to have 2 people when putting on queen or king size.

Very difficult to put on matress. However, it was worth the hassle of getting it on. Very comfortable under the fitted sheet, cannot really even tell it is there. Keeps the bugs out completely. Bought a new $500 matress and a few weeks later bedbugs showed up. I was devastated. Matress company would not rectify the situation, so I had to figure it out. Since using the cover, I sleep like a baby.

I have had this encasement on my queen size bed for about a month. I washed it when I first got it and put it on my new mattress. This item is waterproof and works great with my adjustable base. There hasn’t been any tearing or ripping due to the adjustable base. Haven’t had any allergy flareups or breathing difficulty since installing this. The only con is I wish it came in other colors or maybe a quilted or embossed top layer. The plain white isn’t very attractive, although you don’t see it through the sheets. lol Would highly recommend.
