AllerZip Waterproof Bed Bug Proof Zippered Bedding Encasement, King DEEP Size (Fits 11 - 18 in. H)

After much research and comparison, we decided on this mattress encasement for our deep queen set. We were skeptical about the fit but were very pleased on a number of levels with this product upon installing it on our bed. This is a quality product-the materials, the fit, the structure-all top of the line. We did not find anything that disappointed us; in fact the product exceeded our expectations in every way. It was easy to put on and the fit was absolutely perfect-no sagging or gaps-feels like a set of nice pajamas for your mattress!!! A tip for putting the cover on-wash and dry before putting the cover on and make sure there are at least two people to do the job...standing the mattress on end and going from the top down made it very easy to put on. We do not have bedbugs but it just seemed the smart thing to do considering the increase in bedbug activity in this country-in any case it keeps the mattress clean, dry, and looking like new. Obviously, we are more than pleased...Read more

I bought the queen size Allerzip mattress protector in February of '09 for $69.99, and it has been great. After putting this on my mattress, and of course having an exterminator come in to do his thing, I started to notice immediately that I wasn't getting bitten anymore. So it's definitely a quality product.

Now it is 2 months later, and my roommate is getting a new mattress so I told him to pick up one of these Allerzip protectors and then we saw the new price...$114.99! (used to be $69.99 on Amazon)

So the price has skyrocketed from $69 to $114 in 2 months?! Allerzip, you make an excellent product (it is great, seriously), but what is going on here? A 65% price hike seems a little steep.

After we realized we had bedbugs and doing enough research on line, we had our apartment sprayed, all clothing tossed into a hot dryer, and new mattress were bought. Not long after we found a "guest" roaming around our living room sofa.

They were quickly killed and these mattress covers were bought, both beds were treated with a spray of 90% Isopropyl Alcohol (don't do this if there are smokers in your home or at least air out the room right afterwards)or you can use a bedbug spray from a company called "Hot Shot" kills them on contact(Die! MF DIE!!) then covered with the Bedding encasement. We also treated the sofa and loveseat, and all sheets and blankets every few days....just to be "safe"

Happy to say no new bites = peaceful night.
