Protect A Bed Premium Waterproof Mattress Protector Crib

 (8 customer reviews)

We bought two of these mattress protectors. They worked really great and we were planning to get more, until they had been washed about 4 times! Then they both leaked. It seems that the rubberized coating underneath does not hold up in the wash. We wash on warm and tumble dry low, no bleach. One leaking protector had a visible but very small spot where the rubber seemed to have disintegrated, and the other one didn't have visible damage but still leaked. Very disappointed.

Amazon's website says there is a guarantee and we will try to see if the company will replace the product. But I am not sure it is worth it if they only last through 4 washes.

Update: The Protect A Bed company said they would replace the mattress covers on my first call. The company also said to dry the covers with bath towels so the backing does not overheat, does not get scratched, and does not stick to the surface of the dryer.

This product is worth the money! I tried the cheap waterproof pads from Target and Babies R Us, and they pale in comparison to this one! I bought this after having a great experience with the twin-size mattress pad that actually zippers around the entire mattress. I also use their pillow cases that zipper. This goes through the washer and dryer with no problems!

I just thought I'd chime in to say that we bought two of these for our one-year-old daughter's bed in case she has accidents now that she wears big girl underpants to bed. The crib-sized sheet fit our crib-sized mattress nicely. Fortunately, we've only had to cycle through the pair of them a few times but we've not yet had any complaints. After probably four washes, they look the same as when we bought them and they've never leaked anything onto the mattress. Nothing wild to say, except that they worked exactly as promised.
