Twin Waterproof Mattress Pad - Southern Textiles Micro Plush Mattress Protector

These were sold to me on the basis that they are water proof, much more than just water resistant.

I have 6 of these, 3 have leaked-badly (the ones with kids who have occassional accidents). 2 matresses have been soiled and Southern textiles put the responsibility back on me. Did you use bleach washing it? What temp was your dryer? I cared for the product exactly according to their instructions. They replaced the leaky protectors and even one of those leaked. I have to use their chemical products to clean my matresses before they will even consider replacing them, if at all, and I am told that they will probably not, by their warranties dept.

Another problem with the protectors is that the elastic sides rip, 4 have done this, of the 6 I own. The rip starts with a small whole but eventually shreds, making it very difficult to put on to the matress.

I spent way to much money on this product. Hopefully you wont.
