I have been diagnosed with dust mite allergies and advised to cover my mattress and box-spring. I am very satisfied with this item. I was concerned it would be like something from a hospital rather than a hotel. I am relieved that it is very much like the latter: satin, high quality, upscale.The installation instructions are comprehensive and easy to follow. The zipper goes all the way round which makes things easier it certainly glides very smoothly. For all those like me who prefer to buy things made in the USA you will be as disappointed as I was to know that the tag says MADE IN CHINA.
Two negative comments: the warranty reads like a legal agreement not sure they ever want (or are obligated) to honor their 10 year commitment. Also their literature says that only 70% of bed bugs live in the mattress you could buy this product and still have other things to do to remedy your situation
I bought two of these as I have two twin size beds. I have 2 different twin mattresses: one is higher than the other. The encasement fit both mattresses easily. I followed the instructions to wash them and they're easy to clean. I put them in the washer and then put them in the dryer just for a little while. I hung them to fully dry them. I put them on and they are definitely waterproof. When you have a bedsheet over them and sleep over it, you don't hear any noises or sound from the friction of the sheet and encasement. There is a terry-cloth topping on the encasement so it prevents the movement. I haven't had any bed bugs since (and I hope I never will again) so I can't say if they keep them out of the mattress, but it seems like it definitely would keep them out.Had a small Bed bug infestation and had to buy encasements for boxsprings and mattresses. I bought some online from another company but didn't like the quality and stitchinggot my money back and found these instead. This is a great quality product! I like the fact that it comes with mini zip ties for the zip loop to keep the mattress cover very secure and not accidentally open. It's totally waterproof and the terry cloth top is a good ideahelps prevent the sweats!
Only con I can think of: the size for my twin is a little baggy, not a glove fit like I thought, but it's not too noticeable.
I highly recommend these encasements.Purchased this to go over my sons new mattress, he has allergy problems and our ENT Dr. recommend getting a cover. Installation was simple, but I had to lay on the mattress with the zipper slightly open to let out some of the trapped air. Within the first week my son had an accident and soiled the sheets, but nothing penetrated the encasement. I washed the cover in the gentle cycle, hung it up to dry, and it was as good as new!
I would have given it 5 stars but in supporting mattress heights from 7 to 12 inches, it is very loose on the low end of the spectrum. When I replace my bed I will definitely be purchasing the king size version.
Update: We have been using these for 2 1/2 years now and they are holding up great. That is is quite a testament, considering how rough my boys play on their beds. They have picked up a few grape juice stains from my kids sneaking sippy cups to bed, but nothing has ever gotten through the encasement.This is a great product. I have used it for 4 weeks now and it feels really good. My mattress was much less thicker than this cover was made for but that is not really an issue and everything else is perfect. The zipper on mine seems good to stand and the zip lock is like described. Great product. Seems to be doing a good job of holding any bugs in. I just have to use it for atleast 6 months or 1 year before I can place a final verdict.
The terry cloth on the top is comfortable too.
