BEDLORE's waterproof mattress protector adds a quilted, cushioned top over a TPU waterproof layer, so it doesn't feel or sound like a plastic sheet. A 360-degree elastic skirt fits mattresses up to 18 inches deep.

Who it's for

A smart buy for anyone protecting a new mattress from spills, kids' accidents, pets, sweat or allergens, and for people who've been put off by crinkly, sweaty waterproof covers. It's also useful for keeping a mattress warranty valid, since stains can void many warranties. If you already have a separate topper and just want the thinnest possible barrier, a non-quilted protector will be less bulky.

What we liked

Fully waterproof: an upgraded TPU layer blocks liquids from reaching the mattress.
Quiet and soft: the quilted top and noiseless fabric avoid the crinkle of older plastic protectors.
Secure fit: the deep 360-degree elastic skirt stays in place on mattresses up to 18 inches thick.

What could be better

Waterproof layers can sleep slightly warmer than a bare mattress.
Use low heat in the dryer, since high heat can damage the TPU layer.

Key specs, explained

TPU waterproof layer: thermoplastic polyurethane is thin, flexible and quieter than vinyl.
Quilted top: keeps the fill evenly distributed and adds a little extra cushion.
Fits up to 18 inches deep: works with most standard and pillow-top queen mattresses.

Frequently asked questions

Q: Is it noisy? It's designed to be noiseless, and the quilted top helps muffle any sound.

Q: Is it machine washable? Yes. Wash it and tumble dry on low; skip bleach and ironing.

Q: Will it change how my bed feels? The quilted top adds a slight softness, but it isn't a replacement for a topper.

Should you buy it?

A comfortable, quiet waterproof protector at a fair price. It's cheap insurance for an expensive mattress.
