Sleep Philosophy Twin XL Mattress Pad, 100% Cotton Mattress Protector

I bought a new king mattress and bought a mattress protector for it. I'd only ever used mattress pads but read about the importance of mattress protectors. I love my new mattress but didn't like the way the fitted sheet felt against the protector, so I decided to add a mattress pad. I wanted something very cottony, substantial but not too thick because I didn't want to change the feel of my new mattress. This mattress pad has exceeded my expectations. It does seem to be a bit too tight even though my mattress isn't thick, but I don't care because it's great in the most important ways.

This made such a difference in my sleep. I bought a 14” hybrid firm mattress from Sam’s. The fitted sheet kept sliding all over nothing my in my sleep and causing me to wake up. The mattress was also getting uncomfortably warm. While the mattress still gets warm it is significantly cooler than before and my fitted sheet no longer slides around. This mattress pad is 95% cotton which was very hard to find. Not just the top fabric but the padding is cotton too. If this is what you’re looking for look no further. This doesn’t however make your mattress any softer, which isn’t why I bought it.

Great feel to the cover! Cotton reigns supreme – especially in bedding! The generous, stretchy side panel easily accommodates my tall mattress & the 3 inch memory foam topper. Excellent product. I highly recommend.

This is a nice pad. If I had to estimate I would say that it is between a quarter inch and half inch thick. Not super thick, but then I don't want or need super thick. I needed a pad as a buffer between my Heated mattress pad and my skin. My heated pad feels just a little too warm even on the lowest settings, so I have found that having a relatively thin buffer pad which I lay on top of the heated pad works best for overall climate control of my bed. My sheet goes on top of this pad. This pad fits the bill, adds a little softness but allows the heated pad to do its job in a more controlled way. What I like about this pad, which is better than my last one, is that it covers the bed surface evenly from edge to edge. My last pad didn't cover the top, bottom, or sides a good 4 inches. It is cool cotton so no heat added to my sleep surface. What I didn't like was the amount of lint. I washed it and dried first. There was a noticable amount of lint in the lint filter of my dryer. Ordinarly that would be fine and somewhat expected, but what I found after placing this on my bed under the sheet was that lint was coming up through my sheet in the spot where I lay on the bed. I have dark, eggplant sheets, so the white lint was quite visible. It was only in the spot where I slept all night from chest to legs. At first I thought my sheets were bad, but realized that it couldn't be that because my sheets are dark and this lint was very white. I stripped my sheets off, put the mattress pad back in the washer and dryer a second time. This time there was less lint in the dryer filter but still some, of course. After placing it back on the bed again it seems to be OK, meaning I haven't woken up in a pile of noticeable lint anymore. Maybe buyers should take heed and wash, dry a couple of times (at least) before placing on bed. I just bought a new Eurotop Serta mattress which is already soft on top and well padded. So getting this pad for extra comfort wasn't even on my radar. That said, it still adds some additional softeness on its own. My new mattress is 11 inches tall, this pad is 12", so with the other heated pad on my mattress plus this it just barely makes it completely around my mattress. It is a little loose actually along the sides because I can't keep it tucked in easily. So if you have a thick mattress, even thicker than mine, take heed it might not make it. The 12" they claim seems accurate with no room to spare.

This mattress pad is not good quality. The fit is too tight, as I couldn’t get it on a 10 inch thick mattress without tearing. The elastic is flimsy, insubstantial quality, and was not sewn securely to the fabric. It had already come undone in several sections. Overall, was poorly stitched, with several areas not stitched closed, badly puckered, and/or misaligned.

The GOOD news! I have been looking a very long time for a 100% cotton mattress cover that's thin, NOT waterproof and not puffy, and lets me sleep cool. My current pad was very puffy but too hot to sleep on - not 100% cotton. I need a cool sleeping environment as I sleep quite warm. This is exactly what I was looking for! It's not very thick, (which some folks complained about) but that's just what I wanted. It's well made, soft & comfortable, makes no noise, and the skirt pockets are very well made with a nice material, not that cheap stuff that snags & tears like so many others. I see that others have rated it lower due to not fitting their deep mattress pockets. My mattress is 11" deep and this fit perfectly (after washing and drying), so yeah, if you have a deeper mattress, it might not fit. I sure question the advertisement of fitting 16" deep mattress, but maybe I shrunk it a little in the dryer. I will line dry next time to avoid any more possible shrinkage. I am very happy with this mattress pad and think it's worth the price of $44.

Bought a new bed 2 months ago and they included the New and Improved Mattress Pad. The one supplied was Tencil waterproof and was suppose to keep you cooler as the salesmen told me and since it breaths it keeps moisture away. Well let me tell you I woke up sweaty and was hot as I slept. I have all cotton sheets on the bed so I knew those were not the problem and I had never had a problem before until this new mattress pad. I went searching for an all cotton mattress pad and found this. I read allot of the reviews and most were all positive. The only Con reviews I read was about the cotton wadding up after washing. I outweighed the good ones, I knew if I had a problem I could always return it. I followed the washing instructions to a tee. Gentle Cycle, I used Cold Water and I also didn't use the "Auto Fill" feature of water and set the water to medium high so the pad had enough room to move in the drum with more water and I have a large drum in my top loading machine, I also used the high speed spin after the gentle cycle was done so it would get more water out. I dried on low setting and went and moved the pad around in the dryer to get it evenly dried. It came our perfect and no shrinkage and fit the bed wonderfully. This is not a thick pad but it covers the bed well. Last night was a dream sleeping with not being hot and waking up all sweaty. I recommend this and follow the washing instructions. Don't worry about that 5% other material. It does have spandex on the drop sides that helps putting it on the bed and holds in place. The pad didn't move or slip all night long.

Really a wonderful mattress pad! The healthiest choice of materials, yet at a very fair price. And it's quiet, even though it's a waterproof pad. So glad I bought!It did shrink some when I washed it in warm, then dried it on low, but it still fit/strectched to fit my 13 1/2" pillow top mattress. Very pleased.

This mattress protector is exactly what I needed. I have an all‑natural latex mattress and wanted a cover that matched those standards without any chemical treatments, and this one fits perfectly. The quality is impressive — it’s thick, soft, and the stretchy contour design keeps it securely in place all night without slipping. All‑cotton protectors like this are surprisingly hard to find, and this one is absolutely worth the price. A solid, well‑made product.

Nice quality, feels like cotton, good weight. Packaging was so tight I had trouble getting it out without damage. Has an odd smell. Not awful, but not great either. Somewhere between earthy spices and chemical. A night and day airing hasn't made much difference. I'm really hoping a wash will sort it out. I debated between reducing by one or two stars for the smell.

He comprado este producto dos veces, en queen y el último en king. Creo que es el mejor protector de colchón que he comprado. Me gusta la tela de algodón de buena calidad y resistente aunque no impermeable (si buscas impermeabilidad tal vez no sea la mejor opción). La tela de los laterales también se advierte resistente, he tenido otros protectores que terminan rompiéndose por los lados, este parece que resistirá mucho más. Lo he lavado en casa y se conserva en su forma original. Volvería a comprarlo.

Al lavar por primera vez y necesariamente por ser nuevo, este protector de colchón tamaño individual ¡se encongio muchísimo! Espero que en esta segunda lavada no se siga encogiendo, porque de ser así, ya no me serviría para nada. ¿Cunas? ya no tengo. En este momento, todavía no se ha secado. Lo tengo en el tendedero.

This is the second one I purchase. The first one was for my queen bed. I have an all natural latex mattress and wanted a natural mattress cover that did not have chemical in it as it would defeat the purposes of my all natural and expensive mattress. The second one was for my son's twin bed. He is 11 years old and has not had a accident since he was 2 years old and therefore I am not worried about the fact that it is not waterproof. This mattress protector is really good quality, it is thick, soft, the contour is very stretchy and therefore stays snug around your mattress. I think it is perfect. I washed it and hung it dry before placing it on the bed. It's definitely worth the price. These all cotton mattress covers are really hard to find ( I had been looking forever) I am glad to have found this company. All other water proof mattress covers are made of nasty, chemical releasing materials that I chose to stay away from. This one is just perfect.
