We just bought a new mattress, one of those with the gel, comfort foam, and base foam, totaling 12 inches. So I now needed a new mattress protector. I knew it needs to breath, and I wanted it waterproof. I bought a mattress pad (another brand) that advertised zippered bed bug protector and waterproof, had a terry top on it. First night slept hot, and I did not like the feel of the terry beneath my sheet. I went to every store in my city, and all the mattress pads were puffy. I wanted something that would not change the feel of my mattress. So I went to Amazon to do some review reading, and came across this Coop Home Goods, Ultra Luxe Bamboo one. Had a lot of positive reviews, so I ordered it. Right out of the bag, I liked the feel of the material, and it did not have that rubber smell. But, It did not look like it was going to fit on my king bed, so I had to try it on. Fit Perfect. Since I never use anything new without washing it first, I decided to stop by the kitchen sink on the way to the washing machine, and give it the waterproof test. I held the material, and my hubby poured a glass of water on it. I swished it around a bit and it did not leak through. I would hope if I spill on it, I would wipe it up immediately, but wanted to make sure it was somewhat resistant. Seems to be very resistant. See photo of water in a puddle on the pad. Next, I washed it according to instructions, soap, no bleach, no fabric softener. I did it on quick wash with low spin. It does hold water in the washing machine. I gave it a second low spin cycle. Then into the dryer on cool, fluff. I reached in and re arranged it a couple of times so it would not just roll up into a ball and kept it from being wrinkled. It was even softer and was not full static, and wrinkle free, when I removed it from the dryer. Put it on the bed. Nice, smooth, and flat. Plenty of side material to tuck in under the mattress. Did not shrink in the washing process. Slept on it 7 nights so far, and it does not scoot around on the bed under the sheets. It does not sleep hot, in my opinion. Totally not noticeable, but I feel my new foam mattress is now protected. I told two friends, they both placed an order. I bought mine through the seller Marlow's Mercantile. Came Prime, on time. I have received 2 emails from the Coop Home Goods, to follow up on the order, and offer care instructions, which was appreciated. So far so I am very pleased and thinking about trying the bed pillows that Coop Home Goods offers. I would love to buy this mattress pad in a twin XL, but that is not an option. Wonder why there is not a twin XL option? I think this is very high quality, just what I was looking for, and would not have recommended it to my friends if I did not think so. Read more
I'm very happy with this mattress protector! The other mattress protectors I have tried in the past have been the terrycloth-style ones with plasticy bottoms that sleep hot, crinkle, crease, and bunch up beneath the sheets, slide off the mattress, and sound like I'm sleeping on plastic when I move around. I hated them all and ended up giving up on mattress protectors altogether for several years in favor of cushioned mattress pads. When I purchased a high-quality and expensive new mattress recently, I finally decided that it was time to relent and buy something to protect both the mattress and its 10-year warranty. I was not looking forward to it, based upon my poor experiences with waterproof protectors in the past, but the Coop mattress blows the terrycloth-style protectors completely out of the water! It is thick for a mattress protector (not as thick as a mattress PAD, of course, but there is no reason it should be. A protector is meant to protect your mattress, not to add padding), very soft, stretchy, and visually pleasing. It stays put very well and does NOT crinkle or crease beneath my sheets, or come loose. It also doesn't change the feel or reduce the comfort of my great-quality new mattress in the slightest. I have a thick mattress that requires deep-pocket sheets, and the Coop protector fits perfectly, but seems like it would also fit lower profile mattresses well, as the edges are strong and stretchy with a lot of grip. It also doesn't sleep hot or even warm, which was the claim I was most skeptical about. It doesn't actively cool me (it might offer active cooling if you're sleeping on memory foam, but my mattress is an innerspring, so I can't speak to that), but I have found it to be completely temperature-neutral, which suits my needs. The one thing I would say is that calling it "noiseless" is a bit of a stretch, but only a bit--I do hear a soft, susurrus rustle from the protector when I first get into bed, but it really is very subtle and not at all unpleasant. Once I am in bed, I haven't noticed any noise when I move around. I definitely recommend washing the protector per the included instructions before putting it to use--I have a feeling excessive heat could do damage to this protector, but a cold wash and a low-heat dryer cycle left it soft, fresh, crease-free, and smelling like nothing but clean laundry. I haven't had the opportunity to really put the waterproof qualities of this mattress protector to the test, but I have had some...shall we say...significant monthly feminine leakage, and I can happily say that not only did it protect the mattress completely, but I was able to spot clean most of it VERY easily (the fabric seems stain-resistant even though it isn't advertised as such), and the rest came out effortlessly in a cold wash. I really am just over the moon about this mattress protector. I can't imagine that I could find something better for the price point, and the fact that it is sold by a small family company just makes me even happier with my purchase. I highly recommend it!

Perfect for my Layla hybrid mattress. If you’re looking for a mattress protector that protects without changing the feel of your memory foam mattress, this is it! My hybrid mattress can be flipped to a soft side or firm side. I use the soft side which is super comfy. So I don’t need a thick padded mattress pad. I just wanted a protector that’s soft and would provide protection without making my mattress feel like plastic or hot. This Coop mattress protector is everything that I wanted in a mattress protector. It is top quality. It doesn’t alter the feel of my layla hybrid mattress at all! It doesn’t sound nor feel like plastic and it doesn’t sleep hot. It’s soooo soft. It’s definitely waterproof. I’m so glad I found this on Amazon! Worth every penny. Update: just realized the mattress protector I received is a king size. I ordered a California king size. The packaging says California king but the item inside is labeled a king size. I was wondering why there was a little extra space. Not happy about that. Anyway, I ordered the correct size directly from the manufacturer. I’m returning the other one back to Amazon for a refund. Make sure you check the label on your mattress protector to make sure the size is correct. Read more
