Mainstays Cooling Zippered Pillow Protectors, King, White

I initially bought these mainly for the zipper to replace a set of Mainstays open-ended microfiber cooling pillow cases because the silky material of my cooling pillows made them slip out easily. These noticeably boosted the performance of my cooling pillows (moreseo than the microfiber cooling pillowcases). I stay cooler longer. Unsure whether these will make as big a difference on a regular, non-cooling pillow. Quite a nice feel to them. Very close to my satin pillow cover, but ever-so-slightly more textured. The only downside is that the material is understandably a bit thin, so I can see the blue striations of the cooling pillow underneath. Not a big deal, and the pattern looks totally fine, but this might be something to keep in mind if you keep your pillows out in the open. This is a pillow PROTECTOR, not a pillow CASE, but it can totally serve the same purpose.

So far, this item is performing nicely. The fit is fairly snug. I wish mattress covers fit this well. I use a pillow case over this item to keep it clean longer. Sleeping seems to be better, but that may be because of the cooler temps in the house this time of year. The material this item is made with is better than most of the ones I have purchased in the past. Haven't had to wash it yet, so can't comment on that yet.
