Bare Home Pillow-Top Mattress Pad for College Dorms, Reversible Topper, Twin XL

When the Pillow-Top Premium Mattress Pad - 1.5 Inch Cooling Down Alternative Polygel Filled Micro plush Super-Soft Hypoallergenic Topper arrived, it did not look that puffy in its packaging. However, once I cut open the vacuum bag open that it was in, it grew to a very puffy mattress pad. One thing I noticed was there was no awful smell when it was opened. I know sometimes things of this nature can have a smell that needs airing out. But, this had no smell. There is a lot to say about this pad. Not only does it protect your expensive mattress, it gives that mattress a whole new life in that it gives a pillow top type of comfort. By the way, it does not state if it's waterproof or even water resistant. However, there is a full 1.5 inch padding, so any accidents caught early probably won't go all the way through. It's like laying on a cloud! VERY COMFORTABLE! There is a “flannel “ type side to use in the cooler seasons and a smooth side to use in the warmer seasons. This will solve the problem of having two different mattress pads. The skirt of the pad is sturdy but can fit very deep mattresses. Also, this type of skirt is good at holding a fitted sheet in place. It does not shift around once the pad is placed properly. I have not washed it yet, but, the instructions say it can be washed in the delicate cycle in a washer and tumble dried on low. To me, it seems it should wash up nicely. I would definitely recommend this mattress pad to anyone who wants to bring new life to an old mattress or just likes to feel like they are sleeping on a cloud. Keep in mind, it isn't waterproof, though.

Ive never had one of these. We got it to go on top of the foam topper. Its like sleeping on clouds it completely changed our bed! It also was here a week early only took 2 days to get here
