Sweat-inducing mattress protectors are usually a result of poor material choice.
When made with low-porosity fabric, mattress protectors end up trapping heat—often resulting in night sweat. To escape this discomfort, avoid heat-retaining materials, like vinyl, heavy synthetics, or certain dense memory foams. Our protective mattress covers are made with breathable material so you can beat the heat at night.
Do mattress protectors make the bed less comfortable?
Not ours! We believe mattress protection shouldn’t come at the cost of comfort. Our covers are made with breathable materials for extra comfort. With its smooth polyester case, Casper’s cool-touch mattress protector ensures a crinkle-free and perfectly chilled experience.
Are mattress protectors really necessary?
While not absolutely necessary, mattress protectors are essential for providing superior protection against a wide range of possible damage. Covers help keep your mattress safe from spills, moisture, dust, pet dander, pollen, bed bugs, dust mites, and other allergens. They help in maintaining your mattress investment by keeping it looking and feeling brand new, guarding against normal wear and tear, and are highly recommended.
Do you put a fitted sheet over a mattress protector?
Yes, you typically put a fitted sheet over a mattress protector. The protector acts like a safeguard for your mattress, while the fitted sheet provides an additional layer of comfort. This way, you get to enjoy the benefits of both cooling and waterproof mattress protector features without compromising on comfort.
Do you sleep directly on a mattress protector?
While a mattress protector offers superior protection against liquid and stains, it’s recommended to sleep on a fitted sheet placed over it. This ensures that you experience the softness and comfort of your bed, while the protector works underneath to shield against spills, dirt, and moisture.
How often should a mattress protector be washed?
It’s advisable to wash your waterproof mattress protector whenever it gets dirty or at least once every two months. Most protectors, including Casper’s, are machine wash friendly, making it easy to maintain hygiene and protect against dust mites and other allergens.
