FAQs
Is it waterproof?
No—this model is not waterproof. It’s designed for maximum breathability and allergen reduction. If you need liquid protection, choose our waterproof option.
Will it change how my mattress feels?
Minimal change. The cotton fabric is quiet and breathable to preserve your mattress’s comfort.
How do I pick the right depth?
Measure your mattress height from bottom to top (exclude toppers if you remove them to wash). Choose the next depth up if you’re between sizes for an easier zip.
Does it shrink after washing?
Some natural cotton draw-up is normal on first wash; we’ve accounted for this in sizing. Wash warm, tumble low to maintain the fit.
