1. A mattress protector safeguards against bacteria
You are not alone in bed (and we're not talking about your snoring companion). Bacteria soon colonies your mattress (thus the musty odor), and who wants to be that near to bacteria? A mattress protector is a washable barrier between you and your uninvited guests.
2. Allergies can be avoided by using a mattress protector.
If you or a loved one suffers from dust mite allergies (feeling a sneeze or itch coming on?) – which affects at least 12 million Britons, according to research by Allergy UK – a mattress protector can help keep the mites out of your bed. So that's not just a respite from the 'yuck' factor mentioned before, but also from allergy problems. Even better, you can wash a mattress protector to get rid of dust mites, something you can't say about mattresses.
3. A mattress cover will extend the life of your mattress.
You've considered firmness, sleeping position, and filling type before deciding on the ideal mattress for you, and now you want your investment to last as long as possible. A mattress protector will keep the cover looking and feeling (and fragrance) fresh by preventing wear to the cover.
4. A mattress protector will safeguard the mattress's guarantee.
Yes, there is one more item to consider when purchasing a mattress: the warranty. The guarantee on a mattress is void if it has been stained. You can keep the mattress clean and the guarantee valid by using a mattress protector. Simple – and crucial if you're checking out a new mattress for a 100-night trial period and may wish to return it.
5. A mattress cover makes a difference in terms of comfort.
Even if your mattress is perfectly suited to you, it doesn't mean your bed couldn't be even more so. Layers can be added to mattress coverings to provide luxury and cure sleep-disturbing issues.
