AiryWeight Eucalyptus Mattress Protector Rev
During a move to a new city, I discovered that my old mattress protector was shedding tiny bits of plastic. Once I took off the mattress cover for transport, it was like snow dusting my bedroom and the bed. The flurry of plastic took an inordinate amount of time to clean up and by the end of the ordeal I was done with that particular mattress protector.
When the time came to get a new mattress protector, I wanted something quality that wouldn’t shed plastic all over my bed. I found what I was looking for in the AiryWeight Eucalyptus Mattress Protector, which SIJO provided for this review.
AiryWeight Eucalyptus Mattress Protector by SIJO
Specifications
- Size: Available as Twin, Twin XL, Queen, Full, King, and Cal King.
- Price: $60+.
Easy to Use
After getting the SIJO AiryWeight Eucalyptus Mattress Protector in the mail, it was painless to get it onto my bed. Like most mattress covers, you simply stretch it out over the bed and tuck in the corners.
I noticed some of the Amazon customer reviews complained about the deep pocket, which I assume is meant to accommodate taller beds. Personally, my bed is much shorter than the deep pocket. But I was able to tuck the extra fabric under the mattress, so that feature didn’t seem like a big turn off for me.
Pros
- Quiet, no crinkling noise.
- Deep pocket for large beds.
- Easy to wash.
Cons
- Higher price point than some other mattress covers.
- Not 100% waterproof.
Waterproofing
SIJO claims that this mattress protector is waterproof. With a small glass of water, I tested this out and found it to be true enough. The protector stopped the water from penetrating to the other side. But some customers report that it’s not 100% waterproof.
Quiet
When considering mattress protectors, I was worried about the potential noise. My old protector made a crinkly noise that sometimes made it difficult to fall asleep. I’m thrilled to report that this mattress protector is extremely quiet. I didn’t even notice it under my sheets when I climbed into bed.
In My Expert Opinion
There’s no learning curve to using this product. All you have to do is take it out of the packaging and make your bed with it. Its noiseless design is a win for anyone looking to protect their sleep along with their mattress.
