Purecare's Refreshing encasement pairs the same six-sided, locking zipper format as the OmniGuard Advance with a TENCEL Lyocell surface. Purecare says the lyocell fibers wick moisture and feel cool to the touch, and that the underlying performance fabric acts as a physical barrier against bed bugs, dust mites and allergens while also shielding against stains, moisture, mold and mildew. The result is the softest feel on this list, closer to a sheet than to a plastic-backed cover. It has a 30-day comfort trial, free ground shipping and a warranty Purecare lists as up to 10 years or more. A twin was $149.99 when we checked, the highest price we confirmed, and split king beds come with two covers. Care is wash and dry warm. Like its sibling, the product page does not cite a bed bug lab certification, so it ranks below the certified picks on value.
