SafeRest is the brand most shoppers already know from Amazon, and its Premium Bamboo protector is the strongest all-round pick we compared. The top layer is viscose derived from bamboo, which SafeRest describes as smooth and cool to the touch, laid over a breathable waterproof membrane that blocks sweat and spills without the crinkle of a plastic cover. A deep-stretch skirt fits mattresses up to 18 inches, which covers most pillow tops and tall hybrids. The protector goes on like a fitted sheet, has no zippers or padding, and can be machine washed and dried. A twin cost $39.99 on SafeRest's own US store when we checked, with free shipping, 30-day returns and a 10-year warranty. SafeRest also sells an Everyday Value version for $27.99 in twin. The main limit is coverage: this is a top and sides protector, so anyone worried about bed bugs or dust mites inside the mattress should look at a six-sided encasement instead.
Who it is for
