How to choose a mattress protector?

You're probably wondering what the benefits are and if it's worth buying a mattress protector?

A mattress protector is an accessory that, according to many experts, is a must-have in the bedroom, and for some manufacturers, it's a mandatory condition for mattress warranty recognition.

1. Protects the mattress from getting wet and dirty. When we talk about getting wet, we're not just referring to spilling water, but also protecting baby and children's mattresses, as well as the moisture generated by our bodies while we sleep. People often change several temperature states at night and are very likely to sweat actively. Over time, this sweat absorbs into the mattress and is a prerequisite for the development of microorganisms.
2. The protector prevents the mattress fabric from wearing out, chafing, or tearing. Mattresses that are subjected to active use – frequent lying down and getting up, sitting, jumping – are more likely to chafe and even tear in the area of greatest stress.
3. The protector extends the life of the mattress. When the mattress does not retain moisture, dust, bacteria, and mites, and when the fabric is protected, the mattress will last longer over the years.

What are the types of mattress protectors and what is the difference between them?

1. Luxury mattress protectors are increasingly popular and sought-after bedroom accessories. In the online store for mattresses and sleep accessories matraci.bg, you can find a zip mattress protector that protects the mattress from all sides.
2. Protector with 4 elastic straps – these are some of the most common mattress protectors. They cover the top of the mattress and are attached with elastic straps at the corners of the mattress. The advantages are that it is easy to use.
3. Deluxe Protector – this type resembles a fitted sheet, with the waterproof covering intended for the top of the mattress, and the border (sides) covered with a delicate fabric, with elastic at the bottom. It is more stable than protectors with 4 elastic straps. It also protects the mattress from the sides. It is designed for mattresses up to 25 cm high.

All mattress protectors can be machine washed, and it is recommended to wash them at up to 30 degrees Celsius without spinning.
