We explain the major differences between the brands so you can choose the one that is best for you. Although you can find consumer-written reviews at store sites, none of the major professional consumer product rating organizations, such as Consumer Reports®, has done a thorough review of heated mattress pads for about 15 years. Good Housekeeping® magazine did a short review in January 2010. Many people in the United States have never heard of electric heated mattress pads. Of those who know about them, most that we speak with are surprised to learn that only four companies produce almost every electric mattress pad sold in the United States. Each of these producers sells under many brands. The heating technologies and the fabrics between each of the four producers vary considerably but the brands within each separate producer are quite similar.

Sorry, all information presented applies only to products sold in the United States. We cannot help with other products. Many competitors use woven cotton in their products, but fail to use Natural Cotton Terry due to the increased cost and complexity of the manufacturing process. No other mattress protector surface offers the natural coolness and absorbency of cotton terry surface. Our mattress covers repel water while allowing air to pass through much like the properties of human skin. This insures that your mattress is able to breathe extending its life and your investment. Our mattress protectors offer an elastic fitted sheet style border creating a perfect fit no matter if your mattress is 8 thick or 18 (applies to our mattress protector products).
The surface of our mattress covers are designed not to interfere with the current feel of your mattress. No matter if your mattress is a firm or pillow top, it will still have the same feel after our protector is applied. Phthalate, Vinyl, & PVC Free Our mattress protectors contain no phthalate, vinyl or pvc. Vinyl mattress protectors and encasements do a great job of protecting a mattress from fluids, but do not breathe making them hot to sleep on. Designed, Sourced, & Manufactured in the US We are proud to say that all of our products are made right here in the United States of America. With all the horror stories we hear in the news about imported products, it's assuring to know that you and your family are protected. Manufacturing in the U.S.A also allows us to create jobs domestically, to monitor the quality of our products first hand, and adhere to all of the U.S.A.'s stringent health and safety guidelines. We have and will continue to always make our protectors domestically even as many of our competitors have moved overseas.
