Then, you either thank your lucky stars you've got a good one or curse the fact that you never got around to buying one. If you've ever spilled your coffee while enjoying breakfast in bed or had your dog wake you up in the morning by getting sick at your feet (ew!), you know what I'm talking about. Now's the time to make your move: This popular mattress protector, loved by over 216,000 shoppers, is down to just $32.

It's right there in the name: This'll keep your bed safe from spills, dust mites, pet dander and bacteria — and it'll keep you safe from having to shell out for a new mattress.

Why is this a good deal? 💰

All sizes of this mattress protector are on sale, but $32 for the queen is a pretty major steal, especially considering that this is the lowest it's been since May 2024. Even sans discount, one of these would pay for itself in peace of mind; with this deal, it's downright priceless.

Why do I need this? 🤔

There's so much to love about this mattress protector. For starters, it's 100% waterproof, so it keeps spills, urine and sweat away to ensure your mattress stays in good shape. It's also vinyl-free and has a hypoallergenic cotton terry surface with a membrane back coating, so no squeaking when you move around in bed. It even blocks out allergens like dust mites and protects against bacteria growth.

The SafeRest Mattress Protector has a fitted-sheet design that works on mattresses up to 18 inches deep. Choose from crib, twin, twin XL, full, queen, king and California king sizes for a fit that's just right for your mattress, or any other bed in the house.

What reviewers say 💬

This mattress protector has an army of loyal Amazon fans — more than 216,000 five-star reviews — and the testimonials are impressive.

Pros 👍

"I have two big dogs and kids, and spills among other things have happened a couple of times, and these mattress protectors don't let anything through," said one pet owner. "The terry cloth absorbs it and the under layer keeps it from going through even after sitting for a little while."

"I have a puppy who likes to have accidents on the bed," echoed another pet parent. "This is the first one I bought and it was great. Not a single drop got through to my mattress. I would be at work and she'd have an accident, and I wouldn't be able to address it until hours later. Even hours after the pee stains never seeped through to the mattress."

One customer who said they've had this for years wrote: "I got this brand originally when I had a full-sized bed with a foam topper, and loved it so much that I got another one when I bought a queen-sized bed. It's very lightweight with what feels like a vinyl top to it. It's been a few years now and the elastic has not worn out of either yet."

"It goes on just like a regular fitted sheet, and it fits over my mattress plus the 3-inch memory foam topper I have; very easy," said a third buyer. "The bottom layer is a waterproof material and the top layer is cotton terry cloth fabric. It is comfortable, doesn't make crinkly noises when you move around in the bed at night, and doesn't shift, no matter how you twist and turn."

And a final fan shared: "When my wife was pregnant, her water broke on this bed — Niagara Falls level of water breaking — and it held up. Mattress was bone dry. Don't know how to give a better recommendation than that!" (We agree!)

Cons 👎

Some shoppers warn that the mattress protector may make you feel a bit warm at night.

One four-star reviewer said it's "comfortable and noiseless" but added: "It does sleep a little warm, so I'm taking away one star. Despite what the advertising says about it being 'breathable,' if there's a plastic barrier that stops liquid, there's a barrier that keeps the heat in and stops air from circulating. That'll be true for any mattress protector. Nevertheless, it's been good so far."

"Tested a small area for waterproofing and it held up with no leaks, and it has deep pocketing that fits our large pillow-top mattress with no problems," said another. "It sleeps a bit warm and also the waterproof lining doesn't cover the sides, which I would have preferred for $40. But overall, a good product that does what it advertises."

Protect any mattress up to 18 inches thick with this add-on — it'll stand up even to an anxious, bladder-challenged Great Pyrenees, one shopper says.
