A good night's sleep begins with a bed that feels cozy and clean. As we spend more time at home, we aren't just sleeping in our beds. Chances are you're spending more time on your bed working, watching TV, cuddling with the kids & pets and maybe even snacking or eating. This increases the chances of damaging those expensive mattresses with everyday spills, stains and stinky stuff. Every bed in the house should have waterproof protection as life happens. • The Serta simply clean Triple Action Waterproof Mattress Pad is the soft and cozy, easy to wash, waterproof solution. • This is a two-in-one solution - a mattress pad AND a mattress protector. One layer adds a plush quilted layer for your comfort AND waterproof protection for the mattress. (Note, this is a pad, not a topper, and is the thickness of a good mattress pad.) • This sewn-through quilted layer of cushiness starts with ultra soft microfiber on the top and a fluffy layer of fiber in the center. Sewn through construction is a sign of quality. • The waterproof layer is attached to the back so everything stays together in the wash. • This waterproof layer is whisper quiet - not like the crunchy vinyl covers of old which could sound like sleeping on a bag of potato chips • Antimicrobial finish helps inhibit the growth of odor causing bacteria in the mattress pad between washings. Really helpful for those who sleep with pets or perspire a lot. Nobody likes a funky bed! • If something does get on the Serta mattress pad, the Scotchguard Stain Release protection (a finish) helps stains to come out in the wash (NOTE: this is not the water repellent Scotchguard finish we typically think of so liquids are not going to bead up on the surface) • The Simple-Fit™ stretch skirt fits up to 18" deep, so it's easy to put on, and elastic around the bottom edge helps to keep the skirt in place. The deep skirt makes it easy to cover the mattress AND enhancements like a foam topper or a feather bed with one layer • The size of the Serta Triple Action Simply Clean mattress pad makes it easy and fast to launder at home. Simply machine wash and dry following the instructions on the tag. Always use common sense and don't cram a too large pad into a too small washer
