Would the mattress protecter keep out BODY ODORS from the sheets and other linens? or just liquids? Does it have noisy/crackling sounds?

No noisy/ crackling sounds. Body odors from the mattress, yes. But the sheets & linens, I'd think since you are sleeping on those, you'd still have body scent on them.

Sorry to disagree with the other posters but I just returned this protector because it definitely DOES make noisy, crackling sounds.

The cover isn't noisy. I don't know about mattress protection. I haven't tested it with a spill, I sleep cool and mattress looks OK when I wash the cover. It washes, dries and looks good. Price was good for what is promised. Good Luck

I can just tell you that my mattress looks new and smells great. My toddler has peed and sweated on it heavily yet no odor is left behind. It is not noisy or crackly. As thin as it is it works well however my mattress feels best without it. It is a firm memory foam mattress.

There aren't any noisy or crackling sounds-my favorite part about thus cover. I am not sure if it keep body odors from the mattress, but I would imagine it would. My son peed in our bed one night and it saved our mattress!

I had no problem with smell. Of course there is a little odor until it airs for about an hour. I have a mattress that I paid $3000 for and I sleep better on this on top of a futon.

It depends on how much liquid seeps through to the pad--in my experience, it protects the mattress very well, even if there is quite a lot of "liquid" seeping throughout the sheet.

It does not make a lot of noise but it is not as quiet as Simmons Kids SlumberTime Beautyrest Black Mattress for Infant and Toddlers which is really nice. The Safety First is made of a more plastic material that depending on the sheet could make some noise. Once the baby is on it though I don't think it makes much noise at all. I hope that helps?

Hi. I'm writing from Naturepedic. N. Barra's response is correct. To prevent off-gassing from a chemical-laden mattress, you need to completely seal it - so no air gets through at all.

I have not noticed an odor on the mattress. I'm hoping that it was a fluke for that particular reviewer. I recommend submitting a comment directly to the reviewer and asking for an update...

I am thinking about buying one which means I most likely will buy the one that's around $100.Supposed to prevent liquids from getting to mattress.

Yes, it has both. It goes underneath your sheet obviously and does soften a hard mattress just enough. I like it because it creates an air pocket to prevent suffocation if my son rolls at night and ends up slightly face down. NO smell and you can just throw it in the wash.

do you have a mattress cover on it, I do &one; doesn't smell, or you can try some Lysol

When the system has a bottle in it that it's preserving, it does run continuously. Luckily we sleep on the second floor but if you were close by, it's annoying. Its white noise. I prefer silence.

This unit makes no noise. I've never put a pad over it but we have had no problem placing a fitted sheet over it.

I have it where I sleep and leave it on medium with no problem. It actually produces a whispering white noise. After a night or two, you won't know it's there.

It does not make any noise. You won't even notice that it is there, it feels the same as if having a regular mattress cover.

No, there is no odor. It is recommended that you wash it before you use it though. Mostly that is just because it is vacuum sealed so washing it will loosen the fibers and release any possible odors that are left over from the packaging process. I washed, dried, and put it on my mattress the day it came and have no issues.

I haven't noticed this at all with mine. My guess would be that your sheets or sleepwear is made of would be the culprit. The pillow cover is probably mostly/all polyester (I don't have the tag in front of me to look) If your sheets or sleepwear is also polyester the chance for static build up is fairly high. Your options are to replace the pillow cover with something all cotton, replace your sheets with something 100% cotton or try washing the pillow cover with some fabric softener to see if it helps reduce the static. Good luck!

I did not notice any odor. I have a tempurpedic mattress and did notice the odor from that foam for a couple of weeks.

No. You'd need to get a zipper type enclosure around the whole mattress that allows air out but not chemicals. Something like a BabeSafe Cover (google it) would protect from off gassing.
