Is the material water proof (plastic-y)? Or foam (soft)?

Yes, plastic-y. :) Not sure how it'd hold up in a swimming pool, but leaky diapers can be cleaned up easily.

It is foam medium soft with a plasticky cover. It was perfect for our baby. Not to hard not to soft.

I think it was water proof, but I can't say for sure as I bought it for my grandchild, and I never asked my son.sorry.

The material is a dense, plastic foam. They are very light weight and work well.

Advertising says it is: "Weather, dust and impact resistant". Mine has been in heavy rains before without a problem. I wouldn't take it swimming. :)

Feels like foam. It really soaks up water if left in the rain, but dries pretty quickly.

It is vinyl covered foam and very durable. We use them at our karate school for the kids class and it works great.

This is a vinyl plastic material. Very thin and very flexible. The version we have has built in ribs to offer stronger support in the material. As in the materials capabilities, it stands up to UV and strong winds pretty good. Had it covering our pool all last summer and it kept form and shape very well.

It's plastic and waterproof... When I got mine the creases from where it was folded up got on my nerves so I washed it but I didn't let it go through the spin cycle... It got the creases out but it changed the texture of the curtain . I actually like the look of it better now

In my opinion the material is water resistant, not completely water proof. We used a bunch in light rain and snow and our baby always stayed dry.

It's all plastic but I would not put it under water. I don't know how water resistant it is. Does not say anywhere on the instruction that you can or can not use it. It works like magic out of the water.

It is water resistant, but not water proof. The material is sturdy, much like most outdoor furniture pads. But if it rains, and you sit on it, well, you will have to dry off.

It's water proof around on the vinyl but the zipper on the end isn't (like in a flood water would seep through). I bought it because of my toddler having bed wetting issues and it has worked great for that. I live in a dry climate and would totally use it for a cover to protect the mattress if in storage.

Good question. I only saw and handled them during a birthday party. I think they are some kind if laminate. Definitely not foam and I don't believe plastic. They are sturdy, not flimsy at all. I gave this as a gift to my 2 year old granddaughter just last month, so I cannot attest to the durability. First impression is that this is something that will last.

It's made from mesh type material, which covers the ordinary floaty material. It is very comfortable, soft material.

It is not plastic. It is a soft, white, sort of synthetic cloth. It gets wet on the inside but does not soak through. And it drains and dries out quickly.

I would imagine foam. So far, we have had it six months, it is holding up wonderfully.

It is a waterproof fabric, it is not the plastic kind beach mattresses and beach doughnuts are made of. The sad part is, no matter the material, it was not a cooling item as advertised. My poor daughter who goes through terrible night sweats due to menopause, did not benefit from them. In the morning, the "cooling" mat was drenched in sweat and so was my daughter.

Not hard plastic. Semi soft plastic but not rubbery either. Will dry out and get stiffer as it weathers over time.
