Is this really waterproof? Every "waterproof" mattress pad seems to have reviews to say they aren't actually waterproof.

It beads small amounts of water/liquid off of it. I would't recommend taking a hose to it:)

This truly is waterproof. Crazy cat took a leak on the bed. Mattress totally dry. �

Sure nuf. I wouldn't try to push it to the limits, but for everyday accidents, it works fine.

I have had potty training accidents on this and it worked great! Nothing got through to the material underneath.

I've had it for quite some time now but have never tried to see if it was waterproof. It looks very promising though and I'm sure that it is because there are rubber seals throughout the product.

I have no knowledge of whether or not they are waterproof or not, nor do I intend to test to see... My only negative about them is that they are terribly hard to fit onto a foam (and, presumably latex) mattress due to a too small piece of elastic which causes the pad to bunch up into a small 'wad', and requires either three people, or two and a contortionist, to put on. The quality of the materials appears to be excellent, and the texture leads me to believe that it would in fact be waterproof. I do not look forward to have to remove the pad for washing, and then replacing it. It is simple TOO DIFFICULT A PROCESS.

I think it's best suited for body sweat (low volumes of liquid).The pad is coated with a rubberized material on the bottom and it is waterproof, but the terry top is very thin. If it were to be a large volume of liquid, it might end up soaking the entire top, which might then drip down on the sides of the mattress.

My mattress pad never smelled at all! I am sorry that yours does. I am guessing you have washed it and the smell is still there?! I would tell Amazon about it and get them to replace it with another one. NO reason at all for the smell to linger......

it is waterproot to a point i wouldnt trust it keep the mattress dry if its in a puddle or out in the rain but if a child pees on it or something is stilled on it and its cleaned up with in a few hours its all good.

It doesn't let moisture make its way down to the the mattress.The mattress pad its self will get get wet in its top layer of material but it is waterproof. It is also not crinkly or noisy like cheap or old versions of waterproof mattress pads. When i took it out of wash a couple days ago i actually noticed how well it is holding up.

Yes! That is the reason I bought this product. I am a very warm sleeper. Other waterproof pads had me waking up in pools of my own sweat. This product isn't quite as cool as traditional non-waterproof pads, but it is better than any waterproof pad I tried previously. Expect to only have 15-20% of the sweat caused by most waterproof pads.

I use it as a mattress pad. If you are looking for padding this is not the cover to buy. It is very thin so it doesn't take away from the comfort of the mattress. It is waterproof so if water is spilled on the mattress it will be protected.

Yes, it is! I still put a waterproof mattress pad on it before putting the sheet on though. I just like to go an extra step towards protecting my baby equipment though, as this is my first baby and I plan to have many more (through which if like this stuff to last)!

It's waterproof. I've also found that changing table mattress covers work great as a cover too.

No, I do not think it would be waterproof since it is foam, but you could probably buy a waterproof mattress cover for it.

Our daughter has used this mattress for four months (she is now 10 months). We do not use a waterproof pad, just a sheet. If there is ever anything wet on her sheets (formula, urine, etc) you can just use a washcloth. It has a very durable vinyl cover in my opinion.

Nope...mine stayed in perfect condition! I wonder if it is caused my water damage? It's basically just memory foam...and I know sometimes memory foam acts weird if exposed to excessive amounts of water.

I personally don't use a mattress pad, just wipe it clean and let it air dry.

They do make mattress pads, similar to those you'd use on your own bed. Is that what you mean?We had one for the Pack 'n Play we bought for our visiting grandchildren. It adds a touch of softness without making the mattress too 'fluffy' for safety and is totally machine washable and dryable in case of 'accidents'.

No this sheet is not waterproof. It is very soft and I highly recommend it though.
