how do you clean or wash the mattress pad

It is a plastic encased mattress. Just wipe off with a wet cloth or maybe a sanatizing wipe.

Hi! I actually haven't used it as much as I thought so have not washed it BUT I don't see it fitting into the washing machine, so wiping it off is probably the only way to go. I don't think water will go through as long as you don't use TOO much. Hope this helps :)

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......

The cover is made of a plastic-like material, so you can wash it with a wash cloth and soap, or I have used Clorox wipes on it and let it dry. I have a cloth changing pad cover on mine and change them out when they get dirty. It makes it really easy. Good luck!

The manufacturer provides laundering instructions on a card which also spells out the 5 year warranty. I put it in my laundry room to refer to when I need to launder it. They say to wash with a mild detergent in cold to warm water. Do not use bleach or bleach detergent. Line drying is preferred but if necessary tumble dry on low or no heat. Do not dry mattress pad at temperatures higher than 125 degrees F Do not iron. Failure to follow these instructions will void the mattress pad warranty. Hope this helps.

you have to put a pad inside of it and wash the pad afterwards. make sure you have the right size. Goodluck

To wash it you have to take the foam sides out. We made little pads that fit to size and buttoned them on. That worked. But I do wish there was an easier way to wash/change out the mattress because I had a spitter!

Wipe with antibacterial spray likek Lysol. I also keep the pad covered with a pillow case and change regularly.

YES, I have one of these on my Tempermatic mattress for ten years now. Today I took it off to inspect it. The mattress is like NEW. Not a spot on it. But I will say one thing DO NOT try to wash the protector pad. Mine said I could, I FOLLOWED THE INSTRUCTIONS to the letter. I washed it alone and dryed it alone. It came out without 50% of the rubber backing or what ever it was.I can still use it on my bed BUT it would be not as effected as it once it wasI will be buying another one today

I have 2 green pads. I wash mine in my washing machine with regular detergent on the sanitize setting. From the washing machine I put in under the bathroom mat so it dries flat.

I don't know. I have a waterproof mattress pad on it and haven't needed to wash it YET. But, I will be contacting th manufacturer if and when I need to wash it.

Second one. You can buy a pad or wet Swiffer-type cloths, which I wash with dishwashing soap, add vinegar for cleaning, and reuse. It does a very good job.

I use my pad on a free standing cot and cover all with a fitted single sheet. Therefore, I have yet to make my pad dirty. If I did get it dirty, I would probably wash the pad with Dawn dishwashing liquid, hose it off, and hang it in the sun to dry.

I have not yet used this applicatior, but I think the pad can be cleaned by washing it with soap and water.

I take the lumbar pad off and wash it separate I and on delicate wash and when I dry it I use air dry only so this way it won't shrink

We rinse it clean with warm water and pat dry with a towel. You could also use a type of wipe to clean it.

Sorry, I have never used a mattress pad. I guess if you use a fitted bed sheet, the pad will stay in position over the encasement. I used the mattress and box spring encasement to get rid of the bedbugs. I hope this helps.
