Is this waterproof? My children wet the bed and I was looking for something to give them comfort but yet be waterproof.

no it is not waterproof. however, I put another mattress pad on top of it to keep it from getting wet as mine does not wet the bed but takes drinks to his bedroom and sometimes spills them on the bed. It is still very soft and he doesn't seem to notice the extra covering but it would probably be even more luxurious with the extra mattress pad. Hope this helps.

No, it isn't water proof. My dog had bladder surgery and I allowed her to sleep on my bed as she has all along. She had an accident and wet the bed. I had to wash the cover. It is very comfy though... you might be able to find a waterproof sheet to put over it.

I don't believe it's waterproof. The cover is made of 80% cotton 20% polyester. The foam pillow reads to clean it you are to wipe it with a damp cloth and mild detergent. I hope this helps.

I guess but it is a very cheap paper/cotton cover. I can't imagine it would survive more than a couple washings. I just got a waterproof cover on Amazon for $24 well worth it. Great mattress i bought 2 and my kids love them.

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

Do no put in a washer or submerge in water. A cloth or towel with a little water and soap is your best alternative. If it's soiled heavily, try to blot it dry. If small children are sleeping on it, it's advised as with any good bed, to put a protective layer down over.

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.

Thank you for reaching out to ABC with this matter. This item is not waterproof. It's a regular fitted pack n play sheet.

It's definitely just a waterproof protective layer - would not purchase it if you are solely looking for more comfort. Just remember that baby mattresses are supposed to be firm (and babies will sleep just fine). This layer is made really well though - not flimsy like some other brands. We are very happy with it!

So far it seems to work really well with my little ones wetting the bed. I haven't had any issues with it not protecting the mattress.

It is waterproof, but we use a thick organic cotton cover under the sheet more for comfort than anything else.

Yes it is waterproof. I have used it in shower and bath a few times and still works great

No it is not waterproof. I might keep the water off for a little while, but eventually it is going to soak through.

I am wondering the same thing, I found on a website that polyethylene is the best protectant to use on matress for water and bug protection,. that wool is the best natural retardant, even these soy foam mats are no good as its 10% at most. I have not been able to find a decent bed for the kids under 600 bucks! Would love to know what you have found. We tossed the beds matresses and all, kids are sleeping in collapsible camp cots and trying out 100% cotton hammock! LOL We were having issues with morning coughs and runny noses at night no more sense the change.

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.

Because reviews are mixed in regard whether the bedpad is waterproof or not, i would not trust it. I do not own one, but I recently purchased a new bed and that cover was offered as part of the package. I declined to have it, but I was shown a sample and the waterproof element was demonstrated. From what I could surmise, the pad may indeed be waterproof, but with use, it may develop random weaknesses and allow liquid to pass through. My suggestion would be to purchase some waterproof underpads (often sold for incontinent patients) for the bed, and place a pad or two UNDERNEATH the 'waterproof' mattress pad. That way you would have a little extra insurance against a 'pee bed'. The pads would last a long time I would think. You could also fold a shower curtain or plastic table cover to the appropriate size needed and use that under the pad... you can get the thin cheap ones at the dollar store.

I purchased a pad and cover. I don't know if it's waterproof. Sorry. However, the mattress is great! I'm very happy with the mattress!
