Are the sides waterproof? I'm horrible about knocking glasses of water down the side of my bed...

The sides are a stretchy fabric that is different from the top of the matress protector. The top has a layer of waterproof material underneath the terrycloth. I doubt that the sides are completely waterproof, but liquid might roll off, as it is finely woven and slick. I haven't spilled anything on it, so I am not 100 percent sure of this.

Not really. The sides are fabric, but you might try using Scotch Guard. That may help.

The item is water resistant. In a heavy rain, some drops will likely get through, but the bed will be mostly dry. If you directly spray at the cover with a hose, some water (not much) will get in from the sides by forcing its way between the cover and the bedrail.

definitely not waterproof... Its very cheaply painted/stained wood. I wouldn't waste your money. I ended up giving mine away, and just putting my water crock on my nightstand, as it was more stable and nicer looking.

Not sure. The top is almost terry cloth feeling I'm sure the bottom is waterproof as my son wet the bed and it did not leak through

Not sure if the sides are waterproof, but they are of thicker material, not the usual thin gauze.

Yes they are water proof, but to a certain extent. You dont want them getting soaked all the time.

The key to any waterproof bed products is in how you treat it from day one. It is important not to wash and dry it above medium heat. I have had no problems with leakage or accidents with mine but I keep the temperature low as suggested by the manufacturer. Hope this helps.

Hi Howie,I was caught in a small rain and the roof does seem waterproof...you need to dry it off before packing it up...which was impossible for me...so I opened it up when I got home, dried it and wiped it...otherwise it WILL mold. My side zippers are not rugged at all...I have zipped them right off twice now! There's no catch at the end to stop them from doing that - it's frustrating to me...but maybe I'm doing something wrong? Hope this helps.

I don't usually leave mine down, but I seriously doubt that they'd be waterproof. You might could scotch guard them so that they'd be more repellant though. They're nice blinds though; I've had mine for about a year now and they're still like new.

Yes, absolutely! I spilled a glass of water on one of my pillows with one of these covers on it and it was completely dry.

As others have stated, there is a cotton quilted side that is absorbant and the other side (pink) is waterproof. I've washed them a lot as I use them as potty pads for my dog and they hold up well in the washer and dryer. I just love the fact they're saving me money each time I use them.

no they are not waterproof, no idea on any brand since these are electronic units. I cannot even recommend one.

No, they are not waterproof. They are made of felt material. They are good if it's dry out.

Im sorry i dont know, they are mounted inside my truck. but with the amount of space leading into the unit, i wouldnt trust it to be waterproof

Not as such....... The sides are vented slats to give some air circulation to what's inside. They are like venetian blinds in that they all angle downward so water falling from above will not get inside. Only "up-blown" water could get inside realistically. It is well built and sturdy. I did add a wooden "D" shaped handle to the top front edge to make it easier to lift the top.

they are not waterproof but the moisture doesn't soak through quickly if subjected to some water. i haven't submerged them in anything so i can't speak to that..

Yes, they are waterproof. It's one of their bigger selling points, and it states it on the box. We've had a few downpours and 2 snowfalls, and they still work great (they're out in the open, not under any kind of shelter)!
