Tempur-Pedic Waterproof Mattress Protector vs SafeRest Premium Mattress Protector

The SafeRest Premium is the better all-round pick for most households. It uses a cotton terry surface over a waterproof membrane, carries OEKO-TEX Standard 100 certification, and is machine washable, which suits kids, pets and allergy sufferers. The Tempur-Pedic uses ThermalSense fabric designed to reduce heat buildup, and it fits mattresses from 8 to 16 inches deep, so it is the stronger choice for hot sleepers and thick or adjustable beds. Owners of both report the waterproof layer holds up, but the Tempur-Pedic surface feels cooler while the SafeRest feels softer and quieter under a sheet.

• Choose the Tempur-Pedic if you sleep hot, have a mattress deeper than 16 inches is not your case but you want a cooler-feeling surface and a wider depth range, and you want a protector matched to a Tempur-Pedic bed.
• Choose the SafeRest if you want a certified, machine-washable cotton protector for a family bed with kids or pets, and you value OEKO-TEX certification over cooling fabric.
