Our take on the Mainstays NexGen Waterproof Fitted Mattress Protector

The Mainstays NexGen is a waterproof fitted mattress protector for a Twin bed, made from polyethylene and polypropylene as a vinyl-free alternative. Elasticized corners hold it on mattresses up to 11 inches deep, and the surface wipes clean instead of going in the washer. It suits budget-minded households protecting a kid's bed, a guest room or a dorm mattress from spills. Against cotton-terry and quilted protectors it is thinner and noisier, and it lacks the soft top layer those rivals add, but it is hypoallergenic and simple to maintain.

Questions and answers

Does it really keep liquids off the mattress?
Yes. The polyethylene and polypropylene layer is waterproof, so ordinary spills stay on the surface for wiping up.
Will it fit my mattress?
It is made for Twin mattresses with a pocket depth up to 11 inches. Deeper mattresses will not fit snugly.
Can I machine wash it?
No. The protector is designed to be wiped clean rather than laundered.
Is it soft enough to sleep on directly?
It is a thin film, not a padded pad. Most owners put a sheet over it; expect a plasticky feel and some crinkle.
Is it a good alternative to a vinyl protector?
Yes, if you want to avoid vinyl. It is hypoallergenic and waterproof, but it is thinner and less soft than terry or quilted protectors.
Does it come in other sizes?
This is the Twin version. Check the size before buying if your bed is Full, Queen or King.
