Bought the mattress cover about a year ago... about 3 months after use and washed 3 times the material that wraps around the sides of the mattress, that holds the pad in place began to rip. Now a little over a year that part has completely ripped away except in a few places. I am not pleased with it at all! The padding itself is great and has held up very well... the sides on the other hand complete junk! I have washed it in delicate cycle with free and clear detergent every time... so I just dont understand why it hasnt held up! So disappointed not at all worth the money!!
