Helps to assure the warranty of the mattress beneath, many retailers and manufacturers require a protector to keep valid.

Price point is reasonable and comes with an impressive guarantee of it's own

Breathability is always a concern with protectors, after all, you've potentially spent a lot of money on a breathable mattress that will help keep you cool in an all-season sleep and the protector adjusts with all these dynamics. For those utilising this protector for a memory foam mattress they don't need to worry as most memory foam mattresses aren't really breathable anyway at which point, no harm done.

Why our sleep experts loved it

Mattress protectors are often dismissed as noisy and uncomfortable but not so. The Tempur-fit mattress protector comes from a manufacturer at the top of their game, managing to create a 100% waterproof protector that will keep your new mattress sanitary and hygienic. Other benefits of the protector come in the form of a longer than standard guarantee and a washable and tumble-dry safe product. 

Another key benefit for customers is that many retailers and manufacturers require a protector to be used in order to allow the customer to file warranty and guarantee claims against the mattress. This means that your warranty and/or guarantee could be at risk without a protector like this one. 

Reviews for the Tempur-fit Mattress Protector are good, with over 1300+ reviews and an impressive 90% customer satisfaction.

I purchased this mattress a couple of months ago; having had our previous mattress for well over 8 years. Both myself and my partner prefer a firmer density in mattress, but not overly firm so it feels hard, and one that helps keep us cool. We started looking at various types; ruling out the cheap ones as they were horribly uncomfortable especially with their spring base. Eventually; we came to this one. The mattress is firm but not overly hard. The foam is at the perfect density for us - it moves and adapts to your body to help support you where you need it. Were both happy with our choice and find it difficult to sleep on anything else. A word of caution - this was advertised as coming with a cooling layer, which was great in the showroom. However, in real life circumstances - with a bottom sheet and protector on - there is no real benefit from the cooling layer. Dont base your choice to buy the mattress solely on that. Another word of caution - the first few nights with this were dreadful. We expected to go to sleep on it and immediately drop off and feel like we were on a cloud. The first couple of nights were uncomfortable and it took a while to get used to, especially having not hadnt a memory foam mattress before. Stick with it though - its an excellent mattress overall

I bought this mattress to go on the Sleepmotion 800i and I have never had a better quality sleep. I have severe arthritis and have suffered with severe pain and poor quality sleep for years. This resulted in me spending longer in bed as it took longer to get to sleep, waking up during the night and finding it hard to get back to sleep again. Due to this I spent more time in bed trying to get enough sleep. I had to use a rail to help me get out of bed and when I got up was in pain and tired from the poor quality sleep. The wonderful lady who helped me told me that you could lie on your car keys and wouldn't feel them! To be honest I thought it was just a gimmick, my partner managed to sit on a plug without feeling it!!! Yes these mattresses are expensive but it's worth every penny. I have never had such a comfortable, pain-free and quality sleep EVER. If your thinking about buying this mattress, buy it you won't regret it for a moment. I used to spend 12 hours plus trying to get a good sleep, to wake up and feel refreshed and never managed it. Now I sleep for about 8 hours and feel refreshed every morning!

I spotted this bed in the window of dreams whilst out shopping, I knew it was the bed I had been searching for, big, bold and beautiful. I waited a few months then checked online and saw it was discounted which was even better as now we could get the super king size, dreams kept us informed when their was a slight delay and compensated us for the troubles, they went above and beyond. Bed arrived on time, delivery men were lovely, made them a cup of coffee each and left them too it, 20/25 minutes later bed was assembled, packaging was taken away by the driver and I was left to dress the bed. Slept like a dream since. Comfortable, sturdy, solid and imposing. Makes such a statement I couldnt recommend highly enough. It was everything I dreamt it would be all those months ago when I saw it in the shop window. Couldnt be happier.

Ever since I purchased my first Tempur mattress I couldn't wait to return home from holidays and business trips to enjoy its body hugging and pressure relieving properties. I felt it was about time to replace it and I was in shock when I realised it was 17years old! I visited the store and the assistant showed me the current range. After thorough testing I chose the Elite. My old divan base had seen better days so I decided to replace it with an Ottoman base. Both looking magnificent. I had to redecorate the bedroom to match them. The mattress seems much softer than my original but within 5 minutes I was relaxed and sleep quickly followed. In addition, the storage space of the Ottoman is amazing. I can hide everything, making the bedroom look like a showroom!

I bought this product as a replacement for a protector (the same one) had started to wear a bit thin and some of the protective backing had come off. The one I had previously lasted a few years before it needed to be replaced. My Tempur mattress still looks good as new and the protector washes up well too! You can see where it has been protecting the mattress but it will need checking with every wash as like I said the protective linining on the protector started to wear away and peel off in places. But I have had it for a few years but for the price and the brand I might have expected it to last a bit longer. (Please note, the review is of the previous mattress protector more than the one recently purchased as I have only had it a couple of weeks!)

This is a very good quality cover, the material it is made from feels lovely. I thought it would make you sweat as the back of it looks plastic but it doesnt. I am not sure about the price of it because we got ours free of charge with the insurance cover we took out. The only reason for giving it 4 stars is because of the size of it. I Believe Tempur make mattresses in two different depths 25cmm and 30cmm and this cover is one size meant for both, wish they would make them for the size of the mattress because ours is 25cm and it is too big it moves during the night and you have to strip the bed right back to the mattress and remake it. A bit of an unnecessary chore really.

The pillows are really comfortable but they are heavy and take some getting used to. They also stay nice and cool which I personally like. On the down side they do not fit all pillow cases and if you squeeze them into one that is a little small they are not comfortable to sleep on, they do need to be in the right size pillow case. It has taken me some time to get used to them, but now I really love them and would hate to sleep on another type of pillow. The mattress protector fits well and I assume is protecting the mattress (too early to tell) but I do not notice it is on the bed. It grips well and does not crinkle under sheets.

Although I've purchased and slept on this product. I've not fully tested it's protective properties and the goal is to never have to. I once voided a 15 year mattress warranty with a careless cup of tea two years in. Lesson learned. That stuff stays away from my new Tempur Mattress. All I can say, it fits well as you should hope coming from the mattress manufacturer. It hasn't seemed to harm the cooling performance noticeably and doesn't affect the comfort of the underlying mattress. If I ever do accidentally test it's stain resistant/water repellent properties I'll try to update and let you know how it performs

This mattress protector was recommended for the Tempur mattress as regulates body temperature. Was told my adviser that they dry within 2 hours, plus not rustle being wayerproof, plus they dont ruck up like other sheets on an adjustable bed - to start the sheet rucks a bit and doesnt stay flat so bit disappointed, takes ages to dry especially as holds the water, thou keep turning inside out is best option, and does rustle a bit !! Im beginning to get used to it now after few months of use, and lays better than normal sheets but for the price alot of money. Plus only available in White unfortunately.

Best money we have ever spent. Prior to buying this mattress (and soon after Tempur pillows) I couldn't stay in bed past 6 am and was always up and out of bed before my daily alarm went off at 5.50 am. I now easily fall back to sleep and could spend all day in bed. I can't wait for bedtime. You don't even know there's anybody sleeping next to you as the mattress and pillows just mould to your body. We had normal memory foam before this, which I found comfortable, but too warm. Having said that, normal memory foam is nothing compared to the luxury of Tempur. Like I said, best money ever spent :)

Prospective customers had the following questions about the product

Gary84
Does the protector have anti allergy qualities?i have just bought in store and was led to believe it does but there is nothing on the packaging to indicate this

Answer: This product has not been treated specially with anti-allergy treatments, however it is made of natural materials so for those with latex allergies as an example, it would not irritate you. It's also not that synthetic as tencel is the main material which is a natural sustainable fabric from wood cellulose.If you are concerned, we do possess mattress protectors with anti-allergy and hypoallergenic qualities that you can find within the toppers & protectors section.Thank you.

I want to know if the tempur mattress cover stays in place and doesnt slip off the corners every night when the bed is slept in. I love my tempur mattress but Im getting fed up of the mattress protector and fitted sheet pulling off the corners. Help ple

Answer: This could be down to a very common issue, the fitted sheet not being deep enough to fit the mattress and as a result it is pulling off the protector. Please ensure that the fitted sheet you have at home is the right depth for your mattress. This should hopefully resolve your problem.

I've bought the tempur mattress protector and it's due to its first wash. Would washing the mattress protector ruin the waterproofing effect? Do I need to wash it with a specific product to keep its waterproofing like you do with Gore-Tex materials?

Answer: The full washing instructions should be on the label attached to the protector. It can be washed at or below 90 degrees C. Do not Bleach. May be tumble dried at normal temperature. You can not bleach or iron the protector. Launder separately using a gentle wash cycle. No further waterproofing is required.

What is the depth of the Tempur mattress protector?

Answer: The depth of the memory foam of the TEMPUR mattress protector is 40cm. It can also stretch to fit almost all mattresses we sell. E.g. a Super King TEMPUR mattress is 27cm high and it will fit this.I hope this helps and thank you for your question.

Will the mattress protector go small enough to fit your Tempur original 21 mattress? If it also fits a 40cm mattress, it seems it may be a little baggy on a 21!

Answer: There are different sized protectors depending on the mattress size - to fit a single, double etc. They are elasticated around the edge and cling under the bottom of the mattress so should fit on to the mattress which ever of the depths you choose.

Hello Does the cover have a zip fastening Regards Keith

Answer: The mattress protector works like a fitted sheet with elasticated corners to grip around the mattress. The mattresses themselves have zip off covers. Different covers have different washing instructions which are shown on the labels.
