This pillow protector is really soft and comfortable.  I like that this pillow protecter does so many things.  Besides providing allergy and bed bug protection this protector has antimicrobial protection as well as temperature balancing that keeps you warm or cool depending on your body temperature.  This is something that is really nice to have year round allowing you to sleep comfortably.  As a year round allergy sufferer, this is exactly what I need.  This is a great quality product that I will definitely use all of the time.
