This mattress pad is great! When it comes to anything that says it's waterproof I am always concerned that it will be loud to sleep on, like rolling over on a plastic tarp, but that is not the case, it's extremely soft and comfortable and doesn't make any noise. The padded part adds an extra layer to my mattress and made it much more comfortable to attempt to sleep in my bed (I hate my mattress because it's uncomfortable but this helped significantly). I also love the deep pocket corners as my mattress is 18inches thick. Over all I am very happy with this mattress pad and am excited to continue using it!
