I genuinely hate buying mattress protectors. They are all made differently. Some are made of cheap thin plastic, that crinkles and makes you sweat while sleeping. Every now and then you get lucky and find a really good protector. This one is one of the good ones. It doesn't make that annoying crinkle noise when you roll over in your sleep at night and it has a nice  cloth type exterior.  I am happy to have found this product because it seems like a good quality and I should not have to worry about replacing it for a very long time.
