My old pillow protector was gross and crinkly and didn’t do a good job of protecting my pillow. I got this new AllerEase Ultimate Pillow Protector as a replacement and I am SO happy I did. My pillow doesn’t crunch anymore when I lay on it and I feel confident that my memory foam is well protected, especially with having year-round allergies. I am so happy with this - I will be buying more for all the other pillows in my house!
