Many people put a ton of time and energy into the creation of the perfect bedroom bed. They go out and buy fluffy pillows, Egyptian cotton sheets, and matching blankets to give their bed that perfect nighttime aesthetic.
One problem is that in the midst of buying all of these bedroom accessories, most couples forget to buy the mattress protector along with it. A mattress protector is a critical purchase for keeping the expensive mattress investment safe, clean, and allergen-free.
Here are 3 reasons why mattress protectors are a bedroom necessity:
- Spills
Sure, when you first buy your bed set, you make a promise to yourself that you’ll never eat in bed. A few months go by and you think to yourself “Ok, one bowl of ice cream won’t hurt.” Next thing you know, you’ve spilled on your brand new mattress, and the liquid is seeping into its composition.
With a mattress protector comprised of polyurethane film, a waterproof layer, and a non-permeable solution will keep any spill from seeping into your mattress.
- Allergies
Beds, blankets, pillows, and carpets are an allergic person’s worst nightmare if they aren’t protected from common household allergies and dust mites. Without a protector, these mites creep into every seam of the mattress, and wreak havoc on people’s sinuses for years on end. A mattress protector will provide that much needed barrier between you and the allergens.
- Bedbugs
If you don’t live in a major city, you probably think you could never experience bedbugs. This is an unfortunate misconception. Bedbugs live in furniture, headboards, drapes, and carpets. They can migrate on just about anything, and if they get a hold of your mattress, you can consider it gone. A mattress protector will make it impossible for them to ever come into direct contact with your mattress.
