Margaux & May Ultra-Soft Waterproof Crib Mattress Protector (28 x 52 x 9 Inches)

This is a great mattress protector for a great price! I thought the top layer would be thin because it’s water proof but it is a thick, fluffy, and soft for baby’s comfort.

I bought this mattress pad and the 

Waterproof Crib Mattress Pad (Fitted) – Very Soft, Quilted, NO VINYL, Fits All Standard Size Baby Mattresses, No Risk 100% Satisfaction Guarantee Crib Mattress Protector

 at the same time to put on my brand new crib mattress (you should always use a cover/pad!). I chose these because they are both budget-friendly and highly rated on Amazon. I wanted to compare the two and, if they were close to equal, keep them both so I’d always have a clean one on hand for unexpected middle-of-the-night bedding changes. I ultimately chose to return the Happy Little Mill (HLM) cover and will be buying another of one from Margaux & May (M&M). Had I only bought the HLM cover, I would have been happy enough and kept it. The M&M one was just a step above.

The primary reason why I prefer the M&M is the sound factor. I had just purchased a memory foam mattress in part to get away from the plastic sounds of his older spring mattress. I didn’t want the mattress cover to bring back the noise I had just eliminated. M&M is almost completely silent when you move around on it. HLM was noticeably louder though not terribly so. I also loved how soft the terry-cloth top of the M&M was. It gave it an extra little feeling of cush. The HLM has a plain fabric that is soft to the touch as well, but lacks that plush feeling of M&M. Lastly, neither had much of a smell and I could notice no plastic or chemical smell in the M&M after I washed it (I washed it before use).

I didn’t try putting the HLM on the mattress (I had already concluded it was going back) so I can’t compare the two there — but I can say that I was please with the snug fit of the M&M on my 5″ deep foam crib mattress. I’ve washed it twice and used it for 6 weeks so far and I’m pleased with how it washes and how flat it lays on the bed. It’s totally unnoticeable through the sheet, as it should be. There have been no issues with my son waking up sweaty or overheated as can sometimes happen when sleeping on a waterproof mattress cover. I have not yet had an occasion to observe it’s waterproof claims but will certainly update this review if it fails to meet my expectations in that arena.

Update: 4 months after my review and I still love this protector. Still no issues (but also still no incident to test leak-proof factor).

Es suave al tacto pero impermeable. Lo volvería a comprar

I bought three of these covers for my baby’s & toddler’s cribs. I don’t have “leakers” per say, but I have gone through potty training with the toddler. These covers are soft and waterproof, but the top is fabric, so if you’re potty training you need to wash the whole cover after an accident….this is not the type of cover you can just wipe off. I love these personally, they haven’t worn out or gotten musty/smelly and they are QUIET! I advise you to buy a couple so you can rotate them while you wash!

This mattress pad is so soft. I purchased a second one for when the baby spits up and I need to do wash, I have washed them numerous times and it has stayed as nice as when we first purchased it. It fits the crib mattress extraordinarily well. It’s easy to get on and off but tight fitting so I don’t have to worry about SIDS. I highly recommend this for all baby registries!

Great mattress pads! Very durable and washed up nicely on a regular cold cycle and can go in the dryer as well. 10/10 recommend.
