Hi,
Thank you in advance for your recommendations—I have been doing a lot of digging around the web and this seems like the place where I can get the best personalized advice.
I recently purchased an eightsleep pod 3 cover, which fits over my mattress like a fitted sheet and circulates water to regulate my temperature. I’ve read some horror stories about the cover leaking water and ruining the mattress underneath, however, so I am looking for a safeguard.
From what I read, I plan on purchasing some highly absorbent incontinence pads to place directly underneath the pod cover and above a backup waterproof mattress cover, which will go directly on the mattress. That is, between the mattress and the pod cover there will be absorbent incontinence pads in addition to a waterproof mattress cover. As an additional point of information, I will be placing a thin mattress topper I got from Amazon on top of all of this to protect the pod cover itself.
Since I am not concerned about temperature or breathability given that the eightsleep pod cover is going to be regulating temperature, I am looking for advice on which waterproof mattress cover (that goes under the water-cooling pod cover) to purchase. I read some other threads that suggested looking for five sided covers but I keep running into either a few poor reviews or lack of reviews in general. Please advise!
Thank you again.
