Zip and Block Anti-Allergen Crib Mattress Encased Protector

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.


Having family in the mattress business I have always known the importance of mattress protectors. They keep your mattress clean from any spills and stains that can void your warranty. More important, mattress covers also protect your mattress from allergens, dust mites, bed bugs and their waste.

My husband and I have a full enclosed mattress protector on both our mattress and box springs. When I was purchasing my daughter's bed I couldn't find one like that so I had to go with the mattress protector that just went over top like a fitted sheet.

I was super happy to get to review the Zip & Block mattress protector for my daughter's toddler bed. The Zip & Block is unquilted and manufactured with an outer zipper flap, an interior zipper flap and reinforced inner seams for the most effective barrier to related allergens. It is a soft knit fabric with an ultra-thin breathable polyurethrane membrane provides protection from allergen molecules of less than 1.0 micron.


It was super easy to slip on like a pillow case and zipper up. I love the nice little stretch in the fabric and the smooth feel of it. It also helps the fitted sheets go on a little easier.


You can order your own mattress Zip and Block on Amazon.

I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

  3. We have mattress protectors on all of our beds and we put pillow protectors on as well. If you can find sheets that wrap around the baby mattress as well please use them. They keep the baby from accidentally getting wrapped up in the sheets.

  4. I really need to get one for my bed. I have all kinds of allergies and this sounds like it might at least help!

  5. I like the idea that the protector is not only used for covering the bed. It is also great for preventing allergies. I so need this. I sometimes feel really uncomfortable with our bed and I suspect insects hiding beneath them :(

  7. That is great. I am learning how sensitive my kids are to allergens. And this would be perfect.

  8. It is important. I have a five year old who still pees the bed. So because I don't believe in pull-ups at the age of five, we have a ton of fitted sheets and protectors and just layer his bed so he can take them off in the middle of the night and change after he's peed. I even recommend a waterproof pillow cover.

  13. Everyone needs a cover for their mattress, though this looks like it would be a lot easier to put on the mattress; I really like how it zips up instead.

  14. I need to find a great mattress cover like this one! I am allergic to EVERYTHING! Because of my autoimmune disease not only can't I fight off germs but apparently I can't fight off allergens either. I have bought 2 mattress covers and ended up being allergic to both of them and had to take them back off! These might actually do the trick!
