The Ultimate Guide to Choosing the Perfect Size Mattress Protector

You've decided to protect your mattress—it's a great idea! But now, faced with the different sizes, you're wondering how to make the right choice. An ill-fitting mattress protector can slip, create uncomfortable creases, and be less effective. Don't panic—choosing the right size is very simple.

Step 1: Measure Your Mattress

The golden rule is simple: the size of the mattress protector should correspond exactly to the size of your mattress . Take a tape measure and measure the width and length of your mattress.

For example :

• If your mattress measures 180 cm wide by 200 cm long , you should choose a mattress protector of size 180x200 cm .
• For a 90x200 cm mattress, you will need a 90x200 cm protector.

There's no need to size up due to shrinkage. Quality products like the ZenPur mattress protector are designed to fit perfectly after washing.

Step 2: Check the Cup Height

The second crucial element is the thickness of your mattress. This is called the "cup height" for fitted sheet-type mattress protectors.

The ZenPur mattress protector is designed to be universal. Thanks to its elastic flaps (or "caps"), it easily adapts to all mattress thicknesses up to 30 cm . This great flexibility ensures that it will perfectly envelop your mattress, whether it is a standard model or a thicker mattress with a mattress topper.

What about models with elastic at the corners?

The same applies to "tray" mattress protectors with elastic at the four corners. They are also designed to fit mattress heights up to 30 cm, keeping the protective surface taut and in place.

Why is a good fit so important?

A well-fitting mattress protector:

• Doesn't move: It stays in place all night, even if you sleep restlessly.
• Is invisible: It does not create creases or bumps under the fitted sheet, thus preserving your comfort.
• Is more effective: The protective barrier evenly covers the entire surface of the mattress.

By following these two simple steps – measuring your mattress and checking the height of the cap – you are sure to choose the ideal mattress protector for peaceful and perfectly protected nights.
