National Allergy Premium 100% Cotton Zippered Pillow Protector - Queen Size - White - 2 Pack - 300 Thread Count - Hypoallergenic Bed Pillowcase with Zipper - Breathable Encasement Cover

Pillow protectors are really important for your investment in good quality pillows. Wetness from sleep can easily seep through a pillowcase and leech into the cotton fabric casing of your pillow, making it stained or yellowing the overall color over time. Considering that a really good goose down feather pillow can go between $70 and $140 on average, spending $10~$20 on a very good pillow protector is just smart thinking.I've gone through about two dozen pillow protectors over the years. What usually happens is that the fabric isn't as resilient as expected and will end up yellowing over time. I often forget to launder mine, remembering once every few washes. In some cases, the protector will reach a point where it's not providing enough of a barrier and allow staining moisture to sneak past. Or, the zipper ends up breaking.I finally decided that buying cheap pillow protectors to throw away every couple of years is just not smart. This time I invested more. This pillow protector set by National Allergy was on sale, so I got two for $13.50.The first thing I noticed is that the fabric is a bit stiff. But this is something that softens up over time, thankfully. It does have a cotton-like shell that feels like good quality. On the flipside, there's a treatment of some kind that feels like it's water repellent, without being a sort of all plastic 100% waterproof barrier. It does breathe. The zipper is not along the edge, but instead about an inch back from the edge on one side, which is a smart design--reduces stress on the zipper teeth.One thing that kind of surprised me. This is a queen size, but it appears to be 20" by 31". I happen to have a "short queen" that's in between standard and usual queen, coming in at 28" long. So, I end up with 3" extra material. It's not a huge deal, because I fold that over and push that through the pillow case first. The fold stays, it lays flat, and the pillow feels fine. Because it takes a good long while of use to figure out if a pillow protector is going to hold up, I'll have to come back at a later point to follow up.

I can tell you that the Quality of this material is going to last a long, long time.When I first opened the package I felt the material and I thought it was a little stiff, but let me tell you it is Quality plus.I washed it because I always wash new things.And was surprised when I took it out of the dryer, it is just as good as before I washed it.Well worth the money.The fit is good didn’t shrink.Washed well.it’s comfortableAnd it doesn’t scratch.

I’ve only washed them once so they are not soft yet but I think they will be ok as they are laundered more. They are well made. Zippers work fine. The best thing though is the size. You cannot find pillowcases much less this item 21” in width. So for that I am giving them 5 stars.

I wish that the zipper on these was a little smaller/discreet. It’s not at the seam line of the case but about 1/2 from the end. The zipper pull isn’t huge but it could be smaller and more discreet. I’m also hoping these will shrink in the wash a bit…they’re maybe 3” longer than my standard down pillows.Overall, good quality and cheaper than some other ones I’ve seen.

The media could not be loaded.  These are nice very crisp and cool cotton pillow protectors. They are a little on the bigger side making it very easy to slip my fluffy queen size down feather pillow inside but I would have preferred them to fit a little better. I know they were an in bigger in length and width but I thought they would shrink a bit but they didn't. I washed them in hot water and dried them on medium heat and they came out great but still just a bit too big. Once inside the pillow cases they don't look bad though as you can see in the photo. I do kinda wish I had tried the standard size but I was worried they would be too small.Because they are such a crisp cotton they do make a little noise when you shake them (see video) but once it's on your pillow with a pillow case you don't really notice it. They do seem like they will protect pillows well since they are such a tight crisp cotton. Since my down feather pillows are so expensive and I don't like waterproof protectors on down pillows I usually use 3 protectors on each pillow for extra protection. Two of these together on a pillow seem like they would really help protect my pillows especially with an additional cotton pillow protector under these. I know, I know it seems excessive.....I just like clean pillows. LolOverall these are fantastic pillow protectors that are the perfect thickness and feel very durable and like they'll last a long time. All 3 zippers on the protectors are smooth and feel durable. I don't think they are water resistant so I'm not sure why it asks about that....Reviews are important to me because I rely so heavily on them when making purchases. So I try to leave thorough reviews for other customers. I hope this review was helpful.

The fabric is of good quality, cleans well and is not hot on your face. This is not a cheap thin cover. This exceeded my expectations and I very happy with the product.

These are soft and fit nicely on my standard pillows that are very full and fluffy. Standard size pillow cases were too small for my pillows so ordered Queen size and they fit nicely. Machine wash and dry. I appreciate that these stay soft after washing and you do not have any noise or crunchy sounds from other types of fabric allergy covers. These maintain the integrity of your pillow softness and feel.

Works as advertised and a good price!

Je me suis totalement mépris en commandant ce produit. Je croyais sincèrement recevoir 2 housses. Or, il s’agit en fait du prix pour une seule housse. Soyez vigilant! Lisez bien les détails et pas simplement la photo (on dirait qu’il y en a deux). Elles sont offertes en différentes quantités soit 1, 2 ou même 3! Au prix demandé, je l’ai trouvé trop dispendieuse et ai décidé de la retourner avec des frais de retour estimés à 13$.

These covers are soft and silky right out of the box. A little stiff but once the pillow is in you don't notice. Zip is very smooth too. Well made!

Comfortable. Breathes.

Bigger and more comfortable than what I used before. My sore neck is much better in the mornings.Highly recommend.

Super feliz!! de muy buena calidad y exelente precio
