It is like a traditional fitted sheet. Only the part that covers the top of the mattress is waterproof

My pack and play mattress has a plastic cover so it is waterproof. The sheets are just padded a little to help the mattress not be so hard.

No it is not waterproof and yes it does breathe! It is the best mattress pad I have ever purchased.

It is very thin and I don't even know it is there, it is supposed to be waterproof but I have not put that to the test. I bought it to protect my Memory Foam mattress against stains to protect the warranty. if you do get it prewash it but be sure to do only delicate and very low heat so not will not damage it. There is no padding for that would defeat the foams function. Hope this helps and I will be glad to answer any other questions that I can.

I bought waterproof covers just in case but the mattress itself has a vinyl(?) case that is non-removable. I've had to put a sheet over just the mattress when I've run out of waterproof covers and it didn't seem to be affected by a pee-accident at all... I just cleaned it off and it was fine, it didn't feel like it had been penetrated.

It's def waterproof but i still use a mattress pad b/c I don't want any spills/spit ups to stain it. You can easily wipe up any mess but it might get discolored

No, its not removable or waterproof. Its best to either be very careful around it, or to make a cover for it yourself. I enjoy the mattress, its comfortable and convenient, but that if one definite down side to it.

I haven't tested it I bought a cover for it when I ordered the mattress. You can never be too careful. Always buy a cover anyway. It's easier to toss in the wash and be sure it's sterile, rather than spray and wipe clean.

Yes, this is a waterproof mattress. Or at least highly water resistant as i have not tried to fully submerge it.

I don't know. I have a waterproof mattress pad on it and haven't needed to wash it YET. But, I will be contacting th manufacturer if and when I need to wash it.

No it's not. It's cloth and can be washed with care. But if it got very wet, the mattress would get wet, too.

The cover seems to be waterproof, but we stack the sheets and mattress pads anyways. We put down a mattress pad, sheet, mattress pad, then sheet, and so on about 4 layers, so in the middle of the night if the top layer gets dirty/wet, you can yank off that layer and be back in business!

I purchased a pad and cover. I don't know if it's waterproof. Sorry. However, the mattress is great! I'm very happy with the mattress!

You don't need one. The "mattress" is made out of waterproof material so you can just wipe it with a cloth if accidents happen. Changing table pad covers fit as sheets too.

I recall my younger children wetting the bed with this product ... and the mattress did stay dry. Unfortunately, after removing the encasement so many times to wash it after their accidents, it rendered the product useless. I think one of them the zipper broke and one of them melted in the dryer. We did end up replacing them after the accidents stopped. But to answer your question, I think the mattress got damp, which means it's not entirely water proof .. but it's close.
