It is a mattress pad - it covers the mattress itself. Yes, of course, you need to put sheets on top of the mattress pad.

Yes, what it does is keep your mattress from wearing out too soon. HOWEVER, if you want to keep your mattress lasting longer and also have a more comfortable mattress (softer top), I would suggest another mattress cover. This cover is as thin as paper and will probably not last very long and adds nothing to making the mattress softer.

Correct. The mattress cover protects the mattress and helps keep the sheets from wrinkling.

I have the queen size, & no, the item lays on the top of the mattress. I hold it in place by putting the fitted sheet over it.

Lays on top covering the whole bed and then has enough material to go to the bottom of the mattress. And fit snug

It is fitted on top of the mattress to provide some protection and padding for the mattress. It is washable.

This goes on top, the mattress pad version is the one you sleep on top of. That being said I find it best to put this between the sheet and whatever blanket you're using. Trapping all the warm awesomeness in :-)

You would have Velcro under your mattress....leaving room for your bottom sheet. It might be awkward changing sheets but doable.

This is just like a fitted sheet, it covers the top, attaches over the sides, and just around the bottom edge. It does not cover the underside of the mattress.

Mattress pad comes down over your entire mattress, tucking neatly under with elastic. A "topper" sounds like it would just lay on top?

You put the topper on your mattress then your fitted sheet over it. That's all some people do. For additional protection from soiling, if desired, you could put another sheet between the topper and your fitted sheet. - from Yes It's Organic

I am ordering this for a bed in my apartment to stage for sale. Does it need a cover or does it look okay to just go over sheets for display?

I use the same sheets I used before I put the topper on the mattress. If you have sheets that have deeper pockets, that is all you will need.

No, this serves as the only sheet you need. I would suggest a mattress pad laid underneath, of course. Just the flat sheet type of mattress pad, not the fitted type. Buy an extra zip sheet!

Yes you should. I use it with a sheet on top no different than we do the adult size mattress covers.

yes, i only have a fitted sheet on top of the protector. Its barely noticeable

Let it air out for a day maybe 2 so it can inflate. I put mine right under my bed sheet, so yes put it on top of your mattress cover. Hope it works for you as good as it works for me. Very important to let it air out though.

Just lay it on top of your regular mattress and put you fitted sheet over both.

It goes directly around the mattress itself. Then a mattress pad may be placed over it.
