No I didn't buy a cover for the wooden arc and/or the mattress. I've been told that you can spray or paint the wood with a sealant just like you would for a wooden deck. A stain preferably to match the existing color but I would not paint on a solid stain because then you'd have paint chipping occurring within a year. Someone also told me a polyerathene (I know I didn't spell that right) would do just as well. As far as the mattress, I guess I would just bring it in during inclement weather. I bought this for my granddaughter so I don't really know what she does with the mattress. Hope I've been a little helpful. Good Luck! No I didn't buy a cover for the wooden arc and/or the mattress.

I haven't bought the cover yet, however I have noticed some fading to the fabric. It probably wouldn't be a bad idea.

It does come with a thin cover so I still put a mattress protector over it. I was gonna go with a quilted one but decided to just use a basic mattress protector and it works fine. The mattress is so comfortable I don't need the added cushion of a quilted protector.

No cover, just a rag-paper type liner for shipping. You can buy a decent mattress cover at Kohl's or Target for about $20-$25. I also put an extra sheet over the top to keep it clean.

I installed the queen size mattress cover on the bed and it has never been moved, is only a few months old so I don't have any history of its durability. Looks better than the mattress, however, so it works for me.

No cover, I just put it on top of the mattress and put a mattress pad over it and the mattress. Works out great.

Mine did not come with a cover- it was matress only. I bought a seperate cover.

It's not washable, so I'd put a cover on it. I imagine this is the case with all memory foam mattress toppers.

Mine didn't come with a cover. I just put the mattress cover and sheet over it. I've slept like a baby since the day it came. I didn't have to let it air out or anything. No motion at all. I keep a bed tray on my bed, and it doesn't move at all. I usually have a coffee mug with me. Love it. (Got it cheaper at Overstock.)

It does not have a cover. I bought the 4 inch Lucid for a twin size bed and it is 4 inches thick. I guess u can cut it with some big scissors or a sharp blade. Hope

I had actually never thought about a protector for it, unfortunately! But there is a 25 year warranty on the mattress though!!

Ive covered mine with a cover I bought for like 20 dollars on amazon. Obviously wait till its completely cool before covering it. The Covers helped so far !

There is not a cover that comes with it. I bought one at the local big box store.

I used one on a hide a bed in place of the original mattress. I hope to find a zippered cover but it sleeps very well even with a 300 lb adult. You can not feel the bars under you at all.

The prodigy mattress does not come with a cover. I just placed a mattress pad over it. The mattress is amazing, my husband's bed sore is gone.

I bought a cover for mine and keep it covered when not in use. Mine still looks new after almost a year.

I'm envisioning you thinking of some kind of wooden covering! It's a very nice removable, soft and washable cover so the mattress stays clean. If you need a waterproof mattress cover for some reason I suppose you'll just have to buy one separately.
