Is the top of the mattress cover soft just like your sheet feels? Does it feel like plastic covers like ones you put on couches?

It feels more like plastic than cotton, but it is smooth. It is thin. It is not as heavy as plastic covers for couches. Once I put on the sheet, there was no difference in the way my skin felt against the sheet. It is effective in keeping out bugs and mites. I hope this helps

No, the waterproof portion of this mattress protector is like umbrella material. There is no plastic feel to it nor any crinkly sound. Note that this mattress protector is not quilted, so it is thinner than what I am used to, still I am quite satisfied with it.

Mine feels quite soft. I find it very comfortable. Firmness is relative and subjective though and I don't know what your original feels like.

It feels like a vinyl coated cord. I've had mine for almost 4 months and I love it being able to hang out my sheets and washable blankets. The only thing that worries me is the plastic tension arm... I don't know how long that will hold up being the unit is outside.

It fits just like a sheet. The side material is thin and not particularly sturdy ESP if you need to stretch over a deep mattress. That said, it is quiet and not hot and stays in place with the bed linens over it

Top has the paper/cloth feel, bottom has a little plastic feel. It was easy for us to clean and lift the paper. once its arranged on the table, you wouldn't see the plastic layer and it doesn't feel like cheap plastic

It feels like vinyl. It doesn't look like leather. It is attractive in its own right tho and is holding up well after 6 mo. of daily use and slept on nightly. Worth the money.

It has both fabric and plastic, plastic should be put on the bottom and fabric at top of mattress next to your body. I don't feel the plastic at all, but I do have a mattress pad on my bed also.

It is more of a rubbery feel which stays soft and seems to stretch. It does not make you feel hot nor sweaty nor cold. Just comfortable. It does contain any spill therefore keeps the mattress perfect.

It feels like a mixture of down alternative with a touch of gel in the material. I say this because when you move to an area not already warm from your body it has that sensation. I love mine and have never slept better. This thing is very warm once your body heat has warmed it up and I need very few covers, even on the coldest night. Hope this helps!

It is like a cotton back plastic tablecloth but it is very soft under your bed sheet and very nice to touch. I like it and will get one for all my children's beds

I'd say it's between a fabric and plastic feel. My husband uses it and doesn't mind the stiff feel. I don't use mine because of the very tight squeeze getting the pillow in it, the pillow becomes VERY hard--too compact. In fact, it really doesn't fluff up because of the tight fit. It might be great for allergies but you lose a lot of the soft pillow feel.

Not at all. Its not crinkly feeling or sounding. That was one of my worries as well. It actually feels very fabric like. Like a thicker cotton

It feels extra soft and snuggly, possibly due to the gel top. The mattress itself has enough support for a good rest though and all of our guests have loved it, even those with back issues.

Yes, I agree that it feels firm, but not in a rock-hard way. You can feel it begin to conform to you. If you don't like firmness, try softening with a mattress pad that is lofty, or a pillow top, or a feather bed.

My new mattress is firm and has rather hard "buttons" quilting it, which always seemed to be underneath hips or elbows. Ouch! The mattress pad covered them well enough that I don't feel them. And it feels soft and cool.

Yes it feels like SOFT cotton. It washes wonderfully and is reversible. I would definitely buy it again, but it is yellow!
