Reviews are sooo mixed! I want this for a 3 yr old who sometimes wets through diaper at night. Is it waterproof or not?? Thanks!

Yes, this is absolutely waterproof. My three old wets her bed regularly and it does not seep through to the mattress. I can guarantee that. We bought two, to have an extra to remake the bed. I am about the order more for my sons bed right now.

Because reviews are mixed in regard whether the bedpad is waterproof or not, i would not trust it. I do not own one, but I recently purchased a new bed and that cover was offered as part of the package. I declined to have it, but I was shown a sample and the waterproof element was demonstrated. From what I could surmise, the pad may indeed be waterproof, but with use, it may develop random weaknesses and allow liquid to pass through. My suggestion would be to purchase some waterproof underpads (often sold for incontinent patients) for the bed, and place a pad or two UNDERNEATH the 'waterproof' mattress pad. That way you would have a little extra insurance against a 'pee bed'. The pads would last a long time I would think. You could also fold a shower curtain or plastic table cover to the appropriate size needed and use that under the pad... you can get the thin cheap ones at the dollar store.

I wouldn't call it "waterproof"....but it does a good job of keeping the seat dry underneath. Water beads up on mine and is easily wipes off. It doesn't absorb water and wet your bum when you sit down. The pockets in the back are mesh, so anything in them will get wet if left in the rain.

it is definitely waterproof. I use in the shower and have a bag of about 15 lbs of children's toys handing in a net bag from it.

Not at all! I know what you're talking about too. This is actually a very nice product. We haven't had the opportunity to test it's full potential as "waterproof" b/c usually it's just his blanket that gets wet but so far I'm very happy with it. Hope that helps!

I'm checking out this bed because it's waterproof (or supposed to be). How did your dog urinate through the waterproof cover? Is it not what it claims to be?

I don't know, but I'm finding that it's not actually waterproof. My daughter peed in the night and it went right through.

In my opinion the material is water resistant, not completely water proof. We used a bunch in light rain and snow and our baby always stayed dry.

The link below is to a sheet that fits pretty well. It's not perfect because the sheet is for a rectangular bassinet but this bassinet pad is a little rounded. I think it works great. I use a waterproof pad between the bassinet pad and the sheet. My little guy goes a lot and we have had a lot of leaks trying to find a diaper that works. The bassinet pad is washable, which is nice.

It is NOT waterproof- it requires a liner. It seems to be made out of 100% cotton. I purchased a liner at the local dollar store for about $5 and it works great. Very nice looking shower curtain.

It's water proof around on the vinyl but the zipper on the end isn't (like in a flood water would seep through). I bought it because of my toddler having bed wetting issues and it has worked great for that. I live in a dry climate and would totally use it for a cover to protect the mattress if in storage.

Yes, it is! I still put a waterproof mattress pad on it before putting the sheet on though. I just like to go an extra step towards protecting my baby equipment though, as this is my first baby and I plan to have many more (through which if like this stuff to last)!

While I haven't had the occasion to put the item to the waterproof test, I would expect it to be waterproof. However, I do caution that the material (seemingly some sort of vinyl/vinyl-like material bonded to fabric) is extremely thin and wonder if its durability would be adequate to meet the needs of an active 5-year old.

I don't like it. You can see a shadow of your child but can't see thru it and NO it isn't waterproof. It does'nt work well at all with the strollers. If the child pulls on the tab it takes the whole thing down.

It is safe and it is waterproof also. but I still recommend using a mattress pad and crib sheet. Nothing is too good for a precious newborn baby!tthing is

No. It will seep out the side. You need a diaper cover for each insert. And you'll likely need 2 inserts to keep the cover from getting super wet.

I don't think it is waterproof, although my son has used it in the rain and not had a problem.

We double these, but it is our preference because we have two so-called "heavy wetters." One of our daughters (two years) just is a heavy wetter, especially overnight and into the wee morning hours. Our youngest son was born with a heart defect, and was on a diuretic for a season before his heart was repaired, making his diapers extremely wet!We do not mind bulk in cloth diapers - if it's keeping them dry and rash-free, and it smells good (which these do keep the smell away very well), then we think those little bubble-bums are pretty cute doubled up!
