It does its job and I'm pleased

I bought this as a backup pad and it has been both good and bad. The pad came out of the packaging smelling strongly of plastic and the smell only faded slightly after being washed. I am a bit uncomfortable with my son breathing in these fumes all the time which is why my daily mattress pad is organic without any plastics or vinyls. However I needed a less expensive pad for temporary use for when I am washing the organic pad and this one has served its purpose very well. For people who do not mind plastics this fits the mattress well seems to wear and wash well and thus far has protected the mattress from spit-up and poo (so it does its job!) Overall I believe this product has lived up to my expectations for it and I would recommend it to others.More detail ...
