Protect-A-Bed Review & Giveaway – Choice of 3 Products

Sharing is caring!

Back in March, I had the opportunity to review & give away a Protect-A-Bed mattress cover to a lucky Thrifty NW Mom reader.  Ever since trying out their mattress cover, I’ve been impressed with their products.  They contacted me again recently about trying out a different product – their pillow protectors & I thought this was a great chance to put it to the test since I have significant allergies….to dust mites (bed bugs – not a pleasant topic, I know!)  I do have other allergies as well, but dust mites are the top allergen for me & the number one place to find dust mites is in your bed.  This is why it’s so important to use a high-quality mattress protector.  But it is just as crucial to use a high-quality pillow protector since this is what will affect your allergies the most since your head is in direct contact with your pillow, with just a pillowcase separating it. You need a barrier to protect you from dust mites.

Protect-A-Bed sent me the pillow protectors to try out & honestly I was a little worried how I would like them.  I have tried out pillow protectors before – my allergist had given me information about ordering them when I was first diagnosed with a dust mite allergy. Let me tell you, those things were not comfortable at all – so crunchy. I am a person who is very particular about my pillows and I like soft, fluffy pillows  – not crunchy hard pillows. So, I’ll admit I wasn’t the best at using those pillow protectors because they annoyed me when I slept.  However, I thought I’d give the Protect-A-Bed pillow protectors a try since my allergies are much worse when I’m not using a pillow protector.  I put them on my pillows a few weeks ago & just today I had to go check out my pillows to see if I’d remembered to put them on – I had completely forgotten about it since I have noticed no difference in how the pillows feel on my head.  The Protect-A-Bed pillow protectors are soft, absorbent yet ultra thin & they offer a miracle membrane with a total heat transference formula. This makes a world of difference in the softness of the pillow cover and they didn’t detract from the comfort of my pillows at all.  I am definitely impressed – and even better my allergies are improved when I’m using the Protect-A-Bed mattress cover and pillow protectors.  They provide that impermeable barrier between dust mites & other allergens (pet dander, pollen, etc) that can collect in your mattress & pillows.

  81. I sleep with 3 pillows: 2 thinner ones under my head and one behind standing up sort of to act as more a a headboard to keep the pillows from going astray. :-)

  121. I am a 1 pillow person kinda gal, but I’m 29 weeks pregnant right now, so I’ve been sleeping with one pillow under my head and one body pillow :)

  125. I’m the queen of pillows. I have an incline pillow, a side sleeper pillow, a put between my knees pillow, and a snuggle pillow. Any more than this and my husband might divorce me but I wouldn’t mind a body pillow between me and the wall since I sleep on the wall side of the bed. ;) So 4 officially but my dream would include more (a foot pillow would be good too!) Yet when I nap I use NO pillows. I just plop down and love on my bed. Strange.

  187. I used to sleep with 2, sometimes 3 pillows. I couldn’t figure out why I was always getting a really bad neck pains & headaches. Duh! So now I am now a one pillow sleeper.

  238. I keep meaning to drop you a note and let you know how much I appreciate winning the mattress protector! It is SOO much nicer than what we had on our son’s bed before … his was the one needing one so desperately, and so we took a twin size. With this one, he hasn’t complained once of anything bunching up underneath his sheets – a first!
    Thank you to Protect-a-Bed and Thrifty Mom! and a warm Merry Christmas!!
