I am thinking of using one istead of a mattress pad.   Because I have 3  (and possibly later 4) layers on foam in my bed, a regular mattress pad seems to be problematic.   When I try to stretch it over the corners of my setup (and the one I have now wants to be stretched pretty tight), it tends to to curl up the corners of the top layers.   So I'm thinking just use the terrycloth cover on my topper (or toppers) and have nothing over the base layers (of firm p/u foam).   The fitted sheet will cover it all, so no problem with the way it looks.

I'm thinking it will work especially well because of the zoning thing I'm doing:

I basically will probably have 4 separate pieces of foam in my topper: two 1" pieces of latex for the mid-torso area (to make a 2" piece), and pieces of 2" memory foam (or possibly 14ILD latex) for the shoulder and feet areas.   So I'm imagining I could zip all that up into the 4-sided zipper of the terrycloth cover,  and it'd hopefully become sort of a "unit".   Much more convenient when I'm flipping and rotating the lower base p/u pieces, especially.
