I just got the Foam By Mail Terry Cloth Zippered Cover I ordered for my toppers. That meant I had to take everything off the bed to zip it all up - ugh!

The cover is supposed to be Terry Cloth, but it feels more like velour. It's nice and stretchy, and the zipper goes all the way around all 4 sides. I had to lay the cover out flat on the foundation, stack the toppers, fit the cover over it all and stretch the cover as I zipped it up. It wasn't difficult and it looks great, like an S mattress. The bottom of the cover has tiny textured dots that prevent everything from sliding on the foundation. Not really necessary when you have a ton of latex zipped up in it! The top part is washable, but the bottom is not.

The Queen size was $64.99, and holds 8" of latex. I have two 3" toppers (Extra Firm and Medium Firm), and one 2" topper (Medium Plush), with a cotton mattress pad on top.

Sounds wonderful narnia! I have a thin micro-plush protector that feels like velour. I used it on my TP and it felt smooth and luxurious. If I could get it tight enough to not have a wrinkle, I would use it over my Flobed cover so as not to feel the stitching. Like Leo, I'm very sensitive to stitching, bunches, or wrinkles. Anything will set the hips to burning. Also, I prefer a smooth top. I've actually borrowed Leo's set-up of using a blanket under my bottom sheet. It's cozy and smooth.

Rearranging/ redoing the bed is a task, but seems like you've got a great set up going!cool


Natalia, couldn't you put another thin topper over your Flobed cover and then encase it in the protector? That would make it fit snugly and not wrinkle.
