Awards

The Comfier Sleep Bamboo Crib Mattress Protector won Gold for Best Bedding in the Mother&Baby Awards 2025. Check out what our eight parent testers thought of the protector when they tried it out with their little ones!

Testing the Comfier Sleep Bamboo Crib Mattress Protector

"My first impressions were positive as it is nicely packaged and the box makes impressive claims such as anti-allergy, antibacterial and ultra soft," said a pleased mum who tested the protector. The packaging lives up to the product's eco-friendly reputation, too, with another tester telling us: "I liked that it came in a paper box so it could be recycled."

Parents loved the fabric that the mattress protector used, with one mum telling us that "it’s very soft, it’s very good quality, and it is built for comfort", while another tester said "it lacks the bulky feel that a lot of other protectors have". This doesn't mean that it sacrifices effectiveness - one happy parent said: "It’s waterproof yet soft to touch. The mattress protector is very soft, does not crinkle or crease, you wouldn’t know it is there."

This subtle fit was another highlight for our testing team. "The design of it is very clever and can fit different size cribs," said a tester, telling us: "I have a very large crib and if it fits it very well". The protector features an elastic skirt, which helps to keep it in place, but one mum told us that "even when it hasn’t got elastic bands to hold on the mattress, it does not move once you put the bedsheet on top." Amazing!

Leak protection is incredibly important for a good mattress protector, and the Comfier Sleep Bamboo Crib Mattress Protector doesn't disappoint. "It is truly waterproof and helps to keep the mattress dry when babies nappy leaks or she is sick," said a happy parent. Another parent reported: "We are also experiencing teething so we do have dribble that used to leave the mattress wet. The product didn’t do that and soaked up any excess, therefore allowing it to dry quicker."

"It is easy to care for with clear instructions on how to wash effectively," said a mum reporting back on the ease of cleaning the product. Considering its job is to protect against leaks, a mattress protector is going to get dirty over time, so it's good to know that cleaning won't be a hassle. "It is easy to clean, just put it in the washing machine," said another tester, claiming that it "is very easy to fold up and put away and takes up nearly no room in your airing cupboard."

Final verdict

Overall, the protector really impressed our testers, and they had lots of reasons to recommend it to other parents. A particularly happy mum told us: "Our baby has slept on it every night since it was delivered and it doesn't rustle when he moves, which is perfect!" One more tester summed it up well, telling us, "I think this product is amazing. It is soft, comfortable, and durable, everything you would need in a match protector to keep a little ones safe and comfortable at night."
