Allersoft Bedding Product Review

If you go to sleep at night, only to wake up feeling congested with fluid in your nasal passages and ears, you are not alone. Many people suffer from allergies caused by sleeping with millions of dust mites every night.

Luckily, there is help. AllerSoft mattress, comforter, and pillow covers, available at many online retailers, protect allergy-prone sleepers from dust particles or pet dander that can hide deep within their mattresses and pillows. Made of a fabric blend of 40 percent pure cotton and 60 percent polyester, these coverings will not shrink or change dimension in the wash.

The price may seem a bit steep (around $30 for a crib covering up to $125 for a King-size with deep pockets), but these mattress pads are durable enough to last for years, made of a breathable fabric, and very comfortable. Unlike other allergy-minded bed covers, AllerSoft covers don’t make noises when you roll around the bed or move your head on the pillow covers. In fact, these products, made of a tight-weave fabric, turn softer in each wash cycle.

If you do buy this product, make sure to wash it in hot water and tumble dry as normal. And you’ll feel confident in Allersoft’s 5 year warranty, though the company also provides a lifetime guarantee on some products. Even after going through the wash 100 times, these covers have still been proven to be as effective as at the time of purchase.

Because the mattress cover is designed to encase the whole bed, you may find (as I did) that it is a little taxing to take on and off. Each encasing is zippered for security. To put it on, you’ll also need at least two adults to lift up the mattress vertically, and slip on the cover to fit tightly like a sock. But luckily, you will only need to remove and wash it a few times a year.

In the end, the work you put into suppressing dust mites will improve your nighttime sleep routine ten-fold, and you’ll start to feel refreshed in the mornings instead of drowsy. Allersoft encasing products are available individually or they may be purchased in a value package where you’ll get everything you need to block out common bedding allergens.

If buying the mattress cover, make sure to measure the depth so you get one that fits-these can vary from 9 to 18 inches in depth. Allersoft products are available online at www.achooallergy.com or www.onlineallergyrelief.com among other retailers.
