I see that this says "fitted" but I'm wondering if it has the large amount of elastic material that makes it a tight fit regardless of mattress depth? I have the Malouf "Encase" mattress protector on my bed but even though I have a double pillow-top...

Yes, it will fit tightly to any mattress, as the sides of the mattress pad have elastic all the way down. It will fit a thin mattress up to a very thick mattress with no issue whatsoever. (I can't say enough good things about this mattress pad--it really stays in place well!)

My mattress is 9 1/2" deep and I have no problem with the fit. I think it would fit an even deeper mattress. There has been no shrinking problem, but I have washed in cold water and line dried outside. I will be using a dryer over the winter, so I'll find out about shrinkage then.

I love mine. I helps me, but I have to tell you that it is not the only thing I have on there. It is about 4" thick. I also have a padded mattress cover over it, so between the two my bed is soft, but firm. The only problem I have now is having sheets that will stay on it. I am going to try some sheet clips and see if that helps. I hope this helps you.

It's around the corners and short ends (top and bottom of mattress) and not the long sides, which doesn't pose a problem, because it is of a generous size. I have a pillow top mattress, and it fits very well.

It has elastic all the way around, but it's some of the weakest elastic I've ever seen and does not hold the fitted sheet in place. Instead of being tight on my very deep mattress, the fitted sheet is loose and moves around. Sadly, I will probably throw these sheets away.

I can't answer that specifically; the mattress I use it on is Full with a Pillow top -- and it fits very nicely there. My experience with futon mattresses is that they tend to be flatter -- so I cannot accurately tell you if the elastic would pull snug on a flat mattress. Sorry I can't be of more help there.

I currently have it on an eight inch mattress and it fits fine. The sides are stretchy and will conform kind of like spandex( not as stiff)The sides just hug under the mattress further than if the mattress were thicker like with a pillow top.

I have a normal mattress and it fits well but it doesn't like to stay on. I don't know if its the material of the sheets or the elastic isn't the best. I still love the sheets. I got the corner straps that help hold it to the bed.

I have a pillow top and mine is very thick. They fit and have room. Elastic which makes it nice. I love it. No problems so far.

The material is soft and the cover goes all around the mattress and closes by zipping it shut so that nothing can get through it. No it doesn't slip like one that is elasticized. Hope this helps.

Good questions Joan. No I don't have that problem. I've been happy with it. It fits over my deep sized mattress and has stood up with multiple washings. I think you'd be happy with it.

Standard queen sheets do work--I've put on fitted and normal sheets without issue. I've never used a mattress protector, but it should work. Size-wise should fit fine, unless it's the the ones where you need to stretch it around the corners--this is about twice the thickness as a standard mattress, so anything that needs to fit around the bottom itself and not stretch around the sides could have an issue.

This encasement is quite large as is, so expect it to be very loose. Maybe you can tuck in the extra fabric under the mattress...

My mattress is 12 inches deep, and it fits fine. The outside edge of it seems to be pretty strechy/good elastic, so I'm sure it will fit around a less deep mattress as well.

We have a deep mattress with a mattress pad so in our case it seems fitted. If you had a smaller set up it may be loose.

We have a pillow top mattress & it fits a little loose. The mattress we have is almost 11"'s thick. I hope that helps. We got two, one for the mattress & one for the box spring. That seems to have helped a lot. Once we got the frame rails cleaned up. We also bought the sticky traps if any are hiding in the carpet.

My mattress is tight too...but it does fit. All mattresses for cribs are tight so the baby doesn't get stuck in the gap. If the mattress is the same dimensions as the crib is ....it should be fine. I don't remember which mattress I ordered but it was for a mini crib since the directions stated NOT to use a full thickness.
