--- What makes the different from Brolly Sheets' other protectors?
The our soft-touch entry-level range — designed to offer genuine waterproof protection at a more accessible price point. Our other protectors use quilted or cotton terry tops. The Essential uses a 100% microfibre polyester surface that's soft, lightweight, and easy to care for. Same reliable waterproof backing, simpler construction. Is it actually waterproof — or just water-resistant?
Waterproof. The backing is laminated with polyurethane, which forms a proper barrier between liquid and your mattress. It's the same technology used across our protector range. Will the soft-touch top feel noisy or crinkly to sleep on?
No. The 100% microfibre polyester surface is quiet and soft — it doesn't have the rustling sound or stiff feel that some budget waterproof protectors have. The polyurethane layer is on the underside, away from the sleeper. What size mattresses does it fit?
The available in Single (190 x 91 cm), King Single (204 x 107 cm), Double (190 x 138 cm), Queen (204 x 152 cm), King (204 x 168 cm), and Super King (204 x 183 cm). The 40 cm stretch skirt fits mattresses up to 40 cm deep. How do I wash it?
Machine wash with similar colours — wash before first use. Line dry where possible, or tumble dry on low heat. Do not bleach, iron, or dry-clean. Avoid fabric softener — it can affect the absorbency and waterproofing over time. Is it suitable for toilet training and bedwetting?
Yes — it's ideal for both. The waterproof backing protects the mattress, and the fitted-sheet style means it's quick to change in the middle of the night. It's machine washable and handles frequent laundering well. Is this suitable for incontinence?
Yes. The waterproof polyurethane-laminated backing provides a reliable barrier for incontinence use. It's available in all standard bed sizes and is suitable for home or facility use. For heavier needs, you may also want to consider the Brolly Sheet Bed Pad with Wings used on top for extra protection. How long will it last?
With correct care, the designed to last through regular use and frequent washing. Avoid fabric softener, bleach, and high heat — these degrade the waterproof laminate over time. Inspect periodically and replace if the waterproofing shows signs of wear. Brolly Sheets – the company
