Does anyone have experience using these to keep a mattress topper in place? Was wondering if they would help to keep a topper from shifting.

I haven't found them useful as the topper still shifts down and buckles up. It may have been worse before I tried them, but this is no real resolution. I have a tempurpedic mattress, and that might be the reason.

Hi M. Luker, Yes the sheets absolutely do stay in place. The pad may add a little extra height to the mattress so be sure to have sheets that are capable of fitting a higher mattress. I do have one set that is not as deep, but the sheets do still stay on.

If your mattress fills the cover completely, it should stay in place. Mine does.

Their main purpose is to keep the corners tight and from slipping up the mattress. I honestly haven't noticed if it has kept the sheet wrinkle free but it is definitely tight on the mattress.

I'm not completely sure that they would work for that. They are more designed to apply constant and secure tension to a sheet or mattress cover so that it will stay affixed to a mattress. You may be able to modify them or apply them so that they hold a comforter inside a cover, but it might require some creativity. In any case, the clips are very solid and secure, so I think with a little creativity, you could make it work.

They don't exactly lock into place. There is grooves they set in to keep them in place. I have not had problems with them moving so it seems to work for me.

I have a Tempurpedic mattress with a 3" topper for a softer feel (a lower density memory foam than the TP) and I had the same problem with the topper moving off the mattress,even with a well fitted mattress pad. Very annoying,until I bought a "no-slip/non-skid" mesh originally used under rugs on hardwood floors. This solved the problem beautifully and the topper has not moved an inch under the mattress pad since. I bought a roll of the stuff from an online futon retailer which promote it used to avoid futons sliding off the frame. Cost total was about $14 incl.shipping.

Hey Darlene! I'll be glad to answer. The strips are slightly rough which in itself discourages movement. I use them on a silicon mat which helps keep them in place as well. I would also recommend a long rolling pin, it really helps when working with these. Also, consider getting 2 sets as that way you can make a box shape that allows you to roll in both directions rather than just one. Hope this helps

They hook like suspenders so you could either place them straight across, or crisscross them just along the sides. I hooked mine to a mattress pad & only remove them for washing. They keep it in place without adjustments.

I did not buy them to put under my sheets. I put them on top of my covers for my dog to sleep on and also put them on the floor in case she has an accident since she is elderly. However, I think once I did put it under my sheet when comforter was being washed and forgot I had put it there and slept on it for a couple of days and didn't realize it was there until took off sheets.

If you have a thick mattress, you would just place them a little higher (towards the top of the bed) so they stretch more. The strap is adjustable to increase the tension. I have an 18" mattress and the straps work on even the tightest sheets. Hope this helps!

I had similar issues with my roomy. I finally just bought it for the King bed and now he really likes it. I wouldn't want the drop off between us if only covering 1/2 of bed. Can't answer if it would shift. JUST BUY IT! Only 2-1/2 inches but makes a world of difference if bed is too firm. Not good for soft mattress.

I have queen sheets on a full mattress. I love the way the topper sleeps, but it drives me absolutely crazy the way it slides off the edge every couple of days.

No they do not tuck under mattress. You can put them under the fitted sheet to keep them in-place better. The tossing and turning do not cause any problem. When the person slides down on the mattress we use it as a means of pulling them back-up and that gradually moves the protector.

I just saw a thing called the "mattress helper" that help prop-up a sagging mattress, if that's what you've got going on. If, on the other hand, your mattress is too hard for your comfort, a thick, foam might be helpful. If you buy that kind of foam you'll need a cover between you and the foam - and this cover might work depending on the thickness of your mattress. I like a firm mattress with thick foam - supports you yet feels cooshy.

They work for ours. We have a split king sleep number bed (Aspire) They are very comfortable. No problem keeping them on when raising and lowering the head and foot. Have had no problems with washing or softness. I do use fabric softener and bounce sheet in dryer.
