Can I place a futon cover/ slip cover on top of this protector? Or would it be better to just go buy a fitted sheet and put that on top of it? Thx!

Putting a futon cover on top of either, I believe would be a challenge. However, I would choose the water-proof one over just a regular fitted sheet.

You could put anything you want on top of it. I guess it depends on what you're using it for. I've used ours for our beds to protect the mattresses and I put the fitted sheet for the bed right on top. If you're using it for a futon, I would say you could put the futon cover on top.

This protector is very thin. Unlike a traditional mattress cover it is just a protected top with a spandex like ring around it that holds it to your mattress. It is rather large, and built to stretch around a tall mattress but you could definitely fit a futon cover over-top it.

This cover should be good for storage. I know my movers told me that these covers were the best they had seen. If I was going to store a mattress I would be comfortable using these covers. I would make sure that whatever size your futon is that the cover you buy will fit it. FYI... The King size does not completely cover a Cal-King mattress. I would have to buy 2 covers to cover the mattress.

You can fold the pad under the wedge and/or cover the whole thing with a fitted sheet. The wedge doesn't slide but you may slide down on the wedge!

Good morning. Forgive my delay in responding, in the hospital attending to my Dad... You are right in that the Encase Protctive Cover has a significant amount of play with regard to the depth, but though I am rather anal with my bedding, have not found this cover in any way uncomfortable, having placed the 'slack' side-which has elastic running around its perimeter- to the underside of the mattress. You do not say whether you are purchasing the cover as 'general protection,' or as a remedy for or guard against bedbugs. Having just gone through THAT horrific ordeal, let me assure you that any inconvenience that might have even remotely been perceived by the Encase Protctive Cover would have been tolerated! Once the matress pad and then the top sheet is in place, the Encase Protctive Cover cover does not move about, at all. More importantly the quality of the Encase Protctive Cover was wonderful. Soft, pliable, and without the plastic feel of several of the covers! All and all, a good choice! We are quite satisfied with them, now using the Encase Protctive Covers to protect a total of four of our mattresses and box springs. (Though I will admit to not being quite as satisfied with the box spring covers which do not seem as durable. Were I to do it again I might choose to use the mattress covers for both, despite the cost.) There you have it... Hope this has helped.

I had actually never thought about a protector for it, unfortunately! But there is a 25 year warranty on the mattress though!!

Yes, you can put a sheet over the mattress cover. I recommend that you do put a sheet over the mattress cover because it will protect it.

Hmmm, no definitive answer on that. I 've slept on a Futon so I know what you're talking about. I'm on a seraphina 14 inch gel/foam mattress so I'm super comfy. My inclination would be to add a foam gel topper to your futon over this product.

Mattress protector only covers the top. Nothing for the sides and bottom. The only thing covering the sides is the material needed to hold the mattress protector on the mattress.

I have it on my California King bed- once it unfold and rises- it will not lay flat- you will need to remove it each time you wNt to add it to your futon

Let it air out for a day maybe 2 so it can inflate. I put mine right under my bed sheet, so yes put it on top of your mattress cover. Hope it works for you as good as it works for me. Very important to let it air out though.

Go to a fabric place and buy a top cover for it ....I use blankets and sheets and different top covers and wash them weekly to avoid having to take off the cover.

I don't know of anybody having a cover. You could try it out of a sheet, but don't use any thing heaver.

You can put the fitted sheet over it if your mattress is not super thick- mine is new so it is too big for the sheets to fit well with the topper on it. I just kind of wrapped it in an extra flat sheet and it sits on my mattress and fitted sheet. It is really comfy!

Yes you should. I use it with a sheet on top no different than we do the adult size mattress covers.

A mattress cover? For what reason? If you mean like A fitted sheet it may work but I'm not sure why you would want to. It's not comfortable enough to use as your everyday couch or to sleep on for more than a nap. The point of this piece is the look of it and a cover would change that. Not sure if this is any help at all

I did just that. Bought two to fit under a full size futon. My futon cover happened to be oversized, though, so I put these inside with the futon. For that reason, I can't say if they'll slip out. It is super comfy though. I got the idea because the J-life web site sells these for just that purpose but in larger sizes at a greater price.
