Does the waterproof layer make it slippery against the mattress?

Slightly, but not as much as your typical one. It's pretty tight against the bed so it's not very noticeable.

Since putting this item on my mattress, I don't find it slippery in any way. Good product made in the USA.

I have 2 dogs that are jumping on playing on the bed while I shower and get ready for work. The mattress cover is staying in place through all the rowdiness.

Not at all. The sheet sort of clings to the mattress pad, but in a good way. I like the pad and recommend it highly.

When you put it on it glides or slips. Once you cover with fitted sheet, it does not move at all.

No, it's not a cooling mattress protector, but the waterproof backing doesn't make one's back feel hot and sweaty like some rubber-backed or plastic-backed materials do.

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.

It's not a separate cover - I use a waterproof mattress pad over the mattress.

The cover isn't noisy. I don't know about mattress protection. I haven't tested it with a spill, I sleep cool and mattress looks OK when I wash the cover. It washes, dries and looks good. Price was good for what is promised. Good Luck

The sides are a stretchy fabric that is different from the top of the matress protector. The top has a layer of waterproof material underneath the terrycloth. I doubt that the sides are completely waterproof, but liquid might roll off, as it is finely woven and slick. I haven't spilled anything on it, so I am not 100 percent sure of this.

Yes , my experience with water proof covers is that they are a bit bigger than the actual mattress . I think waterproof cover and sheets are the same thing, but just to communicate clearly I am referring to a waterproof mattress cover.

I have found this cover to be cooler than others that I have tried. There seems to be a bit more air circulation. Not a dramatic difference but enough for me. I would definitely put a waterproof cover between this and the mattress. Sweat filters down through the cover and has caused my foam mattress topper to get moldy. This is not unique to this cover. I have found that all covers have the same problem. You will need to provide a way for the area to air out and get dry in order to combat this. An absorbent layer (towel) on top of your mattress that is changed frequently may help.

It's waterproof. I've also found that changing table mattress covers work great as a cover too.

My pack and play mattress has a plastic cover so it is waterproof. The sheets are just padded a little to help the mattress not be so hard.

Yes very slippery that's the only problem I have with it. Hope I was able to help.

It is not slippery. Between the fabric and the raised pattern on it, it is fairly sticky. When I roll over it tends to stick to my knees rather than the sheets.

No it is not real slippery. My granddaughter stays under it fine and she moves around a lot while she sleeps.

Yes it's extremely thin. It's like having an extra fitted sheet on your matters. Even without the bed being made up you wouldn't be able to tell it's waterproof unless you took it off and felt the underside.

No it doesn't get slippery. It's a very good product and very easy to install!

I have the clear one. Mine is not slippery even when there is a lot of soap on it. It had small drainage holes that let the soapy water run out. Very satisfied with it. Will have a funny smell when new and dry but it goes away after about 1 week of daily use.

It doesn't let moisture make its way down to the the mattress.The mattress pad its self will get get wet in its top layer of material but it is waterproof. It is also not crinkly or noisy like cheap or old versions of waterproof mattress pads. When i took it out of wash a couple days ago i actually noticed how well it is holding up.
