Accidents are a natural part of having a newborn. If you can make it through the first five years without any leaks, spills, or vomit, 1. tell us your secret and 2. mission impossible. As parents ourselves, we understand that a waterproof sheet is a necessity during this time, which is why we developed one and introduced it to the market. As a relatively new product to our bedding category, we wanted to hear feedback from you, our loyal customers.
Here are the reviews from four parents who tested the Waterproof Fitted Sheet to determine if it is truly waterproof.
"I absolutely loved this fitted sheet. It’s the only brand that I’ve brought from my son’s cot that has the secure band to keep the sheet nice and tight. We only have one night where my son’s bottle leaked and I had to change this sheets. The milk didn’t get through to his mattress so I’m impressed with that. Overall I would buy this again if there were more styles to choose from"
"The ergoPouch 2-in-1 Fitted Waterproof Sheet is a game-changer for parents looking for a practical and comfortable bedding solution. What I liked best about this product is its dual functionality—it serves as both a soft fitted sheet and a waterproof mattress protector, eliminating the need for multiple layers of bedding. The organic cotton top is gentle on the skin, and the waterproof layer effectively prevents leaks without feeling plasticky. It fits snugly on the mattress and stays in place, making it easy to use and wash. Overall, it's a well-designed, high-quality product that simplifies night-time accidents and cleaning. I’m looking forward to having this product on hand when we attempt toilet training with my little one in the upcoming weeks/months."
"The waterproof fitted sheet exceeds expectations. It is beautiful to look at and soft to touch, but completely protects mattresses from staining. The sheet has a nice large fit to cover the mattress completely, with tight elastic to hold it in place. The best feature is the wide middle strap that secure the sheet to the mattress around the centre, even the wriggliest kid couldn’t make this budge. It’s waterproof to not absorbs messes, but doesn’t feel or sound ‘plastic-ey’ like all the other waterproof sheets I’ve tried. The sheet launders well at home, and comes out pristine and still soft through line drying. This is the only sheet I will need for my cot, with it performing so well I don’t need back up sheets underneath."
"The fitted sheet has been amazing, it is really soft which is great for baby skin , as well as keeping the mattress dry. I will be buying this"
Now, what we all really want to know is whether there were any accidents during the trial, and how did the sheet hold up?
"During the trial, there was an overnight nappy leak. Thankfully, it held up well—there was no leakage through to the mattress, and the waterproof layer did its job effectively. After washing, I found that the sheet dried relatively quickly compared to other waterproof protector" - Emily
"It did not leak through, I found that it dried quick"- Lily R
"My toddler accidentally knocked the lid off his milk bottle while lying on the mattress. The liquid stayed on top of the sheet so I could just wipe it off with a cloth. No stain or damp spots left behind, just like the accident never happened."- Karina
"Did not have major spills but for little ones there was no leaking through and it dried very fast"- Lily N
...and how did our parents rate the quality
"The organic cotton top layer feels soft and breathable, making it comfortable for little ones to sleep on. After washing, the sheet maintained its shape and softness, with no signs of wear or shrinkage. We line dried it, and it dried quickly"- Emily
"The sheet is soft and smooth, my kid loved putting his face against it. After a wash, the sheet came out same as new, still just as soft - no crunchy feeling"- Karina
"The quality felt really high. I’m really impressed with the quality"- Lily R
"It washed really well , and dried in a resalable amount of time for a sheet" - Lily N
Compared to other brands in the market, the Waterproof Fitted Sheet stacked up well. Here's what our participants had to say
"With all other cot sheets, I put multiple layer on the mattress to protect it. But with ergoPouch’s waterproof fitted sheet, I don’t even need to put a seperate liner underneath. I am confident that messes and accidents can be wiped up without staining the sheet or leaving behind uncomfortable damp spots"- Karina
"Many waterproof protectors have a plasticky feel or make crinkling noises, but this one is soft, breathable, and silent."- Emily
"It is one of the best out of the other brands we have of cot sheets"- Lily R
"It's one of the best ones we have tried at this stage"- Lily N
Finally, will our participants purchase it again
"Yes, I think they are worth it and I feel like it’s going to last a long time"- Lily
"Yes- [It] does exactly what it says while still feeling as soft as a regular cot sheet is a great purchase in my opinion. I will be buying more, especially to get the cute other patterns"- Karina
"Yes -[It's] on the pricier side compared to standard waterproof protectors. However, given its high quality, dual functionality, and durability, I believe it’s worth the investment and I would certainly purchase for this price."- Emily
"Yes- It's worth the Money and makes changing the bed in middle of night so much better"- Lily N
