All CKI products are designed for the rigorous use in the hotel and cruise industry, meaning they are built “hotel strong”.
- Do you put your mattress pad above or below the Sofa Sleeper Mattress Encasement? If the reason you are using an encasement is to avoid allergens or bed bugs, we recommend that you cover both the mattress pad and the mattress with the Sofa Sleeper Mattress Encasement.
