I"m surprised it ever stayed on without them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/craziest-mattress-problem#post-1974626 Thu, 15 Nov 2018 18:39:45 +0000 rachylou 1974626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh gosh. I probably DON’T have deep enough sheets. Where does one get deep-fit sheets? Where does one get sheets at all? Used to go to Macy’s, but our Macy’s is all clothes now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/craziest-mattress-problem#post-1974621 Thu, 15 Nov 2018 18:14:36 +0000 Anonymous 1974621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mattress pads and fitted sheets should have a depth given. My DSIL told me to go for deeper than the mattress because the pad and sheets my shrink some in the dryer. That has worked for me in the past. If anything fitted is a bit older it may have been designed for a thinner mattress.. I know that the deeper fitted sheets work well on my thinner mattress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/craziest-mattress-problem#post-1974354 Wed, 14 Nov 2018 16:28:08 +0000 rachylou 1974354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do love making hospital corners. Maybe I should try a flat sheet on the bottom. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/craziest-mattress-problem#post-1974328 Wed, 14 Nov 2018 13:51:49 +0000 Anonymous 1974328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I never had luck with those things either so gave up.

Not “in”—“at”. He often pulls the topsheet out, his mattress pad pops off, his pillow/case get all discombobulated.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/craziest-mattress-problem#post-1974033 Tue, 13 Nov 2018 03:27:33 +0000 rachylou 1974033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All right. I have linen *issues.* This is clear. So I’m remaking the bed after putting down a roll of the grippy stuff (fingers crossed!)... and ok... so like the pillowy stuff inside the pillow has twisted around longside-short and I can’t untwist it!</p> <p>This is *like* a major life fail here.

Heh. I wonder if it’s because I haven’t been using the mattress pad cover that came with the bed. It had an elastic band that wrapped around everything. Heh. But it snapped, the elastic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/craziest-mattress-problem#post-1973977 Mon, 12 Nov 2018 23:18:47 +0000 SW Ann 1973977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Using the sheet garters with a fitted or not fitted sheet, on top of the mattress pad that lays on top of the mattress--all should theoretically stay in place.&nbsp; It's interesting that it has stayed in place until recently.&nbsp; Maybe it's the pad that's worn out, not the mattress.&nbsp; Also liked the idea of "rug pad" but not sure what it would do to your mattress.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/craziest-mattress-problem#post-1973976 Mon, 12 Nov 2018 22:56:47 +0000 SW Ann 1973976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>I use clips to keep my fitted sheets on my extra tall mattress.&nbsp; Got them at Bed Bath and Beyond.&nbsp; They sell them in the sheet dept and look like garters.&nbsp; Work perfectly.&nbsp; However, I have no idea what you mean by "mattress topper"....please explain!</div><div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/craziest-mattress-problem#post-1973973 Mon, 12 Nov 2018 22:18:41 +0000 JAileen 1973973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Our bottom sheet always used to pop off until we bought a new mattress.

It’s a Dux! It’s not supposed to wear out! Or well, I guess the mattress pad isn’t the mattress. I wonder how much of the grippy stuff I’d need. Hmm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/craziest-mattress-problem#post-1973961 Mon, 12 Nov 2018 21:36:29 +0000 Helena 1973961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you mean the fitted sheet?

I have the craziest problem: my mattress topper (mattress pad) slides off. It didn’t used to do this! Any thoughts on what I can do? </p>
