FAQ
What does the 'value score' actually measure?+
The ‘value score’ is calculated by dividing the product rating by its price. This provides a single number representing how highly rated a mattress protector or topper is relative to its cost. A higher value score indicates a better rating for the money spent on that particular item.
Is the cheapest option always the best value?+
Not necessarily. While the Acrali Home 100% Waterproof Mattress Protector Double Bed, Non-Noisy, Terry Cotton, Extra Deep 40cm Fitted Skirt is currently the cheapest at £10.97, its value score of 0.401 is lower than other options.

The Caroline Shatuik Waterproof Mattress Protector King, 4.5/5 from 11364 reviews has significantly more reviews than other products in this listing, suggesting it is a well-regarded product within the selection.
