I have the zip matteress cover from John lewis and have recently bought pillows and protectors etc from Marks and Spencers. They are endorsed with approval from allergy UK. I will say though the firm pillow is very squidgy and not what i would call firm. I gave it to my son who loves it.

Fogerty also do a new range of allergy pillows and quilts.

If you go to allergy UK link below and click products next to the yellow seal of approval it will show you all the products they have endorsed.

Hi

I have the zipper one from John Lewis - it's pricey - £50!!!

I find it a bit tricky as my son is only 3 and is a bed wetter!!! The cover says it's not tumble driable - but i don't want to hang it on the line as esp in summer it will get covered in pollen!! and in winter will take an age to dry. so i do stick it in tumble (zipped up) we haven't had any problems with it - but i think it won't last so long!!!
