Purchased the complete set of king size guardmax waterproof/bed bug encasements from duvet cover, mattress, to box springs to protect against bugs of any sort ruining my bed/bedding (the very thought of bed bugs and dust mites gives me the creeps and itchies 😳).. we live in a townhouse so it's imperative that we have protection from the creepers. Well all of the items purchased failed to do this. I purchased them in October 2024 and discovered I had a minor issue with bed bugs in December 2024. I had no company during this period and the items did have small black dots in the packaging (I was per washing instructions prior to placing on my duvet, mattress, and box springs. The king size box springs item is one large encasement, no felt to line the railing etc. with was included with this item (I purchased and did this myself) and this was an issue for me as most traditional king size beds have two separate boxes under the mattress. I made it work by making a clip to stabilize the two pieces together then slide a mattress encasement over the two followed by the box springs encasement. I then stabilized them on each side to ensure no shifting that could rub holes in the cover. After doing all this I did notice the encasement was still a little bit too big as it sagged under the bed. I started noticing that I had bites everywhere with no explanation and I would itch all night and day. I felt like something was biting me which lead to me searching for the cause and I found holes all in the seams of all the encasements and what looked like bed bugs 💩 here and there but never found any bugs. I treated with crossfire and purchased the whole line of Clean Rest Pro encasements (now these are worth the money and so luxurious) and I haven't had any further issue. I would pass on this item and shop around for something that won't fail and/or be delivered dirty possibly infested. 5 stars to make sure this review is seen .
