Hi,
As above really please. I am finding myself doing lots of research and thought it might be simpler to ask the people in the know and save myself some time!
For my DS's aged 4 and 3's bunkbeds.
I have a rubbish mothecare plastic tie-on sheet which is annoying and slides everywhere and falls off at the moment and am looking for a better alternative.
Thanks Thanks

John lewis sell them. Fully fitted with brushed cotton top. Though they ate scrimping on quality these days so I don't think they are worth the money anymore.

Ikea sell waterproof bed mats. Like the thrown away huggies ones but not throw away. You wash and reuse.

You could make the bed up three times with them so you just pull a pile of wet bedding off in night and voila clean bedding underneath.

we have some from dunelm mill which were really inexpensive, but very nice.
i prefer them to the expensive hippychick ones we had for DS1

M&S and BHS do them.

hippychick for us. Can't fault them.

John Lewis do a nice towelling topped one, it isn't crinkly, and is very soft.

Thanks for all your replies. Satsuma I think the money saving element of the shower curtain option for me is outweighed by hefting around single mattresses on top bunks to realign the waterproof bit which is what I am doing at the mo with Mothercare sheet but thanks for the suggestion. I think I will go with the ease of a fitted sheet as I am lazy busy
