 Functional, but not luxury March 11, 2008

After washing them a couple of times the best I can describe them is: Hospital Sheets.
They're not uncomfortable, they're not wonderfully soft. They are however, pretty cheap*. And appear to be well made. No fraying or runs in the fabric. They're heavy, solid feeling. I'd buy them for kids beds, teens heading off to college...But I might not buy them again if I was looking for a set of "good" sheets.
*When I bought them on sale. I would not ever pay eighty bucks for these sheets!

These sheets have been washed several times with minimal shrinkage. I have a very deep mattress and they fit nicely.
Very happy with these sheets March 28, 2008

I purchased these for my guest bed because they were a great buy and have had very happy guests, they love the sheets. The sheets are soft and comfortable and are getting softer after several washes. I've recommended them to several friends and of course my guests.

These sheets are quality although they are not colorful. As one reviewer states, they are not soft. If they were soft, they would be thin, low-thread-count sheets which most people have come to accept as standard. Just use fabric softener, and these sheets will feel great. I am fed up with thin sheets. Once you use a quality sheet, you won't go back to the others.
 Okay for me, but with big caveats September 8, 2008

Before shopping for sheets, it is imperative to know the depth of your mattress. I have a pillowtop with a 2 inch foam pad on top of that, for a total of 14 inches. After researching every sheet set on Amazon, I settled on these because of the 510 thread count, sateen finish, the fitted sheet fitting an 18 inch mattress, and the price of $30.99. I subsequently purchased a second set when Amazon ran them the next week for $25.
What I didn't have access to until I received the sheets were the washing instructions, which are to (1) machine wash in cold water separately, and (2) tumble dry low. They were made in China.
Putting the sheets on the bed directly from the package, the fitted sheet definitely would fit an 18 inch deep mattress; there was room to spare to the point that I had to tuck in the bottom sheet. There was a nice, shiny sateen finish to the sheets. I was further impressed because the top sheet was ample, to the point that there was a 16 inch drape on each side, and around 5 to 6 inches to tuck in at the bottom. The pillow cases were very ample.
While I am able to wash in cold water, my dryer does not have a low setting (old Maytag, which will probably outlive me), only an air dry setting, which would never ever get these sheets dry. This presented a problem in that I had to use regular heat to dry the sheets. Naturally, I expected shrinkage. After the first wash and dry, the bottom sheet now just fits my 14 inch deep mattress. The top sheet lost length, probably between 3 and four inches, but it did not lose on the width. The pillow cases are a snugger, but not difficult, fit. This information is provided because if you intend to use these sheets for an 18 inch deep mattress, you need to follow the washing/dry instructions exactly to avoid shrinkage. Frankly, I'm not sure that the low drying heat called for wouldn't cause some shrinkage anyway.
I just finished washing and drying these sheets for the second time in order to determine whether more shrinkage would occur (a completely different set purchased from Overstock shrank over several washes). These did not. Regarding the sateen finish, however, it is gone, which, again, may be due to using regular heat for drying; yet, the sheets are soft, not scratchy (used a dryer sheet). This information is pointed out, again, to show that care instructions must be strictly followed to preserve the finish and the size of these sheets. Insofar as wrinkles, I take my sheets out immediately; these do not wrinkle too badly, but do not expect wrinkle free. The instructions say you can use a "medium heat" iron if you want, but I am not bothered by minor wrinkling.
