Awesome buy!
Amazon makes good products. This is my story on my endless search for perfect bedding. I have lupus, arthritis, laminectomy syndrome & hot flashes. I have to spend @ least 16 hours per day in bed because of my chronic pain & degeneration of muscle tissue. It started 11yrs ago, & I found out quickly having proper bedding can mean a world of difference in your ability to sleep all night & whether or not your skin gets dry, irritated, etc. For years I only used Ralph Lauren bedding. Period. But then when I closed my business, I had to shop more economically. I've always had a bit of an obsession over linens, my skin is VERY sensitive, & so I've learned quite a bit about fabrics, thread counts, & brands I can trust. These sheets have been just as good as my Ralph Lauren & Tahari brands. For people who run hot due to perspiration, hot flashes, etc., a medium grade of 350 to 550 thread count of 100% cotton will allow your skin to breathe, and for heat to escape thru the looser woven fabric, as opposed to the higher grade, tightly woven fabrics, which retain heat. I only use white, so I don't have any knowledge of if the colored sheets might fade. My white amazon basic sheet set is very breathable, they help keep my body COOL! Yea! They are medium weight, not too heavy against skin, yet not so thin they would tear. They wash very well. They are cotton, so no skin reactions like I get with microfiber or other fabrics. They have a nice sateen sheen, which gives them a light silky feeling, & I really like that. The sheets will fit up to @ least 20 or 22 inches deep & pillow cases are big & fit my extra stuffed pillows well. I also have a tempurpedic motion bed, so I sew strips of elastic across the 4 corners (which is great solution for motion bed sheet slipping & can even be done by hand) & the sheets have held up wonderfully with the alterations. I've bought 2 sets so far & will probably buy more for my guest rooms! They are a great buy & the price is great for the excellence of the product! And if I say they are great, they are. I'm very tough on reviews of bedding.
