Got these a while back. Very thin and not very breathable. Not sure how I sweat in sheets this thin but I do. You were warned. Go 100% Egyptian cotton. Pay up they are AWESOME
Anything that advertises itself as being “breathable” is 100% going to make you sweat while you sleep. I renewed my Costco membership just so I could buy another set of their cotton sheets. Durable, soft, and won’t make you wake up feeling disgusting.
(okay fine, it was for the rotisserie chicken too)
@jakeline Be honest, it was also for the giant pack of the Kirkland bog rolls that are too big to fit in the 1950s-style in-wall roll holders, wasn’t it? (Because two rolls will do an entire lawn…)
@yakkoTDIUnholy sheets, Robin. These are only half rayon, which would be bad enough, but the other half is the diabolical microfiber that drives a person to awaken sweaty and unrested, and renders them more likely to turn to a life of crime! That’s why we use only 100% cotton!
I always thought cotton sheets (sometimes with sateen blends) were the peak of reasonable comfort, but a friend convinced me to try real bamboo sheets, and I will never use anything else during warm weather again. So soft, so much heat dissipation.
With some cool nights coming around, I swapped on some 500TC sheets a couple weeks ago. There have been a few warmer days/nights since, and I can now confidently say the bamboo sheets alone increase my “sleep comfortably” range by 3-4F.
The sheets for sale today are not bamboo, so I’m not saying you should buy them. But I do recommend trying some real ones.
The sheets I love are Target Threshold brand. Not only are they cotton, they have BY FAR the best corners in the business. I just can’t believe the elastic on these suckers, and I don’t know why every manufacturer doesn’t copy it.
@jgoldshlag And if you have an actual use for plastic sheets, like covering a hole in your roof, or a bed-wetter, these aren’t plastic enough for that!

@bugger @mediocrebot Hey now, the bot only does what it’s told to do. Which probably embarrasses it.
you’re an all-star
@bugger @mediocrebot @werehatrack Sadly he got over he fear of ants.
@bugger @mediocrebot @werehatrack @yakkoTDI
But he’s self-aware - Mediocrebot is an asshole.
Only cotton. Never again microswetting.
There’s bamboo in rayon to exactly the same degree that there is dead plankton in petroleum.

@jakeline Exactly. They are the best sheets!! But, they are almost alway low or out of stock so grab them when you can

“Material: 49.99% Rayon from Bamboo / 49.99% 105 GSM Microfiber”.
And a 99.99% meh experience guaranteed.
And I guess the other 0.02% is dead plankton.
@phendrick Now I understand the prices!
$29.99 is money, and 0.01% is dead plankton.
Holy sheet Batman!

@werehatrack 100% cotton also makes me sweat. I don’t turn off my fan until it drops to about 65 in the house.
My first thought was “Hey, a new Halloween custome.” Then I saw the last picture. Drat, folded again.
@hchavers Fold me once, shame on you. Fold me twice… you won’t be folded again.
/image george w bush fool me
@hchavers Isn’t that supposed to be “Curses! Folded again!”
Is rayon stain resistant? Asking for a friend
@mexicantacos No.
Perfect for your new mattress from…

I don’t understand the demand for plastic sheets. Who buys this shit?
@jgoldshlag And if you have an actual use for plastic sheets, like covering a hole in your roof, or a bed-wetter, these aren’t plastic enough for that!
@jgoldshlag They’re only mostly plastic
@jgoldshlag @Pufferfishy 49.9%, so only largely plastic.
I dunno if that’s worse…

Bamboo? Yep. Nope! See you tomorrow…
I got these a few years ago from meh and they ripped pretty quickly. Save your money.
@chibisara Wow you must have been rough housing it on your bed for them to rip
Do the straps hold in the moisture so they’re extra sweaty?
@Pufferfishy The straps hold you down to make sure you stay sweaty.
shipping makes this deal a bust…
@bek8806 Without shipping, the products wouldn’t arrive at your address.
@Rowsdower Thanks for the obvious. Shipping COST - should be understood.

I need deeeeeeep pocket King Cali, i hopped on the vintage sheets last year and they’re ok but they slip off the mattress
For this price it’s worth the gamble no matter the scrutiny

Ssssshhhhhhh I’m asleep on my new sheets!
