I bought 3 sets of sheets 6 months ago and alternate them evenly. Two sets were from a national retailer and the other set was these Egypyian Cotton 600 sheets which were the highest thread count and the best bargain. On average they have been washed 8 times and slept on for a total of 2 months. The bottom sheets have pilled and are absolutely uncomfortable. The pillow cases are beginning to pill as well. In addition, these are the most difficult sheets to iron as hard wrinkles set-in, even if pulled directly from the dryer. The pillow-cases are difficult to iron and impossible to fold properly since they were sewn "out of square" -- even though there are only 2 seams!!! I noticed the label states that these sheets were "made in Egypt" which verifies the claim to be Egyptian sheets. A website about Egyptian Cotton states "The more you wash the fibers the more our product will relax and the SOFTER they will become." I'm not sure that pilling is part of the softening process. These sheets are now out of the cycle with the other 2 sets which have not shown the same wear charcteristics. The Egyptian Cotton sheets will be reserved for guests who stay too long.
They sheets were ok for awhile, but after a couple of washes, those little fuzz balls started to appear and won't go away. I hate that. They did look great and matched my bed set perfectly. I don't think I'll buy this particular brand again. Nevertheless, Overstock.com is still a great place to shop. I've bought numerous things from the website.
I was really having a hard time looking for sheets to go with my lavender/tan bedroom---without breaking my pocketbook. It was a toss up between these and another set---I'm so glad I purchased these. Was pleasantly surprised at the quality, color, softness and as an added bonus, it MATCHED the duvet cover I purchased awhile back on the "O". I did not realize this as the color on my monitor did not show all the details that are great on this set. I put them in the washer--on COLD WATER, DELICATE --NO FABRIC SOFTNER--(was told that is what can make sheets 'pill'--you know, those nasty little pieces of threads that stick up and are very scratchy) and then into the dryer on low heat. Came out Perfect--no Fading, Pilling, Shrinking. They are so soft and elegant looking. The people that leave bad reviews probably don't know about the washing of these kind of sheets---I admit in the past, that I would use fabric softner and they would come out all 'pilled' and scratchey. The fabric softner 'messes' with the threads somehow in the sateen sheets. Anyway--just a little tidbit of info for all you out there that end up with paying alot of $$$$ and your sheets end up 'pilling'. Paid a little more than I wanted too, but so much worth it---and still a lot cheaper than any department store. Get these sheets and watch how you lauder them---you will be very pleased. Love ya, "O".
The sheets looked beautiful and were very soft, until I washed them. They lost the silky look and feel. I washed them according to the directions before using them and I was very disappointed in the quality. I would not recommend them.
These sheets are worth every penny. They are very inexpensive compared to what you would buy retail from a store. Go with these non-sateen finish sheets. They do not pill up like the sateen sheets do. They launder well and feel great. I am going to pick up another set so get yours before I do.
Love these sheets. They are soft and comfortable. Contemporary design. And a great price! Great value.
This sheet set is perfect, great color and soft, Sheets get softer with every wash. I have bought 2 other colors and matching duvet covers!
This was a gift but the report was that the product was excellent.
These sateen sheets are very soft and very slippery. Looks good on the bed and feels good too.
What a let down! I was very disappointed when I received these sheets. For the cost and thread count, I was expecting high quality - WRONG! They were rough and lightweight. On top of the disappointment in quality, I had to spend my valuable time repackaging and returning them - after anticipating their arrival for a week. UGH. Do yourself a favor - keep scrolling through other pages of options. These sheets are misrepresented. I say all of this with much love - for I am a positive person with a great attitude - I feel the need to spare future customers from being disappointed.
