California Design DenStandard Queen Size Pillowcase Set - 400 Thread Count, 100% Cotton Sateen, Set of 2 Pillow Covers, Breathable, Cooling, Soft for Quality Sleep - Taupe

I’m suuuper picky about my bedding. Only 100% cotton, and thread count is only one factor. The right feel, weight and breatheability is paramount. I’ve purchased 1,000 thread count sheets that felt like they should be used to protect lawn furniture from a rough winter in Alaska. I research and read a LOT of reviews before buying. After hours of research, I took a chance. Wow! These have such a beautiful finish and great look, with a perfect soft feel and breatheability. The quality of the weave and stitching is like sheets double the price. They launder perfectly and right out of the dryer they go on the bed smoothly with a beautiful sheen and no crinkly look. I love the deep pockets that actually fit my thick mattress without having to wrestle the fitted sheet like a rodeo steer. They also stay in place!!!! I waited to write my review, and I can honestly say that they look every bit as good as they did a year ago. I wash my sheets every three days in hot water and dry on high heat despite the instructions advising lower temperatures. I love the luxurious look and feel welcoming me to a superior sleep.

I can't tell you how many times I've looked for sheets, or how many reviews I've read, they are very difficult to buy online, but I'm not a huge in store shopper. I was looking for cotton sheets only, definitely not microfiber. I also don't like anything silky, smooth or satiny. I typically won't go any further on a product if I see the word sateen in the description, but I didn't even realize that with these sheets. I think I saw it in the description after I ordered them and I almost canceled. But I decided to give them a try because I just loved the peacock color. Im glad I did!! They definitely need to be washed well when you 1st get them, but they are a really nice set of sheets! Seem well made, fit our adjustable mattress well and I think in one of the reviews I read someone said that they get softer with more washes, and I would have to agree with that. They come out of the dryer without wrinkles for the most part and I've bought 4 pairs so far now! Their color choices are great, some nice saturated colors you don't see everywhere. We use flannel and fleece sheets in the winter, but these are our go to sheets now for the summer!

These are my all time favorite sheets, hands down. I love them SO MUCH.TL;DR: amazing soft and crisp cotton sheets that get better and better with every wash, incredible choice of colors, well worth the price tag.Now, these are cotton sheets, which means they will not always be wrinkle free. I don't care about that, because comfort is my top priority. And boy are these comfortable!!!! These are the perfect mix between soft and crisp in my opinion. A little bit about me: I have very specific touch sensory issues with sheets. For example, I HATE silk sheets, I think they feel weird. Same with microfiber sheets.They are super durable. I bought one set in April (it's currently near the end of September) and they have just gotten better and better. There has been no pilling either! I wash the pillow cases every week, and the sheets themselves every other week. I would wash them every week but coin laundry in my apartment is expensive lol.I bought the lavender gray color originally and it's gorgeous. My camera doesn't pick the color well :( but trust me, gorgeous! This review is for the sage green color, which I bought specifically for this new bedspread (made by Cathrin Machin btw). Please ignore the slightly wrinkled pillowcases, they sat in my laundry basket for a day. This color is also gorgeous!Now, I was originally hesitant to buy (what I consider to be) expensive sheets. It's been a weird transition with my first big girl job and actually having money to spend on quality things but it hasn't quite sunk in yet, but believe me they are so worth it, whether I was still in retail or making a nice amount of money. If you're still hesitant, put them in your saved for later and wait for the price to drop! Set up a price alert through a service like Honey.Just one wash truly does unlock the softness of them (as well as get rid of that manufacturer smell that comes with everything new), and every wash after that makes them softer. I love it because it makes me want to keep them forever! Why would I buy something new (except for aesthetics lol) when these sheets will keep getting better? Do not be afraid to try an interesting color! All clothes have dye in them and you wear those 24/7, why would you care about undyed sheets on your skin??Lastly, California design den claims that microfiber sheets contribute to microplastic pollution in our waterways. According to a 2017 study, nearly 35% of microplastic pollution is due to synthetic textiles (ISBN 978-2-8317-1827-9)!!!!! Nothing is indestructible in the wash. If you're concerned about microplastic pollution, please consider purchasing these cotton sheets instead of microfiber.If you really cannot afford cotton textile sheets, please do what makes sense for you. But these are a great option that aren't THAT much more expensive than microfiber sheets.

Loved the pillow cases! I am not a stickler for the finest of everything, but I do appreciate excellent quality fabric and construction. These did not disappoint. The fabric is thick, so not see through thin, have a nice weight to them, the sewing was very nice with even seams, no loose threads, etc. I also like that the size is 21x32" so that my pillow inserts are not right at the opening of the pillow case, as it would have been with a 20x30" pillow case. Right out of the package they are soft to the touch, but there was an insert that said wash first to make them softer. These pillow cases aren't going on pillows I sleep with, so I just put them on straight out of the package.These are perfect for my needs, and I am super pleased with them! Highly recommend!

I've bought dozens of products on Amazon and have never had an issue until now. How can this product have so many positive reviews? Once was decent quality but now they've switched fabrics? I just learned the hard way that 400 thread count doesn't really matter -- you can still end up with sheets that feel like sandpaper with fabric is so thin you can see through it. They seem to know their fabric is uncomfortable and rough. The inside packaging says "wash before use to unlock softness". Well guess what? Washing makes no difference at all. Very disappointed.

After purchasing a new split king adjustable bed from Amazon we needed new sheets, and these seem to fit the bill perfectly. When we initially received the sheets, we thought they were quite thin but used them anyway. For the first 3 months we were satisfied until we noticed the material on one fitted sheet was beginning to tear in the centre of the sheet. The material was just coming apart. As it was too late to return the product, we had a seamstress attempt repair. The sheet just started to part or tear in a different location. Examining the second set we purchased we found that the material was showing signs of stress and most likely will fail soon.We found the durability of this product to be deficient. Especially knowing we have sheets that have been in constant use for 20 plus years and still look new.We purchase, at least for us, a high volume of goods from Amazon and for the most part have been very satisfied with our purchases. I don’t believe we have ever written a negative review and view many of them with some scepticism. However as we have no means of contacting the seller or manufacturer directly our only recourse was to try and help others from making the same mistake of purchasing this product.

I am so very happy with these sheets! The price is right, the color is beautiful and true to the description, the textile is certified Oeko-tex which is always good, and they’re 100% cotton, NOT microfiber (which I can’t stand because I overheat.)I washed them and after a long washing then drying cycle, they’re just slightlywrinkled, which I don’t mind.They also fit very well over my 12 in. foam mattress and I did not have to fight with it to fit it on the corners.I am buying a second set right now.

While much better than dust-attracting, chintzy microfiber sheets and a fair deal for the money, these sheets are hardly top quality, lacking the cool crispness of Percale and other top cotton sets. However, washing these sheets in baking soda with white vinegar in the rinse cycle and drying in low heat or air drying smooths out the sheets after repeated washings. Treating these with care will yield good results.

I just received these yesterday. I washed them and after taking them out of the dryer I was so impressed with the feel and quality.I made my bed and being that it was a warm night it provided the opportunity to test them to see if I would feel too warm. It was a cool comfortable experience and had a perfect sleep in my new sheets!Thanks for this great product!Update: another customer said there was a discrepancy of where the sheets were made, India or China. According to the picture above they’re made in India. If it says China on the box, perhaps that’s where they were packaged.
