I loved this fitted sheet it hugged the bed and our fitted sheet always stayed put. So I was devastated after less than a year to take them out of the drier and found a big shredded hole. I would have purchased these sheets over and over but sheets should not shred this quickly if at all.

I have bought these 3 different times and each time I’ve had to return them because the fitted sheets get holes in them. They just don’t last. I kept buying because I like the ash color. I’m done giving them another chance. Sam’s has been good about returning them.

Of all the things I've bought that I thought warranted a review, I never thought bed sheets would be among them. But alas, I was wrong. These sheets are exceptional. The first thing I liked when I opened the sheets to wash them (something I always do with new linens or clothing) was that the edges of the fitted sheet have labels on them to tell you whether it's the side or the end of the sheet. What a superb idea! Why didn't someone think of that a long time ago? The second thing I liked was that the fabric is high-quality and somewhat thicker than average, with no runs or defects. The third thing I liked was that the craftsmanship is superb. The hems are even, the stitches neat and secure, and so forth. Fourthly, these sheets actually stay put on the bed. Ever since I bought a mattress topper, my old fitted sheets have been slipping off the bed at night, sneakily wrapping themselves around my neck to choke me, and then tripping me when I get out of the bed just to make sure I'm still dead. These sheets, on the other hand, stay on the bed. The label says something about the system that holds the fitted sheet to the bed being patented. I honestly can't tell what the difference is. But however they do it, it works. The fitted sheet stays put. The top sheet also hasn't pulled out from under the mattress. I don't know whether that's some top-secret patented technology, too. I only know that the sheets stay put. Finally, these sheets are comfortable. I was a bit hesitant to buy 450-thread sheets; but they were on sale in-club: and being your basic tightwad, I find it hard to walk past a good sale. I figured I could always return them if I didn't like them. But that won't be necessary. They're very comfortable sheets. I'll definitely be ordering more of these for the rest of the beds in the house. Richard

Holy cow do they stink! 100% cotton but I’ve washed them three times now, right out of the bag, haven’t even put them on the bed yet. Cold water, hot water, unscented soap, scented soap, baking soda... Ugh! They smell like old vinyl inflatable swimming pool floats. The fabric seems nice and smooth, maybe I’ll actually get to use them someday when this smell goes away! :(

Just bought these and washed for first time. While folding I noticed two tears on the fitted sheet. Not sure if they were packaged that way or if it occurred during wash. They were washed on gentle, cold cycle! Packed them up and will be returning. After reading the comments I think I’ll have to go with another brand. Seems like a lot of people are having issues with this.

I bought the Cal Sheets in Calking Ash. They feel very comfortable and I love the color. I had them shipped to my house for free, put them in the wash and they fit the bed just right. I will be watching them to go on sell again to purchase a couple extra sets!

I purchased these based on positive reviews. The top sheet is more ivory than white, but even worse is that the sheets have a horrible odor. I washed in warm water and smell remains. Unsure if I should exchange for another set or get refund. Really wanted to like them.

I'm insanely picky about sheets--must be silky soft, cool, not at all scratchy or stiff. And must be the perfect color (I love brown sheets, these are the color of chocolate milk.) Bought these as a last resort because our old sheet set wore through and I couldn't find a replacement set that wasn't $300+. They ended up being the best sheets I've ever had! Price is great, they fit an extra deep king mattress wonderfully, and I love the tags that help you orient where the top/bottom/sides go. Buying a backup set before Sam's discontinues them! My daughter has a twin size set she loves as well!

Purchased over 6 months ago and use this set only. I'm washing them at least once a week, sometimes more, and they are NOT pilling (getting bumps and rough) from wash and wear. Can't be happier. The fitted sheet has sewn on sides with the elastic on that - works great on a deeper mattress 16" and it doesn't pop off . First set I've had in a long time that doesn't wear fast and doesn't pull off the mattress...completely satisfied.

My husband drove an hour to get a new set of sheets for me. As soon as we put the fitted sheet on we saw a rip right in the top. You don’t expect to spend money on a ruined item. There is no time to drive an hour back to the store so the sheets will have to stay on the bed for the time being.
