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! :(

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.

I bought these sheets about a year ago and don't use them very often. They probably have not been washed more than 10 times. The thread on both of the side seams has unraveled and now these sheets need to be re-sewn. Color has faded. The texture is soft and they do feel nice. However, these are the most poorly made sheets that I have ever purchased.

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!

I just read all the reviews and felt I had to answer. I have (over the years) bought high end sheets from several different companies and must say that these are the best! My husband and I hate when the bottom sheet becomes bunched up and wrinkly, causing restless sleeps. These sheets might be a tiny bit stiffer than some of the Egyptian cotton sheets but for the price and convenience, they win in our book!! We sleep with the temp cooler at night plus the ceiling fan on so we have not experienced them being hotter. The stretchy material at the top and bottom is a godsend.

These are the best sheets I’ve ever had at any price! They are the first sheets that I’ve ever owed that stay put, and wash up great time and time again! We just bought a split king adjustable bed, and I’m so disappointed that they don’t come in Twin XL. I’ve tried several others, and I’ve found that using two queen fitted sheets of these sheets tucked snuggly under each mattress still stays put better than any other sheet!

I purchased these sheets in King size about 6 months ago. In the beginning they were a bit scratchy but that has lessened with repeated laundering. My only complaint is that the ash color is more like chocolate brown. The color on Sam's website is deceiving.

I bought a set about 2 years ago and was skeptical because the price was half what my other sheets cost. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality, fit and feel of these sheets. Since then, I have given away every set of pricey sheets we had and now own 3 sets of these. They wash great and feel so nice. They don’t wrinkle and the bottom sheet has very deep pockets with good elastic that stays put. Our mattress is 12” thick and we have a 3” cool gel topper - the bottom sheet covers perfectly and never pops off. Tomorrow I am buying a set for my daughter who just got a new mattress. I know she will love them!

I washed this new set following the instructions, trying to put the fitted sheet on my bed, it’s ripped! Don’t waste your time, I thought that one of my other sets may have been ripped due to wear and tear but not any more-the quality stinks! I want my money back for both!
