If you're into buying sheets every few months, these are great! I've bought three different sets hoping they would last, because let's face it, the price is good and they sure are soft. Every single time they rip and shred way too quickly. Buying a nice set of more expensive bed sheets will save you money in the long run.

I bought these in twin xl for my son to take to college. The sheets and the box they came in smell horrific. I am not overly sensitive to odors and I am typically the “throw it in the wash and it will be grand” person, so I don’t think I’m exaggerating. My son didn’t want to be in the same room as these sheets. I don’t see any comments to say this is expected so maybe something happened in transit. I don’t care too take a chance so I’ returning them.

I bought two sets of these sheets and both fell apart within 6 months! The fabric actually wore holes in it! It started with me observing thin areas that wore down to holes within a short time. I've bought other sheets from other companies and I never had this problem.I would not buy again.

I have been buying the 450 count Members Mark sheets for quite a while. I liked the crisp finish and that they didn’t look wrinkled. I have been needing new sheets but didn’t know about the HydroCotton. The labels on the old and new sheets are identical. The new HydroCotton sheets are not at all the same. They have a slick finish and came out of the dryer horribly wrinkled. Still look wrinkled after sleeping on them one night. Very disappointed. They do fit well but I will be looking elsewhere for crisp cotton sheets.

Bought Member's Mark sheets for years and was always extremely satisfied. These are not the same quality. The thread count is actually a little higher, probably because the sheets are no longer 100% cotton. Packaging indicates 100% hygrocotton (90% hollow thread plus 10% polyester)

Second set of these queen size sheets (Brown) that have actually shredded ---first pair I took back to Sam's but they would not stand by there product and said to deal with the manufacturer. Gave up on that after several attempts. Thought it was just a fluke and bought another set. Big mistake ---they have worn thru and shredded towards the bottom just like the other pair. When I mentioned this to several friends one other said the same thing had happened with her Members Mark sheets. Shame because I have bought these sheets for years but no more plus very disappointed in Sam's not being of any help.

These are great sheets. The washing instructions on many products (including these sheets) have changed to say "NO FABRIC SOFTENER" . Apparently, fabric softener causes the fabric to thin and disintegrate, which is why some people may complain about shredding. I had a very expensive sheet set and this happened to me. Your brain wants to add softener to make your bedding more cozy, but it is destroying your fabrics. We are now using wool dryer balls to control static and the sheets do come out soft. I hope this helps someone!

I can't believe how deluxe these sheets are -- and the cost is SO reasonable! They are so soft with a slight sateen finish to make them pretty and smooth. The price just can't be beat! I ordered 3 sets in different colors and opened, washed, and used two sets to see how I like them. Well, we LOVED them and didn't waste any time washing and using the third set on our guestroom bed. Lucky guests! I can't wait to hear how they like them. They're also generously sized -- not always the case with lower-cost sheets. You won't regret this purchase!

I really like the Member's Mark sheet sets. Easy to wash and dry, very little wrinkling and best of all I love the Flexi-Fit material on the fitted sheet. It makes for a smoother appearance and they don't come loose from the mattress. I first bought the Christy's for our 2nd bed and love those as well but like everything else we need to watch the pennies. I feel all sheets should be sold with Flexi-Fit material.

I have bought at least 6 twin sheet sets from Sam's over a period of 15 years. They are always used by kids/ teens and I don't have a backup set, so they are washed and replaced the very same day every time. For each and every set we've bought, the fitted sheet ends up ripping near the middle. I went back and checked previous purchases and the most recent set lasted right at 2 years. My kids aren't allowed to jump on their beds and they're all old enough to not want to any ways. The ripping is standard despite gender. (i.e. It isn't just the boys in my family.) It's tempting to look at the price and think it's a great deal, but you would be better off spending more and having sheets last longer. I'm looking elsewhere this time.
