It’s one of our all-time favorite sheet sets.

We love that the sheets drape beautifully with no stiffness, offering a lightweight yet substantial feel.
They feel soft, smooth, and cozy to the touch.
However, though theyre made with breathable cotton, they still feel cozy during colder months.

Outside of a few loose threads after the first wash, they maintained their quality.
In fact, they even grew softer with use.
After a year and a half of testing these sheets at home, we cant recommend them enough.

Between their thoughtful construction, design, and proven durability, we think these sheets are worth the investment.
The Threshold Performance Sheet Set impressed us with its 100 percent cotton construction and 400 thread count.
They have a smooth finish that makes slipping into bed a dream.
We were big fans of their airy construction.
While these sheets aren’t necessarily smooth to the touch, we love their crisp and cooling feel.
They breathe well, and weve had no issues overheating at night.
High-quality sheets, when washed on a gentle cycle and dried on low heat, can last forever.
We recommend replacing your sheet set, or at least the fitted sheet, every five to eight years.
However, we love them for their soft texture and mid-weight feel.
Even though these sheets have a double-brushed soft finish, their percale weave makes them very breathable.
However, weekly washes should still be done in a cold cycle to prevent shrinkage.
Bamboo materials are also breathable, similar to cotton, so this is another great set for hot sleepers.

The wide band at the top of our flat sheet wasn’t even that wrinkled after washing.
Unlike other heavier-weight linen sheets, these were soft and pliable out of their packaging.
They also continued to soften over the six months we used them.

We could feel the sheet bunching underneath us when lying in bed.
Sijos sheet set is one of the softest weve tried, with a sumptuous, silky texture.
However, we still strongly recommend this sheet set, and we love its reasonable price point.
Weve found bamboo options likeCozy Earths Bamboo Sheetsto be a silky-soft, reliable pick, offering standout temperature regulation.
And we love the breathability of linen, particularlyParachutes Linen Sheet Set.
Theyre also exceptionally breathable and comfortable to sleep with, making them a great all-season option.
And considering their reinforced seams and high-quality workmanship, they feel very durable.
After two years of testing, these sheets are still one of our favorite sets.
We also love the budget-friendlyCasaluna Washed Supima Percale Sheet Setfor anyone searching for soft and breathable sheets.
The crisp yet butteryBuffy Supima Cotton Sheet Setis durable and inviting.
While it’s not a total shock that L.L.
TheLands' End Comfy Super Soft Cotton Flannel Bed Sheet Setis a great runner-up to the L.L.
Bean set we love above.
Similarly, you’re free to shop other L.L.
Bean flannel sets, like theOrganic Flannel Sheets, that offer comparable coziness and winter-ready warmth.
(That adds up to over 27,500 hours' worth of sheet testing to date!)
Our bedding team is always testing new sheet designs and has overflowing linen closets to prove it.
Choosing between a sateen or percale weave boils down to your preferred texture, as we mentioned above.

While not included in our list, we have tested lots of polyester sheets that performed well.
Polyester can be great for those who sleep with children or pets and may want a particularly stain-resistant material.
We’ve tested plenty of high-thread-count sheets that did not stand up well to washing and regular use.

This will ensure that everything can easily be tucked in and stay in place.
The opposite is true for low-profile or slim mattresses.
