I can't say enough about these sheets! Not every single person is going to be happy with certain products but for me there are more positive things to say about these sheets than negative. My bed is a queen, plush pillow top which measures 21" or 22" from top to bottom.....just the mattress. I also have a thick mattress protector on it.....which makes it even thicker. These sheets go over all of that with room to spare! I'm not practically breaking my wrists trying to get the corners on. They are so deep there is no struggling. In the past I could barely get extra deep pocket sheets to fit over just the mattress with a thinner protector on it. For some people who don't have mattresses that thick, they will think the pockets are too deep and the sheet is loose. You have to read the descriptions and reviews. Some extra deep pocket sheets are described as fitting only 15" or 18" mattresses. Now on to the other aspects of these sheets. The top sheet is plenty wide with at least 12" hanging down both sides and it's plenty long. I've had some that only had about 3" to tuck in at the bottom. These sheets have plenty to tuck in and get it nice and secure. The colors are great and don't fade. I know they say to wash them in cold......but it's either warm or hot for me! Washing in those temps hasn't changed the colors at all and they are always free of wrinkles.....unless you let them sit in the dryer for days or just ball them up to put them away. They do come out of the dryer wrinkle free. They are so, so soft ....right out of the package. No having to "break them in". I have had some that felt like I was sleeping on burlap! But not this brand! Yes, I do tend to get sweaty at night......some nights worse than others......but everyone does and I'm not going to blame it on the sheets! I don't feel any worse sleeping on these sheets than I did using 100% cotton ones. The quality is great. The two different edges that I've had.....the lace and the pleated....are attractive and have held up really well. Sure, once in a while I find a loose thread or a skipped stitch in the hem but having sewn a lot of things myself, I know that it's easy to have these things happen. They are nothing major. I might secure it a little with a needle and thread or just leave it alone. I have purchased 9 sets of these sheets.....some twin and some queen. My oldest ones are just over 2 years old and still look great. The prices are fantastic....even when they aren't marked down. I have paid twice the price for others and I actually think those might have been the ones that felt like burlap! I would definitely recommend these to someone who was looking to get new sheets. The positives outweigh the negatives for sure! 9 out of 9 have been great for me!
