Amazon Brand – Pinzon 300 Thread Count Organic Cotton Bed Sheet Set - Queen, White

I've been looking for light pink 100% cotton sheets for awhile and had bought some a few years ago on Amazon that turned out to be terrible and really cheap quality, but these sheets are really wonderful! I am very picky about my bedding and am always looking for good quality and value, but will pay more if I feel it's worth it. I was looking at PB sheets which are several hundred dollars when I came across these. I really do not like to sleep on synthetic materials and am so happy to have found these cotton sheets. I'm glad they are from India as I find Indian textiles to be of a high quality and good value and I can see that too be true in these sheets. The blush color is so pretty, with a slight peachy hue, but that works well with my bed and don't get me wrong, it's still very pink. They seem durable and well made, not the thickest sheets, but not thin or cheap either. As everyone else said, the elastic is extremely strong and thick and holds in place. All bottom sheets should be made this way! I was also surprised at how deep these are. I have a thick mattress topped by a thick featherbed and was able to completely cover all of it comfortably. I received the sheets yesterday, washed and dried them right away, and slept on them last night. They were soft and comfortable with that real cotton feel. I gave them 4 stars rather than 5 for comfort only because they're not the softest I've ever felt (and I do have high standards), but they ARE soft and I think they will soften even more with future washings. Other organic cotton sheets I've used softened more with time and I expect these will do the same. As others have mentioned, they do wrinkle after washing, but I didn't mind it. They smooth out pretty good on my bed and are appropriately casual, but if wrinkles would drive you crazy and you don't want to iron, then I'd look for something else. Otherwise, for these are an excellent choice, especially for the price. The pictures I shared were taken after one washing and during the day in a sunlit room.

First. The color is nothing short of perfect. A true blush. It's not peach and it's not pink. A genuine, authentic blush, and that is what I want and love. Now, to the sheets. They're wonderful. I love sleeping in them, they have that "organic feel" which is, um...no words for that? They just feel natural, soft and clean. I snuggle up under them and feel sheltered and loved. I know, I know, sounds sappy...must have something to do with the color, but I'm sold on these and I'm buying another set. Now...for my husband. He really likes them too, however, he says they sleep "VERY COOL" so, this could, depending on your choices, be a good thing or not so much. Since it's December as I write this, he thinks they should be more for warm weather I can't tell you exactly what he's feeling because I don't get any of it, but he tells me they feel "airy and lightweight" (hey, sounds good to me, but...you know how husbands can be, right?) So, all that said, he likes them, I love them. And one thing is certain. If you're searching for a true BLUSH sheet set, look no further. They're right here. And they feel really good too! ((*update May 2022 - These sheets are great! They've held up well - although given, I've not used them a LOT, we have several sets of sheets and I like to keep it "different" all the time) But they're great! The main reason I'm coming back this time is to tell you that they are BIG-as in sufficient. We have purchased a 3" mattress topper and that makes us have D-E-E-P pockets. With this cotton sheet, even though I wash, uh, warmer than I should, they hold up to the job better than most sheet sets I own. Makes for a fabulously made bed, and again, the fabric is great. I've switched to mostly bamboo and eucalyptus sheets, but these cotton ones still hold a spot at the top. And the PRICE? Whoa. I RECOMMEND THESE HIGHLY!

First: It was wonderful to open the packaging and not be overcome by the stink of the 'dressing' fabrics often have, especially cheaper products. Second: These washed up incredibly soft after the first wash (using Persil Sensitive Pro Clean detergent and Caldrea 'Sweet Pea' fabric softener). So, so far we have a great price, good softness, they're organic, nice thread-count and no smell - Hooray! I love a quality bargain. Oh, and these are made in India, not China if anyone cares? However, I deduct 1 star as I know most peoples distaste for ironing and despite getting these out the dryer as soon as the timer went off, they were SUPER wrinkled. I know this is the nature of 100% cotton sheets but these really are exceptionally bad. Having said that, for me that's not big deal considering the other pluses. Besides, I always spray (16oz of distilled water with 1tsp of fabric softener in a spray bottle) and smooth the sheets when I put them on the bed - gets the wrinkles out and adds a little extra scent. Added luxury in our house. Plus, I iron the pillowcases. Back to the sheet set: The thick elastic is great, keeps the sheets secure. Overall, I think they are a quality product.... if you can overlook or manage the wrinkles. Edit: I forgot to mention the packaging is lovely and the little bag with the velcro for storage is a wonderful idea - keeps them clean and smelling great between uses.

It isn’t easy to find 100% cotton XL twin sheets in stores - if there are any XL twin sets they all seem to be microfiber or cotton/poly blend - so I am pleased to have found these and am very happy with them. They are indeed 100% cotton and do have the organic certification tag as well. They are simultaneously soft and crisp - substantial and well made, not scratchy at all (peach-fuzz-like brushed cotton finish), and fit a dorm room XL twin mattress. The dove grey is a beautiful color and washed well (I’ve washed them twice). Comfortable to sleep in. They do wrinkle when slept on and come out of the dryer with wrinkles, but they are 100% cotton so I expected that and honestly don’t care - I’m not the type that irons sheets! They are soft enough that the wrinkles can easily be smoothed out when making the bed so it’s a non-issue for me.

Update again: After perhaps 5 years or so, these ended up with a hole in them, I guess from the washing machine. So, I'm here to buy another. I'm still happy with these. Update: After multiple washings the chemicals in these finally washed out and these are now exactly what I was looking for. I bought these over a year ago and so have been using them every day and they are still like new. When I wash them, I put them back on the bed the same day. If you like cotton sheets, these are worth persisting with and soaking in vinegar and baking soda to get the chemicals out. They are very soft. It seems people mistake slippery synthetics for softness. These are not thin, cheap sheets, but I do think they should put less chemicals in them. Original: I’m hoping these will improve after multiple washings, but after just one wash, I can’t sleep on them. The fabric is very stiff and doesn’t feel very breathable. My last sheets lasted 10 years and only now are pilling, and I’m having a hard time finding something similar. They were very inexpensive, thin, and cotton. They didn’t wrinkle like these, but they weren’t slippery like a high thread count cotton I bought or the polyester ones I ordered by accident a few years ago. If you have any suggestions please comment, because I can’t seem to find what I’m looking for. I know I want cotton and low thread count, but perhaps I’m missing something. Meanwhile, I’ll wash them a few more times and hope it helps. Btw, I’m severely chemically sensitive and after one wash I was fine with these—scent-wise. Mine did not come with a chemical smell as others mentioned, gratefully. Also, the band on elastic is the thickest I’ve ever seen on a fitted sheet! Not sure it matters though. It went on my standard Beauty Rest easily, and the overall fit of everything was perfect.

UPDATE- I am so sad to say that last night I found my toe getting caught on something. i looked down and realized that there are 3 long tares where threads have worn through. I loved these sheets, but disapointed they did not last longer. These are not "soft" they are crisp, which is exactly what I wanted. I like the feel of old school, crisp sheets, and have been looking for some for years. These meet the brief. I think I am a year in and there is zero "pilling". they still feel crisp and strong, they have not worn down in any spots. I generally only use the bottom sheet. The top sheet has probably only been washed once or twice, while the bottom sheet has probably been washed times. When you put them side by side, there is a significant color difference. So, if the color is important to you that may be an issue. For me I love these, and the price makes them an excellent value.

So many are discussing grandma's sheets in these reviews, then complaining that these sheets aren't Grandma's. Well, I AM grandma. I DID sleep under my grandma's sheets as a child in the south (your great great grandma?) The problem you have is that you didn't sleep under grandma's sheets while they were new. You slept under them after they were worn in. Percale starts as somewhat scratchy. After multiple washes, they begin to soften up. They become softer, then, even slippery. Totally heavenly. Good percale will last a long, long time. I have percale sheets that I bought 50 yrs. ago. Don't be fooled by the number of threads per square inch. There are only so many quality cotton threads that can be smashed into a square inch. To get more, you have to make the threads thinner (think...micro...fiber.) If the threads are thinner, the sheet becomes thinner, wimpier. Also, you lose the space between threads for the heat exchange that percale is known for (percale is cooler to sleep under.) A good quality cotton percale sheet will have about 200-300 threads/sq. in. - at most. And, if they ARE cotton, they WILL wrinkle, the same as your grandma's did. That's the nature of cotton. The wrinkles didn't appear to be so strong because she hung them on the clothes line and pulled out the wrinkles before they dried. I bet your grandma's sheets smelled like sunshine, right? By the way, your grandma's sheets were probably white and made from cotton grown in the southern U.S. You won't find grandma's sheets in queen size or king size - that's new to the second half of the 1900's. Which brings me to the reason I'm buying these queen size percale sheets. These sheets have all of those qualities you remember about your grandma's well worn sheets. Something additional these sheets have is a HUGE top sheet with deep cornered fitted sheet and large pillowcases. No longer do I have to buy a king set for my queen bed, then modify the bottom sheet, or buy a queen set and begin the nightly tug of war with my husband who wraps himself in the top sheet leaving me high and dry. Most queen top sheets in box stores are 92" x 102". They pull out at the bottom of today's thicker mattresses and barely cover the mattress on the sides. Compare the size of these top sheets. These sheets will soften after a few washes and uses. You have something Grandma didn't have - a washing machine/ dryer and choices of color. Don't give up on these awesome sheets. Buy them, use them, and wait for what happens with time - the cool, crisp, smooth to the point of slipperiness feeling you remember about Grandma's sheets. You'll be able to enjoy them for 50 yrs. or more. Soon, your grandchildren will fondly remember your percale sheets. :) Additional info: I've owned these sheets and I also bought the Pinzon 300 count percale but not organic. I bought them both at the same time and am wearing them equally. These sheets are becoming softer sooner than the others. The others ARE softening up, but these are softer, sooner. Just sayin'... if softness is a deal breaker for you...

We've been using these sheets for two months now and they are great! I purchased the California king size - two sets in navy blue and one set in natural. The navy is admittedly a bit grayer than I was expecting, but a nice color nonetheless. The natural sheets are a beautiful, creamy off-white color. If you are looking for low-maintenance, non-wrinkly sheets, these are NOT them. They wrinkly very easily, although I've discovered that taking them immediately out of the dryer and folding/putting them on the bed right away helps. They are extremely soft, quiet, and not clingy to clothes. Like other reviews have mentioned, these really do get softer with use and washing. We haven't had any problems with discoloration or weird smells. I love the elastic all the way around the bottom of the fitted sheet - they stay in place perfectly! Our mattress is 13-14" deep and the fitted sheet has at least an extra inch or two that tucks underneath all the way around. Overall these have been fantastic sheets and well worth the purchase!
