 Sheets seem very luxurious! September 30, 2008
JUSTLOOKIN' (Comanche, TX USA)
I purchased for a Christmas gift so the sheet set won't be opened until then but the feel is very smooth and soft. I think the recipients will be very happy with them!
 Okay for me, but with big caveats September 8, 2008

Before shopping for sheets, it is imperative to know the depth of your mattress. I have a pillowtop with a 2 inch foam pad on top of that, for a total of 14 inches. After researching every sheet set on Amazon, I settled on these because of the 510 thread count, sateen finish, the fitted sheet fitting an 18 inch mattress, and the price of $30.99. I subsequently purchased a second set when Amazon ran them the next week for $25.
What I didn't have access to until I received the sheets were the washing instructions, which are to (1) machine wash in cold water separately, and (2) tumble dry low. They were made in China.
Putting the sheets on the bed directly from the package, the fitted sheet definitely would fit an 18 inch deep mattress; there was room to spare to the point that I had to tuck in the bottom sheet. There was a nice, shiny sateen finish to the sheets. I was further impressed because the top sheet was ample, to the point that there was a 16 inch drape on each side, and around 5 to 6 inches to tuck in at the bottom. The pillow cases were very ample.
While I am able to wash in cold water, my dryer does not have a low setting (old Maytag, which will probably outlive me), only an air dry setting, which would never ever get these sheets dry. This presented a problem in that I had to use regular heat to dry the sheets. Naturally, I expected shrinkage. After the first wash and dry, the bottom sheet now just fits my 14 inch deep mattress. The top sheet lost length, probably between 3 and four inches, but it did not lose on the width. The pillow cases are a snugger, but not difficult, fit. This information is provided because if you intend to use these sheets for an 18 inch deep mattress, you need to follow the washing/dry instructions exactly to avoid shrinkage. Frankly, I'm not sure that the low drying heat called for wouldn't cause some shrinkage anyway.
I just finished washing and drying these sheets for the second time in order to determine whether more shrinkage would occur (a completely different set purchased from Overstock shrank over several washes). These did not. Regarding the sateen finish, however, it is gone, which, again, may be due to using regular heat for drying; yet, the sheets are soft, not scratchy (used a dryer sheet). This information is pointed out, again, to show that care instructions must be strictly followed to preserve the finish and the size of these sheets. Insofar as wrinkles, I take my sheets out immediately; these do not wrinkle too badly, but do not expect wrinkle free. The instructions say you can use a "medium heat" iron if you want, but I am not bothered by minor wrinkling.
 Wonderful sheets August 9, 2008

These are terrific, comfortable sheets at a great price. The bottom sheet fits tightly, yet is big enough to stretch across my extra deep mattress, and the top sheet has plenty of room at the ends to tuck in. The pillow cases feel nice and smooth under my face, too. All in all, a very nice set of sheets.
silky white August 6, 2008

I love these sheets. I previously ordered a 1000-thread-count set from Amazon, and they turned blue and flat after a few washes. These look much more silky, and HOPEFULLY they will last. I have not washed them, yet, but they are more clean and have a pearl sheen. Beautiful :)
Quen Sized Sheets July 28, 2008
Karima Bondi (Buffalo)
Very pleased. Used right from the package and found them to be very soft, not too stiff as is sometimes the case with higher thread count sheets. Have now laundered them twice and am happy to report that, when hung on a clothesline, they absorb that delicious fresh air smell. I have a set of 600 thread count sheets (I think because they are so tightly woven) that do NOT smell of the great outdoors when hung on the line, depriving me of one of my greatest pleasures.
Size-wise: They are a generous queen. Would work for deeper mattresses. Mine is a standard queen and I have to tuck excess under.
