Review on TRIBECA LIVING Egyptian Cotton 6 Piece by Brooke King

Revainrating 5 out of 5

ideal for Tempurpedic + adjustable platform

This light summer sheet made of 600 TC has a slight satin sheen. This Egyptian cotton reminds me of silk with its strength and lightness. Have you ever tried to rip a wet silk blouse? It looks like. In terms of tactile aspects, I don't find this cotton hot, scratchy or uncomfortable. I use Safeway/Albertson's/Von's lavender liquid fabric softener for cold washes/rinses and like all my clothes and linens I air dry or keep drying time to a minimum on low setting. Proper care of your fabrics is very important for both durability and comfort. As for the fit, maybe those who care about the elastic "staying in place" don't have the right mattress depth for these sheets? Mine don't, and besides, if they were on the sides but still on the mattress, I might not notice or care - I'm not picky, bored, or intrusive enough to look at the sides of the bed , sigh agony and running around, tucking sheets between two mattresses. And you? Maybe it's everyone else's concern? If it stays good but the center pieces aren't fully tucked in. Perhaps some of us sleep restlessly or do things other than snooze, ruffle the sheets and pull up, while other of us are much more comfortable lying still. Anyway, since I have a very thick Tempurpedic mattress and an adjustable base I've found other brands of sheets with deep pockets and 18" or even 21" deep pockets just don't stay on the corners of the mattress when I tuck my head and knees into them. cabin position. Trust me, lifting the mattress and ripping off the corners of the sheet while throwing the poor old cat against the wall is not recommended! Luckily, Tribeca Living sheets ALWAYS feature these extremely deep pockets, actually deeper than my mattress height, which does a good job of resolving corner bulges. Sure, they look a little baggy when the mattress is 100% flat, but I don't care. I have yet to find another brand that makes such a deep fitted sheet out of luxurious cotton AND at a price that I can afford in my retirement budget. Go go go Tribeca Living! I'm inventing a thing where the top sheet and comforters or duvets attach to the same corner so the comforters hold up better and the beds are easier to make each day - what a blessing that is.
