Sleep Country Canada has bamboo sheets that feel great and have a great price, if you like triple digits. $200+, on sale.

I think you have Sleep Country in the US too. Does anyone have these sheets and are they worth the money? Saw some microfibre ones for $35 in another store and heard good things about them.

It’s all about the hand of material and I must say the bamboo felt wonderful.

Egyptian cotton are nice but heavy. Every time I washed them, they shrank until the the queen size was too tight on a full size bed.

It’s too bad the sheets are sold as a set. I prefer a double-size top sheet on a queen size bed.

This is the first I heard of bamboo sheets and they don't sound appealing. Nor does the price. I had gotten a set of sheets, high thread count which was a big deal back then. i'm not sure if they are Egyptian cotton but I hate those sheets and hardly ever use them. They stay wrinkled and I didn't see how they slept any better than my other sheets.
 
For $200.00, they'd have to do a lot more than cover me............
 

The sheets we use I made myself from Actil fabric which was the best money could buy
many years ago .
Im not ashamed to say I bought the unmistakeable Actil fabric in a charity shop about 10 years ago $18 for 20 mtrs it was still in a big cardboard roll ( brand new ) so I made two fitted and 2 flat sheets that will see me out unlike the the low quality stuff from China .

Actil made the fabric and the linen including bedspreads / sheets / towels
Their factory was in the city of Adelaide South Australia.

I’ve tried the 1000 thread count and they wrinkle up like a old dish rag after the first wash

I have microfiber sheets and love them. Very soft and get softer with each wash. They come out of the dryer wrinkle free. I have approx six sets bought at different times and they are all good.

Yes, I have some of these too. I bought them at Costco about 6 mos ago, and I love them.
I think I paid $29.99.

I'd like to go back and get some more.
 
I’m using a set of twin sheets that I snagged from the clearance shelf at Walmart for $6.00 a few years ago.

I’m not good at rotating the sheets. I strip the bed on laundry day and remake it when they are dry.

When I was a kid we had summer sheets and flannel sheets for winter. Now that I have central heat the fuzzy flannel sheets are too hot!
 
I know lots of people who have Bamboo sheets..they're quite popular here, although I don't have them.I keep thinking I should just try a set of pillowcases...before I decide whether the sheets are value for money..

However there is a difference in quality between certain Bamboo sheets, so do a little research before shelling out a ton of money....

I bought a set of 1200 count sheets years ago, thinking they'd be the epitome of luxury. I have no idea how cloth can be "hard" but sleeping on those things was like sleeping on a board. They "crinkled" all night. I washed them several times thinking that would help, but nooooooooo.

They're stored in a closet, awaiting unwanted guests.
