M sheets are super wrinkled a few days after I put them on. Anyone else have this problem? I using the typical soap, fabric softener,etc. Anyone have a specific type, brand sheet set that doesn’t get wrinkled?
 

If your sheets look wrinkled, a few days after you put them on, the solution is simple: Sleep on the floor. Problem solved!
 

The bottom sheet is the one that should be tight....But it is very hard to keep wrinkles away....Unless you want to iron everyday....I change sheets once a week....unless we are sick with a cold....
We also take showers at night not the morning....I was brought up that way...I know people like to take a shower in the morning, but I think you worked or whatever all day and you are putting
your body on the sheets with all that you have done that day....Everyone has a different way to do things in their home....In the summer when I get out of the pool, I take a shower....
I don't not like bath's....Everyone has an opinion!!!
 
I use those 'sheet gripper' thingies that attach to the edge of the sheet to the sides of the mattress. Two on each side
of the mattress. Works well.

They aren't the elastic 'garter' type, but hard plastic with a channel.

If used properly, the bottom sheet gets pulled tight, eliminating wrinkles .. I've used these for a couple of decades.

They all get wrinkled to an extent. High thread count (300 to 400) Egyptian cotton percale keep a good shape. Egyptian cotton balls are longer than round, have longer thread fibers, last longer and feel smoother. That's why all the good hotels use it .

Make sure the label has the Trademark because other strains of cotton may be grown in Egypt, they're not the same plant.

Mine don’t get wrinkled but the sheets are 100% polyester in a high thread count. While I enjoy cotton very much, it absorbs moisture readily and wrinkles easily. These sheets are Costcos’s brand Tranquil Nights and feel semi silkish. They wash well, fit well and wear well. Sheets get changed once a week.
