I'm a guy so sheets are something I've never really thought or cared about. So I'm setting up my apartment in China and I needed to buy sheets. Since I can't be fucked to go out and pick and choose any design color or material, I tell my staff to go out and buy any set for me. She comes back with $100 usd sheets. Keep in mind this is China so everything is roughly 5x cheaper here than the rest of the world - plus she bought them from a direct factory. So you can assume these are like $500 USD anywhere else in the world. I was a little surprised at how expensive they were but I didn't give her a budget and since I didn't want to get them myself I couldn't blame her for my laziness. But now after a few weeks sleeping in them they are worth every penny . Fucking amazing!! I don't know anything about thread count or quality but damn, I'm never switching back.

Egyptian cotton for the win, IMO. 1000+ thread count sheets feel amazing to sleep in.

I always liked Jersey sheets; they feel so cozy.

Ive slept in high thread count sheets and I dont know why I just cant get used to them. I enjoy lower counts... I kinda like the rougher feel of sheets...

I don't know much about sheets - I bought mine for ~85 bucks at bed bath and beyond - but I do know this much: they're soo comfortable when they're clean. I only have one set of sheets, but I try to wash them about every two weeks. Just slipped into bed after doing laundry today and it's bliss
