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.

Yea, that used to mean nothing to me , but I'm now a full believer!

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

yeah 500 is kind of the minimum. Jersey sheets are OK sometimes.
