Wrinkle badly, do not sleep cool. Price is comparable to good quality cotton.
I purchased these sheets in September, and have been using them for 3 months now. They are rayon made from bamboo, so they have that slinky feeling, and they are not only heavy, but they do not breathe. They come out of the wash (cold water) and dryer (low) without wrinkles, but after you sleep on them, they will wrinkle dramatically- especially the pillow cases.As a person who sleeps hot, I was looking for the 'cool sleeping' and found it lacking. These feel cool to the touch; but they are rayon, which does not breathe so heat is trapped and honestly, I end up with not only a soggy pillow, but often across my back. I would really avoid using these sheets in conjunction with a memory foam mattress- that would be highly unpleasant. I used to wash cotton sheets weekly, these need to be washed twice weekly.Construction wise, they are okay; but not stellar. The fitted sheet has full elastic, rather than just corners, but it is barely 1/2 inch elastic and does not hold the sheets in place. The sheet rides up on my 16 inch mattress. The fitted sheet is already showing wear and strain points which at 3 months is pretty bad. The pillowcases have the extra flap to hide the pillow inside, but in mine, they weren't stitched down well and had to be mended. The flat sheet is not cut evenly, being nearly 5 inches longer on one side than the other. It too required mending where it looks like the industrial sewing machine ran out of thread, but kept going so the label corner and about 20 inches above it are stabbed by the sewing needle, but no thread was present. It didn't take much effort to sew the missing seam, but QA should have caught that.These are okay sheets, but the novelty of bamboo rayon doesn't make them better than 600 thread count cotton, which actually breathes.

It’s like sleeping in a pool of cool water
This is the first review I’ve ever left, and I’ve been buying from Amazon for years-so that should tell you something. I bought these sheets sight unseen and received them yesterday. I washed and slept on them last night.Mfirst thought was that they were the softest sheets I’d ever slept on. My next thought was that they were incredibly cool and felt amazing against my skin. As I continued to lay on them, I realized i felt like I was floating in water, and every time I moved my legs it felt like cool water against them (not that they were wet, but instead it reminded me of the silky, cool feeling of water against your body). I came online expressly to order another set (I got the green the first time and they’re simply gorgeous, even look like water), but realized I just had to leave a review.To the seller: well done! Your product made me leave my first review ever!Bottom line: buy these sheets now! If you do and disagree, post a review saying so...but I’m betting you won’t!

Life changing, seriously. Stop reading reviews and buy them
Warm when you need it cool and dry when you need it and oh soooooo soft and smooth. Even in Hilo Hawai'i I was cool and comfortable with these sheets. Warning, you will never buy any other sheets once you try these. They are incredible and trust me, I'm BEYOND picky.

Shrank in the wash.
Shrank after the second washing. Started as barely fitting a queen size 14" thick mattress, and now it no longer fits. It shrank by around 8 inches across the short axis.Also wore out considerably quicker than any of my other sheets.It's comfy though. Smooth. Not as smooth as higher thread-count sheets, but it still felt quite nice before it became unusable.

Never go back to cotton!
I got fed up with waking up in a puddle of sweat and needed to find sheets that help me minimize overheating at night. I was hesitant because of cost, the hubby told me to stop being cheap & just give them a go. This is the first bamboo set I have ever used and will Never use anything else. I can actually get through the entire night without waking once. They are soft and cool to the touch.

Keep washing, they keep getting softer
We love linen sheets. And if you do too you know how expensive the sheets can be. We took a chance and bought these thinking that for the price they likley won't match our other more expensive ones, but worst case well have an extra set of sheets. I was surprised! They are actually very nice quality fitted sheets. The deep pockets fit our large mattress plus 3" topper just fine. The sheets started out a bit "scratchy" but have softened up nicely with washing... now these are in our normal sheet rotation along with $300 sets, and we really don't notice a difference. So for half the cost, we have nice linen sheets that feel comparable to our more expensive brand ones.

Not sateen weave like their other bamboo products
I had to order this sheet set in Sea Grass after getting this brand's weighted bamboo sleep mask, shoulder wrap, and duvet cover, all in the Sea Grass color, and all having a beautiful sheen and silky feel due to the sateen weave - especially the cover, which is a thicker fabric than the other two items, and so rich and silky I run my hands over it multiple times per day. I thought these sheets would be the same fabric as the duvet cover, which, in addition to the beautiful color, is why I purchased them. But they don't have that silky, satiny feel - they're similar to a percale weave. :(I'll update this after I wash and sleep in them. Maybe they'll feel amazing after being washed. Right now, I'm much more impressed with Hotel Sheets Direct brand bamboo sheets, which ARE very silky.Update: They did soften significantly after washing, and they feel nice to sleep in for colder nights. They aren't as cooling as my sateen bamboo sheets from HSD - probably because this percale-like weave is a thicker fabric. But that also means they have a really nice weight and drape, so the combination of this top sheet plus my silk duvet with its bamboo cover and a bamboo blanket feels like a light weighted blanket - very cozy. I've added a star to my rating and I'm glad I kept them, though I won't be able to use them in warmer months. I would still LOVE to see YNM offer a sheet set made from the same fabric as their weighted blanket duvet covers!
