Have been looking for great flannel sheets for years and had not been able to find any that I really loved until I found these. I hesitated at first due to the price but they certainly prove the old saying 'you get what you pay for'! I bought them in the pale moss color and just love them. No pilling in the wash. The size is great with plenty of length to tuck in all around the mattress. They are so soft and warm - made for a wonderful nights sleep. May have to buy another set so I don't have to go without them on laundry day!
When I unwrapped my new premium flannel sheet set, I was disappointed because the flannel wasn't anywhere near as thick and luxurious as the flannel sheets I had purchased from Bean about 20 years ago. This set is nice; I will keep it and use these sheets for years, but in no way can they compete with the wonderful sets I have purchased from Bean in previous years.
Last year I bought the flat and fitted sheets in white. I am in love with these sheets. They are soft, warm, comfortable and just the right weight. I even kept them on during the Summer while the air conditioning was on. They have been washed several times and do not pile. I found them expensive but certainly don't regret buying them. I highly recommend them.
I also bought the Heritage Chamois Flannel sheets. They are also great sheets, and do not pile either. The chamois sheets are heavier weight and personally I prefer the Premium Supima sheets. Would not hesitate to buy another set.
I have been buying sheets for many years with disappointing results. My husband suggested I buy the LL Bean sheets that were rated so highly. I have never bought such pricey bedding, but, as he said, you're wasting more money buying sheets that you cannot use because of shrinkage, why not give them a try. I bought the Botanical floral and the pink sheet sets and matching pillow cases. These sheets are spectacular!! We both love them, they fit our queen sized mattress after washing and drying. No more tugging at the corners to try to make them fit.They are so soft, and you don't have those wrinkles at the top where you fold it down, that other sheets have. There is plenty of room for the top sheet to hang down on the sides,top and bottom, I wish I had listened to hubby long ago. I will never buy any other sheets. I am so glad my "looking for nice sheets" days are over. Buy them, do not hesitate, you will not be sorry!!!!!!!
