I did not see that the sheets needed ironing in catalog. The pillow cases and the top edge has to be ironed. The comfort is great and they are so cute.
I love the way these sheets fit my bed. Plenty of room all around on the top sheet and perfect fit on the bottom (my mattress is deep, but not overly deep -- probably 14-15"). After about three washes they are smooth, even crisp. These are my first Bean sheets and I will be buying more sets in the hope that all fit this beautifully.
I bought these sheets for my 15 year old's bed. When I washed them, the ticking color turned from green to brown in spots. I always wash my light colored sheets with bleach (if you have a teen boy, you understand) and have never had a problem with any other sheets. I have a front load washer with a bleach dispenser. There is a care tag that says non-chlorine bleach only but I never read it until after so it's my fault. Other than that, the sheets have a great feel and stay on the bed well even with a deep mattress. Just don't bleach them! I am only marking them down because I feel the color on white sheets should be bleach safe.
Love them! Only exception they are very deep, great for pillow top mattress set or down duvet thus tend to loosen. Very cozy feel, now purchased second set.
