I have two sets of these sheets and am about to purchase my third. I use flannel sheets year round, finding them just as cool in the summer, yet preferable to other fabrics. These sheets are the softest and most luxurious-feeling of any I have owned. I have read other reviews indicating a pilling problem with these sheets. Initially, I did encounter some pilling; however, after about three washings, the pilling ceased. They also have remained soft and seem to hold up better than other brands, even after repeated washings. These sheets are a great value!
I have been using these sheets for years. They are the only sheets that I put on my bed, summer and winter. I just bought a new set recently and will replace when it is time. They are very comfortable and warm.
