I love the flannel sheets. They are the softest sheets I have slept in for a very long time. Since the weather has turned cool, my husband and I have enjoyed sleeping on the sheets; very cozy.
I have several sets of these L.L. Bean Flannel Sheets and I love them all! It doesn't matter how long I have had them, or how many times they have been washed and dried, they always have that new soft feeling. There is nothing quite as nice as crawling into a bed made with L.L. Bean Flannel Sheets on a cold winter's night. My only complaint with them would be that after a while they do begin to have some piling, but only where your feet are, and if you wash your sheets on a regular (weekly or bi-weekly) basis, then even that really isn't a problem. If you're looking for a warm set of sheets that are going to last you for many years, then I would pay a little more and go with a set from Bean's...you won't be sorry!
