Tried these sheets because they were recommended on an unbiased consumer website, and are worth every penny! These sheets feel smooth and cool to the touch and are perfect for summer sleeping. Thanks LLB!
Sadly, the Vintage Green was much more green than the shade on-line,which seemed a soft aqua. BTW-- that aqua would be a good addition to the range of colors.
Though there were less than positive reviews about these sheets, I read a convincing review and tried them. I absolutely LOVE these sheets! They are smooth, crisp and cool, and reminds me of my bedding my mom and grandmother used! I'm slowly replacing my other pricey sheets that just do not compare to the these LL Bean quality! Thank you for offering top quality percale sheets!
This has been the only time I've ever purchased anything from LLB that I've been dissatisfied with. When the top sheet "ripped" apart at the top hem for about 5 or 6 inches a few months ago, I thought probably it was due to too much tugging or pulling. Although I loved the pattern, I decided to buy another solid colored sheet that would "go" with the bottom sheet, which I did. However, just last weekend I discovered that the bottom sheet had worn through about a 6" long area near the bottom of the sheet. It hadn't ripped, it was just worn through. I received the replacement bottom sheet this week and am hopeful that this set will last longer.
