Horizons 300-Thread-Count Cotton Sheet Set

When I opened the package, the sheets had somewhat of a funky smell from the dye used, so you really need to wash these sheets before using them. Once they were washed, the smell went away. The sheets look really nice, the blue I received is more of a medium blue, not the indigo-ish blue that is indicated by the picture, so be aware of that if you are trying to color match them with something else in your bedroom ensemble. The kind of tie-dye cloud like pattern is unique, a needed change from solid colors and stripes, they are so boring! The sheets have a softer feel than most sheets I have used, I can only assume that this is due to the dyeing process that most likely weakens the cotton fibers, which is the only reason I gave them 4 stars instead of 5. These sheets have to washed with cold water on the gentle cycle, which is not something I'm not used to doing with sheets. I always used HOT water, on the normal cycle and used bleach if the fabric allowed. I figured that kills most bacteria and who knows what that lingers in the bedding. This is why I question the durability. If the dyeing weakens the fibers, will they start to wear far sooner than a plain white sheet that I can bleach and wash in hot water? Only time will tell. But for $39.99 for a king size set with two king size pillow cases, a fitted sheet, and a flat sheet, you can't go wrong.

UPDATE In the winter, I find the sheets to be awfully clingy, probably due to the amount of static in the air, I had to take them off my bed, they stuck to my spread and were highly annoying. I won't be putting the sheets on until the summer when the humidity rises. I'm beginning to realize you get what you pay for, next time I would spend a little more and get something better. The star count comes down one.

The color is absolutely gorgeous and the fabric feels wonderful. However, I would prefer deeper pockets for a better fit. My CK mattress is only about twelve inches high, and I had to pull and stretch for coverage, even though the description states "15 inch pocket." Update: The fabric peels and wrinkles dreadfully, detracting from the attractiveness.

I bought a set for my daughter's college bed, and we loved them at first, but I'm replacing them just over a year later because they are pilling and not very comfortable or nice. Good quality sheets should hold up far longer.

I returned these after only two uses. The bottom sheet pilled horribly after only two uses. The cotton felt nice enough out of the package and the sheets fit the XL Twin mattress with plenty of room but the wear of the cotton is horrible. I bought a different set of sheets from a different manufacturer on Amazon and they are perfect and aren't pilling. Don't waste your money on these.

I received this yesterday and have already arranged to return it. The "seafoam" color is a delightful sky blue on the website but turned out to be "forest green" in person -more like bile green, not at all like the picture. The fabric is coarse and seems cheap. The pattern is printed with a coarse 4-color screen that also looks cheap.
