Divatex Home Fashions Royal Opulence Satin Sheet Set

The bottom sheet has an elastic band ALL THE WAY AROUND! If you have an 8 inch tall mattress this will tuck under all the way around not just the head, foot or corners. I am using on a hard side Cal King waterbed and am so happy because they stay on great.

Thin, tight weave, strong, satiny smooth, durable and they don't get runs or snags when hit with a sharp toenail. I have purchased other satin sheets here and on Ebay that were like a rough nylon stocking material so thin you could see right through them. These sheets are not like that, they are perfect and hold up great month after month. Slick and smooth, others said they are too slipperythats a good thing people!

I have xtra heavy satin sheets that cost $250 but do not have the elastic all the way around. They are quality and I like them but with the fantastic elastic I prefer this sheet!

Other Reviews 'not cotton' um, look up the definition of Satin. 'Stained bed' the color came off? I dunno. I have Red and Gold, the color does not rub off or leach out during washing.

Please mark this review as helpful because no one else was mentioning the bottom elastic when I was reading reviews or I would have purchased a few more. These work so well on our waterbed.

UPDATE: It has been over a year since my original review. These hold up wash after wash. They just went on sale for $24.99 so I am here to get more. I love the Red and Gold and have used them constantly for 18 monthsthey are still perfect with even the elastic holding up. I do always dry them on a low heat tumble. I am very satisfied and reccomend these sheets to anyone and especially waterbed users.

I mean, totally. It's hot down here in south Texas, and these have a nice cooling effect. They feel great, fit like they're supposed to; my hands are not the color of the sheets, nor is my mattress pad; and if I slip and slide, it's 'cause it's satin and I'm having a good time on it. Go with the flow, I say. Try looking for an answer, rather than looking for a problem.

Shall I cover the major issues? Let me just say to start, these sheets are great for the price.... and have you priced satin sheets at, say, Macy's lately? But as satin bedding has grown increasingly popular, Macy's has lowered prices, too.

Hey folks, if they don't fit, consider what size you're paying for and don't try to save a couple of bucks by trying to stretch a sheet that's too small. Twin sheets don't fit full mattresses very well. I have a full-size bed. But the mattress is thick (those cushion tops add up, you know), plus I have a fairly thick mattress pad. So, I buy queen size sheets. It's a lot easier on the back, besides the mattress.

Of course, it's polyester, and there's nothing "fake" about that. Most satin we see today is polyester. Silk threads made from silk worms are really not going to be found in this price range. Cotton just ain't gonna work. You see, satin is a type of weave, not a source for thread.

If you slide, there's a reason behind that. Though there are several weave methods for satin, most (and those we can expect to find) are made to be slippery, shiny, whathaveyou. Think of it perhaps as a "poor man's silk," silk also being known in typical forms for its smoothness, thus slipperiness. This is what provides the cool effect and that "nice" feel you enjoy, besides the interesting additions to your playtime. And, yes, your blanket may also slide: that's life in your new satin world of royalty. I wonder if Velcro would help ;)? Say, I wonder if this slippery quality might account for some of the corners "sliding" loose?

I haven't had it happen; but I suppose "runs" are possible, just as in nylon stockings. Try taking your jewelry and shoes off before climbing into bed. If your skin is causing the runs, see a dermatologist. Ever try satin or silk pajamas or nightshirt? They feel good, too, and shouldn't run your satin sheets.

Unless the company's color runs are different, I don't understand some of the color criticisms. I have gold (it's not yellow at all); red, which is bright, rich and vibrant all at once; and black, which is about the blackest black I've seen. At least these three colors are gorgeous to my Monet-loving mind.

The price for these varies all over the place, you can keep an eye on it. It even varies greatly among colors. If you bought them for ten bucks, in which decade was that? Actually, they've been pretty darn close to that here lately. And lemme tellya, that's an incredible bargain. Best department store (no Amazon then) price

Now, I'm sure there have been legitimate problems with these sheets, as there surely will be with anything on this earth. But frankly, some reviews I've read indicate that the purchasers had no idea what satin is. In those cases, read about satin in Wikipedia and feel your sheets thoroughly and chalk this up to education and experience. Remember this: "satin" is a weave designed to be this way, at least in sheets. These sheets are not woven cotton, they are not flannel, they are not wool, they probably are closest in texture to the typical silks we see of any material or weave technique (I say it this way because silk also may have a "soft" weave that is more like a soft wool).

In the case of a couple of reviews, I think somebody had gotten out of the bed on the wrong side.

Does this long speech help anybody with your decision?

For a couple of months I had a much higher priced set of sheets in my wish list, but when I went to order those, they were out of stock. These sheets were listed as one of my "personalized recommendations." When I saw the price, I was very skeptical, but then again, at that price, I thought what do I have to lose? I was a little nervous after reading some of the negative reviews, especially the ones about the sheets staining the mattress.

When I took the sheets out of the package, I inspected them, and expected to find problems, such a poor sewing, rough texture, etc. I was happy to see they are made well, and are very soft and silky. They fit my mattress perfectly, and I have one with a thick pillow-top, so I was a little worried. The sheets are not as slippery as some described. They still have not stained my mattress, either.

The sheets I owned prior to these cost about 10 times more than these, and honestly, I notice no difference. These sheets are great. They look good, they feel good, and you cannot beat the price.

The sheets have stained my mattress cover and other colored pillowcases. Very disapointing. They are "luxurious" though, for fake satin. There are even black handprints on my wall (happened while changing the sheets). Ridiculous. Even after washing them twice they still stain. But it's too late now.

These are the first satin sheets I've ever used, so I don't know how they compare to other brands. I liked them. They are comfortable to sleep in. The only problem I had was that they stained the mattress cover. Not a huge problem since no one will ever see it, but it was disappointing.
