Best Sheets of 2023: Top Picks From Our Bedding Experts

Saatva’s Organic Sateen Sheet Set is a top choice if you’re looking for bedding with high-end performance and rigorous standards for organic and sustainable production. The sheets are made from soft and breathable materials that most of our testers found comfortable.

How It Performed

The sateen weave makes each item smooth and buttery, similar to silk bedding. The sheets also feel cool to the touch, which our hot-sleeping testers loved. The sheets are made with 100% organic cotton that has gone through the certification process of the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS) to ensure organic sourcing. A Fair Trade certification also ensures the company promotes safe factory conditions and the economic betterment of workers. With this commitment to natural and ethical production, you can rest easy knowing the bedding is chemical-free and made without harm to workers or the environment.

What It’s Made of

The cotton has a 300 thread count and is a long-staple variety, which is known to last longer than short-staple cotton. You can choose between three neutral colors for an understated yet classic look. The sheets can be machine washed with cold water and tumble dried on low heat. Each set includes a flat sheet, fitted sheet, and one to two pillowcases, depending on the size of the set you choose. The pockets of the fitted sheet can accommodate mattresses up to 16 inches in height.

Saatva offers free shipping as well as a 45-day sleep trial to give you an opportunity to try out the sheets on your bed.

Sheets made from bamboo-derived fabrics are known for their exceptional cooling, and the Luxome Luxury Sheets are no exception. Every item earned high marks on our temperature control tests, and even our hot-sleeping testers felt comfortable.

How It Performed

The sheets drape closely to your body without trapping excess heat, so the set is suitable for year-round use. The bamboo-derived fabric is exceptionally soft, a quality further elevated with a sateen weave. Our testers with sensitive skin found that the fabric didn’t irritate or rub too harshly. The Luxome Luxury Sheet Set features a fitted sheet that can accommodate a mattress up to 17 inches thick. This range covers the vast majority of mattresses made today, including pillow-top hybrids and other models that require extra depth for a secure fit.

What It’s Made of

Each sheet and pillowcase in this collection is composed of viscose derived from bamboo in a lustrous sateen weave. The set is available in seven sizes, including a split king if you share an adjustable bed with a partner. You can also choose from 10 different colors, including neutrals and more offbeat options such as sage, sapphire, and terracotta. All items in the set are fully machine-washable. Wash in cold water on a gentle cycle, then line dry or tumble dry on low heat.

Affordable pricing and free standard shipping for orders in the contiguous U.S. make the Luxury Sheet Set a good pick if you have a limited budget. Returns and exchanges are allowed within 30 days of the delivery date, provided each component is clean and in like-new condition.

Silk & Snow is best known for affordably priced sleep products that perform at the same level as their more expensive competitors. Budget-conscious shoppers in the market for new bedding should consider Silk & Snow’s Percale Sheets, a set featuring items composed of natural cotton and constructed with a percale weave. This material is particularly well suited to hot sleepers because cotton is naturally breathable and the weave nicely enhances this quality by giving the fabric a crisp finish.

How It Performed

Our team was impressed with the quality and construction of these sheets, especially given the price-point. The percale weave enhances the cotton’s natural crispness, and those of us who dislike the close drape of sateen sheets found the set comfortable. We also expect these sheets to be a suitable option for hot sleepers. Exceptionally breathable cotton paired with a relatively low thread count makes the sheets lightweight and minimizes heat retention.

Everything in the set is fully machine-washable, so the Percale Sheets are easy to keep clean. Fit is a key consideration for shoppers. While the 15-inch pocket depth can accommodate many mattresses sold today, some high-profile mattress owners may need a fitted sheet with more reach.

What It’s Made of

All of the set’s components are composed of 100% cotton percale. Unlike silky-smooth sateen bedding, which is far more common, percale sheets have an initially crisp feel that gradually softens with use and cleaning. For best results, Silk & Snow recommends washing your sheets and pillowcases with like colors, and using wool dryer balls in lieu of fabric softener sheets.

You can choose from seven colors, all produced using natural dyes, as well as six sizes that correspond to standard mattress dimensions. Twin and twin XL sets come with a flat sheet, fitted sheet, and single pillowcase. Larger sets add a second pillowcase into the mix. In addition to the standard sheet set, you can also purchase a duvet cover and pillow sham set made from the same material.

In addition to relatively low pricing for the Percale Sheets, Silk & Snow offers free ground shipping throughout the contiguous U.S. and provincial Canada. Your purchase comes with a sleep trial that runs for 100 nights, and you’ll receive a 1-year manufacturer’s warranty if you decide to keep the set after the trial ends.

Every item in the Cozy Earth Bamboo Sheet Set has a luxuriously silky feel that our testers with sensitive skin thoroughly enjoyed. We recommend the Cozy Earth set if you are willing to spend a bit more on exceptionally soft and cooling sheets.

How It Performed

We highly recommend the sheet set if you tend to overheat or sweat while you sleep. The high-quality and exceptionally breathable bamboo-derived fabric also wicks moisture away from the body. Since Cozy Earth offers a split king option, the set is great if you and your partner own an adjustable bed. Thanks to the generous pocket depth, we also recommend the set if you own a pillow-top mattress or thick mattress topper that other standard-pocket sheets can’t accommodate.

What It’s Made of

Each pillowcase and sheet is made of viscose derived from bamboo that is naturally breathable. A silky-soft sateen weave allows the sheets to drape closely to your body, ensuring coziness and insulation from the cold when temperatures are low. You can also choose from five neutral color schemes. The fitted sheet has a pocket depth of 18 inches, so the set will be compatible with the vast majority of mattresses sold today. You can wash and dry each item in household machines for easy, convenient care.

All Bamboo Sheet Sets are shipped in a reusable tote bag. Cozy Earth offers a trial period spanning 100 nights, and those who keep their set also receive a 10-year manufacturer’s warranty against structural defects.

If cooling properties are a priority in your search for new sheets, the Hush Iced Cooling Sheet Set checks off a lot of boxes. The sheets are designed with hot sleepers in mind, with a lightweight fabric that helps keep you comfortable even in warmer seasons and hot climates.

How It Performed

The sheets have a silky composition that felt immediately cool to the touch when our testers tried them out in the lab. The breathable material is designed to wick moisture from your body, which is beneficial to sleepers who sweat a lot at night. Our team found the sheets soft and smooth, so we recommend them for sleepers who enjoy bedding with a buttery feel. The smoothness is also ideal for sleepers with sensitive skin, since it creates less friction than sheets with a rougher texture.

What It’s Made of

The Hush Iced Cooling Sheet Set is composed of 100% viscose derived from bamboo, with a sateen weave that allows the sheets to drape loosely against your body. You can choose between eight colors and five sizes — twin, twin XL, full, queen, and king sizes. Each set includes one fitted sheet, one top sheet, and two pillowcases. The fitted sheet has a pocket depth of 16 inches and should fit most mattresses on the market. One feature that stood out to our product experts were the elasticated bands on the corners of the fitted sheet, which helped keep the sheet taut and secure throughout the night.

The sheets are machine-washable in cold water, and you may tumble dry on low heat. Hush offers free shipping and a 30-night trial to try the sheets at home. The sheets also come with a 1-year warranty that guarantees against defects.

Boll & Branch produces a line of sheet sets in various patterns and designs, but the Signature Hemmed Sheets are one of the brand’s most popular collections. The sheets have a cool, silky feel and lightweight design that should appeal to sleepers who need bedding that minimizes heat retention.

How It Performed

With certification from the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), these sheets are verified organic, making them a good fit for shoppers who prefer eco-friendly bedding. A sateen weave gives the sheets a silky look and a soft hand feel that is designed to grow softer with time. This weave drapes closely to the body to insulate cozy warmth, but the cotton composition is also naturally breathable and lightweight.

What It’s Made of

The cotton is long-staple, a variety known for its high quality and durability, in a sateen weave. Most sets come with one flat sheet, one fitted sheet, and two pillowcases, though twin and twin XL sets include just one pillowcase and split king sets come with two fitted sheets. The fitted sheet has a pocket depth of 17 inches and should be compatible with most mattresses. Customers may pick from nine color options and seven sizes.

Boll & Branch offers free shipping and returns. Customers receive a 30-day trial with the purchase of their sheet set.

How It Performed

Our testers noted the sateen weave makes the sheets especially smooth and soft against the skin, and they have an elegant and lustrous look. Thanks to the silky feel, we recommend the sheet set for sleepers with sensitive skin. Our testers were able to glide across the sheets with no harsh rubbing or irritation. The pocket depth should fit most standard mattresses, but it may not fit if you own a high-profile pillow-top or a thick mattress topper.

What It’s Made of

The source material for the Luxe Sateen sheets is 100% long-staple cotton known for its natural durability. Its extended fibers are put to use with a sateen weave and a mid-range thread count of 480. As an added bonus, you can select from nine essential designs plus a number of limited-edition options. Those designs include both solid colors and more creative patterns.

How It Performed

If you prioritize eco-friendly products, this set should appeal to you. The material has received certification from the Global Organic Textile Standard (GOTS), indicating the bamboo is sustainably grown and harvested, while the OEKO-TEX Class 1 certification ensures each item has been tested for harmful chemicals and is considered safe for all ages.

Similar to silk bedding, which has become popular in recent years, the sateen weave creates a silky-smooth hand-feel that our testers with sensitive skin found comfortable. The smooth feel also helps reduce the sort of friction that can lead to frizz and breakage in hair.

The sheets and pillowcases feel lightweight, and the fabric wicks away moisture from your skin. Sweet Zzz offers five color palettes for the set, as well as six sizes that correspond to standard mattress dimensions.

Egyptian Cotton is an extra-long staple cotton variety used in some of the softest hotel-style sheets we’ve tested. The Pure Parima Yalda Sheet Set has been certified by the Cotton Egypt Association, ensuring the softness and durability this material is known for.

How It Performed

The sateen weave is known for a lustrous sheen and smooth feel that drapes closely to your body. This weave also suited our testers with sensitive skin, allowing them to glide across the sheets with no rubbing or irritation. Thanks to the combination of cotton’s breathability and insulation from the close drape of the sateen weave, we found the sheets to be a great choice for year-round use. You should not notice significant temperature spikes or drops at night.

What It’s Made of

Pure Parima offers a generous color range for the sheet set. You can choose between 10 options, ranging from neutrals to blush pink and navy blue. Seven sizes are available – twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, California king, and split king. Twin and twin XL sizes come with one pillowcase, and larger sizes include two. The split king size also includes an extra fitted sheet. All fitted sheets can fit a mattress up to 18 inches thick.

The Brooklyn Bedding Deep Pocket Bamboo Cotton Sheets have a lightweight feel made from a mix of breathable fibers that should prevent you from running too hot or too cold. The sheets are also perfect for thicker beds, due to the deep-pocketed fitted sheet.

How It Performed

We test all sheet sets on the same mattress to ensure consistency. Hot sleepers on our team loved the sheet set’s cool feel, which excelled in our temperature control tests. Our heat guns detected minimal heat buildup on the surface, so these sheets should feel comfortable even during warmer months. The fabric also has a slightly silky feel that our testers with sensitive skin enjoyed.

What It’s Made of

The sheets are made with a blend of bamboo-derived rayon and cotton. You can choose between three neutral colors: khaki, silver, and white.

The Buffy Breeze Sheet Set is composed of Tencel, a material that is known for its softness and breathability. The sateen weave gives the sheets a buttery quality that benefits sleepers who prioritize comfortable, lightweight bedding.

How It Performed

The sheets earned high marks during our temperature neutrality tests, since Tencel is breathable and offers natural cooling properties. The material is also known for wicking away moisture, which may appeal to sleepers who sweat a lot at night. While the sateen weave results in a close drape against the body, which can sometimes trap heat, we found the lightweight quality still kept the sheets quite cool. We recommend the sheets for sleepers with sensitive skin, since the smooth quality is less abrasive.  

What It’s Made of

The Buffy Breeze Sheets are composed entirely of Tencel, which is derived from eucalyptus fibers. You can choose from over a dozen colors and stripe patterns, and the set is available in six standard sizes. Each set comes with a top sheet, fitted sheet, and two pillowcases. The fitted sheets are 15 inches deep. This is compatible with most mattresses on the market, but you may need a deeper fitted sheet if you own a particularly thick mattress. You may machine-wash these sheets in cold water and tumble dry on a low heat setting.
