Mellanni’s microfiber sheets have a 1,800 thread count, and are resistant to fading, stains, shrinkage and wrinkles, according to the brand. The sheets are available in more than 40 colors — including beige, pink, green and brown — and you can purchase sheets with extra deep pockets if you have a thicker mattress.
This set from Bedsure is made of a material that’s treated with 3M Scotchgard, a protective coating, to keep you cool while you catch some zzz’s. Additionally, the sheets have a full elastic and deep pocket that can fit thick mattresses and toppers up to 21 inches while staying locked in place.
Made with a moisture-wicking microfiber material, these bestselling sheets seamlessly transition from season to season and have deep pockets, according to the brand. The set comes with a free lifetime warranty when purchased directly from Bed Linens and More and Amazon, the only authorized seller of the brand’s bedding products.
Stedman recommends these bed sheets for hot sleepers since they’re made of a poly-fiber material that’s hypoallergenic, breathable and moisture-wicking, according to the brand. NBC Select weekend editor Bethany Heitman is also a fan. The sheets are pill- and wrinkle-resistant, as well as antimicrobial, according to PeachSkinSheets. You can purchase them in 24 colors, such as eggplant, sage green, toasted marshmallow and more.
This set from Cozy Earth is also made from a viscose bamboo fabric, which the brand says is breathable and moisture-wicking, helping to keep you cool. The machine-washable set is available in five colors — brown, white, black, cream and gray — and works for regular and deep pocket mattresses, according to the product description.
Most moisture-wicking sheets are typically made of cooling materials — think cotton, linen and bamboo. This set is constructed with a specialty blend of polyester and a Coolmax microfiber that moves moisture away from skin to encourage evaporation and keep you cool, according to the brand.
Made from soft microfiber, this sheet set comes in 45 colors and seven sheet sizes. NBC Select editorial operations associate Jem Alabi is fond of this set for its cooling effects, durability and anti-wrinkle properties. The fitted sheet has 16-inch-deep pockets to provide an easy fit around most mattresses, plus the set is fade-resistant, according to CGK Unlimited.
With over 19,000 five-star reviews under its belt, this set of cotton sheets with a sateen finish comes well-vetted from Amazon customers. NBC Select updates editor Mili Godio, a self-described “hot sleeper” recommends giving the cooling sheets a try and calls them “super soft.” The 400-thread count sheets are certified Oeko-Tex Standard 100 and are made with a fade-proof and anti-pilling material, according to the brand. They also “barely wrinkle,” according to Godio.
NBC Select senior manager of community engagement Rosalie Sparaco recommends these sustainably sourced, hypoallergenic sheets. They’re made of a eucalyptus-derived lyocell material that resists pilling over time, according to the brand. Additionally, they have a deep 16-inch pocket, moisture-wicking properties and an Oeko-Tex Class 1 certification.
With cooler weather on the horizon, it’s the ideal time to add a set of flannel sheets to your bedding collection. Whether you’re looking for neutral hues — such as white or cream — or bold shades — think red and aqua — Bare Home’s bestselling set has plenty of variety with 17 color options. The hypoallergenic sheets are free of microplastics and have a tightly woven, moisture-wicking material, according to the brand.
If you’re prone to tossing and turning, you probably spend a fair amount of time readjusting your sheets when they detach from the corners of the bed. This set has an all-around elastic to solve this bedding conundrum, according to the brand. While washing the polyester sheets, the brand recommends steering clear of bleach to extend the life of the material.
Quality bed sheets don’t have to break your budget. Case in point? This bestselling set from Amazon Basics is less than $12 and has nearly 40,000 five-star reviews. Made of a brushed microfiber material, the machine-washable sheets resist shrinking and wrinkles in the washing machine and are made in an Oeko-Tex Standard 100 factory, according to the brand.
Available in 17 colors, this set of sheets is a solid bet if you’re seeking luxury for less. The sheets are made of an 1,800 thread count with soft, double-brushed microfiber and have deep pockets that are designed to fit mattresses up to 16 inches deep, according to the brand. When tossed in the washing machine, the hypoallergenic sheets can withstand fading, shrinking and wrinkles, the brand adds.
Sustainable living isn’t always easy, but you can take small steps to reduce your carbon footprint. Take this pair of sheets, for example. The OEKO-Tex certified set is made of 100% organic cotton with a breathable percale weave and comes in an eco-friendly, reusable bag. Thanks to the sheets’ deep pockets, they fit mattresses up to 15 inches, according to the brand.
A risk-free lifetime guarantee protecting customers from defects in materials and craftsmanship sets these sheets apart from the brand’s competitors. The fabric, viscose derived from bamboo, is designed to keep you cool as it wicks away moisture, according to the brand. The sheets, which are available in 27 colors, also hug mattresses up to 16 inches thanks to their elasticized border.
Since bed sheets can make or break your nighttime routine, finding the right set matters. Stedman recommends thinking about the following factors as you shop:
The type of material can be essential for different types of sleepers. For example, bedding sets made from bamboo, cotton or microfiber are best “if you are looking for sheets that have a cooling effect,” whereas flannel material can be a warmer option for colder nights, according to Stedman.
A high thread count is great, but it may not mean much if the materials and construction are subpar. The manner in which individual fibers are brought together can make sheets feel great regardless of the thread count, according to Stedman.
An Oeko-TEX certification ensures no harmful substances were involved in the manufacturing of a product. Stedman told us this certification is a bonus if you’re primarily concerned about textiles and how they impact the environment.
