These sheets are so-o-o soft they are wonderful.  I followed the care instructions to wash in plain water with 1cup white vinegar for the first time and WOW.  So much lint came off, the dryer lint filter was full of fluffy fiber that surely would have pilled later, and the sheets were mega-soft.  Love, love, love them.  My husband doesn't ever want to get up. These sheets have improved the quality of our sleep. HIGHLY RECOMMEND.
