I was very dissatisfied with these sheets.  First, they do not fit my CA King the way they are cut.  They seem to be irregulars.  Yes they are thick but not at all soft, quite scratchy actually.  The print is not a dye woven with the fabric but instead stamped or printed on top adding to the discomfort of these.  I do not recommend them and had I tried them on before washing I would have returned them.
