Let me start with the positives.  The fitted sheet has elastic all the way around. I am not worried that this sheet will come off the bed.  I don’t use the flat sheet, but would definitely not use it with this set. Now to the not so great.  I naively thought that the higher the thread count of a sheet the better they are. These sheets are not soft. They feel very roughscratchy. If you wanted to slide into bed, these may not be the sheets for you. They are made of a cotton blend. The thread count matters to a point, but anything over 400-500 thread count may have an “inflated” number. I definitely should have researched sheet thread counts before getting these.  They do have an anti microbial component to it but I’m not sure if that matters. If you like your sheets rough, get these.
