I thought these sheets would be great having a thread count of 600. My expectation was completely changed. I started out by washing the sheet set. It washed well without shrinking. However, I noticed several loose threads and I hadn't even used the sheets yet. I really like that the fitted sheet has elastic all around the sheet. I do not have any other sheets with the elastic all around and I figured this would help keep the fitted sheet in place. The main problem with these sheets is it is so uncomfortable to lay on. The material is scratchy on the skin. There was nothing that I liked about them after using them. I don't see myself getting any more of these sheets. They do not feel luxurious but feel cheap. The color I got is a light grey but they look more white to me than grey.
