I was delighted to find a set of split king sheets.  So kudos to Wayfair for having them. I ordered the plum.  First of all, the color is disappointing. It is much darker than it looks in the picture not particularly purple.  In less-than-bright light, you could, at first glance, think they are dark brown or off-black.

When I opened them, I was further disappointed by how they feel.  They aren't very soft.  In fact, they are a bit scratchy.  I hoped that washing them would soften them up, but it didn't help much (and the seams puckered).  

On the positive side, the fabric is thicker than you'd get with cheap sheets, and they are fully elasticized.      So they're not awful in every regard.

I've realized that buying for a split king is a very pricey proposition, so I'll probably keep these just because I'm not optimistic about finding something I like better anytime soon.
