This is our second set of these sheets. They are fabulous, soft and warm. We are not a fan of flannel sheets, these are not like flannel. They are very soft and do not pill. I can't wait to go to bed each night! For Maine winters these are just perfect. We keep our bedroom very cool, around 63, as we don't like a hot room. It is so nice to snuggle into these sheets. Do yourselves a favor and give them a try.
