Received these flannel sheets December 2nd, 2022 and first time sleeping on them was December 8th, 2022.  Out of the package they were very soft but after washing them they were even softer and felt more plush to the touch.  Nice heavy weight and the first night sleep on them was great....comfortable, warm and so nice to the touch.  I have a 12" Temperpedic mattress and the top sheet draped 1" - 2" past the mattress!  Never had a top sheet of any kind with that much coverage.  Would recommend this sheet set.
