Renaissance sheets - 800 people wrong? I saw these sheets and immediately thought these are the perfect sheets to order 808 reviews with an average of 4 stars. Must be great sheets. Then I start reading the latest reviews and they pill, scratchy, don't fit. How can that be? I bought some sheets from Amazon a few months ago (which are no longer carried) that did pill in 2 months time. So I'm on the quest for great sheets again wo spending $200 to $300 for sheets.

This is an old question with somewhat dated responses so I thought I would comment since I purchased the king in white 2 years ago and no want the gold. The sheets are crisp - almost hotel quality and feel and do not pill, thin out or bunch. I follow the simple care instructions and have had great luck with this brand. I have these exact same sheets in white and beige (ivory).

Mine started out with the flat sheet being weirdly sized (longer than normal but too narrow for my queen-size bed) and the fitted was perfect (deep enough for my feather topper), however the bottom shrunk so bad that I can no longer use. The sheets were washed in cold water, and dried 10 min. to remove wrinkles, then finished line-dried. The Renaissance sheets are my worst Amazon purchase.

How has your luck been with these new sheets so far? I have bought two pairs of these in the past and now I just bought the ivory set as it is back in stock. Now I am a bit concerned as to what people are saying as well!

I did not buy these. I bought sheets from O stock for 600 Thread Count Embroidered Sheet Set with Bonus Pillowcases. I love those.

personally - I prefer 400-500 thread count - I haven't tried 1,000 but I have tried 800 - I didn't like them - it was a while back, I don't remember if too rough or too slick - but I gave to Goodwill and pulled out my lower thread count sheets

Focus on thread count. This is the key factor with bed sheets in determining not only the thickness but the overall quality. The higher the thread count, the better. Personally, I prefer egyptian cotton over the standard cotton that we are used to in fabrics. It helps keep your body cooler when you sleep and is noticeably softer to the touch. With this particular item, it turned out to be 100% polyester and they are clearly not 1500 thread count. I wouldn't buy these sheets again if for no other reason than they were falsely advertised. Nonetheless, the sheets have already started showing noticeable signs poor quality. Focus on thread count.

You do get one for that price - but the quality of them makes them a true bargain. When buying linens always look for the minimum of 300 thread count - the higher the thread count the higher the price. For these it was a real bargain. Also when laundering good linens do not use a softener - a softener on bed linens will actually break down the thread count - it is the thread count which gives you that built in softness. You will enjoy them. Thanks,

I have owned a couple sets of these sheets for at least 6 months and absolutely love them. Because the elastic is on the entire perimeter, the sheets stay in place much better than regular twin sheets. However, for some strange reason,the sheets on my husband's side of the bed slips often. I think that he is simply a rough sleeper. I have raised my side of the bed to an almost full 90 degrees without the sheet slipping. I turn often in my sleep and the sheet stays in tact. In order to test whether it was a different sizing or better elastic on one sheet, we switched our sheets. Lo and behold, the slipping happened again, so I concluded that it is just my husband!

I got my sheets from Amazon. Graco has fitted sheets for 6-8 dollars apiece and they are VERY snug.

Seems to be for one. I'd go to Anna's Linens. Got red ones last year for $1.99 each. They are really exquisite.

Hi Medi, I'm out of town right now so I can't go to my own bed and experiment with the sheet. All I can say is that it seemed pretty standard to me . . . do you regularly have trouble with standard fitted sheets? If so, you might have the same problem with these. Write back if you want me to experiment a bit when I'm home again (Sunday, Jan. 5) and get back to you with more info.

Yes. I really feel like I've been ripped off for the money spent. I've only washed these sheets twice. The sheets are rough and abrasive. Save your money. I should have looked at the negative reviews first. This sheet set is deceiving because when you first put them on the bed they look and feel perfect. It isn't until you sleep on them that the pilling starts. I wish I would have had a good experience with this product. I usually never complain but I just don't know what happened on this one.

I don't really know what causes "pilling". I do agree that it is an annoying consequence of cheap and sometimes not so cheap sheets. It seems some of the micro fabrics seems to hold up better, but my choice is always 100% cotton high thread count. I have only washed these sheets twice, but they must be washed in cold water and when they come out of the dryer they look brand new. I bought on set to see how they hold up and have since bought another set. I guess it is a crap shoot these days, but these sheets are not all that expensive , they are holding up well and they are wonderfully soft. I hope this opinion helps you with your buying decision.
