Grams and thread count are two different things. Flannel sheets are usually identified by grams per square meter or ounces per square yard (American terms) of weight. Thread counts usually identify cotton or cotton blend percale or muslin type sheets. 190-gram sheets are approximately equal to 6.7 ounce (American terms) sheets. The higher the weight-grams or ounces for flannel sheets the more durable and generally softer the flannel. Higher thread counts mean the same for percale/muslin type sheets. Hope this helps!

Three descriptions are at the top of this queen comforter: TC=THREAD COUNT; FP=FILL POWER (the higher the number the more "fluffy" it will be; OZ=OUNCES (the weight if this comforter).I hope this information is helpful. I recently bought a comforter from this company and am very happy with itm

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.

Hi I personally don't know difference. I had a queen latex for 10 years and loved it- I needed a king bed and should have bought this from the start- after sleeping on it now for 2-3 months I am still very happy with my choice.

I own these sheets, the higher thread count sheets are actually finer threads. As such, they are not extremely heavy weight, they are however, much softer than lower thread count sheets.

Thread count is a measurement of cotton quality. The term is not used for silk. I have a set of the pillow cases and have washed on delicate cycle. Great quality

I don't know what the thread count is since I do not still have the packaging but I actually do not use the sheet set....... They are pretty thin and the elestic was not strong enough to keep the fitted sheet on my oversized mattress all night (even though it did fit). I do however, love the rest of the set and it is holding up nicely on our guest bed.

I don't know what the actual thread count is but it's not as soft as I would hope for this price. It's also pretty thin.

My preference is to go bigger. . .easier to put on and take off. Tight sheets on a bed is great but tight serves no purpose with bike covers. Go with the large plus one X. I have two in use on sickles and one on a trike. . .and love'm all N-R puts out a nice product especially for the $$$ involved. Peanuts!

It does not list the thread count anywhere. These sheets are very soft, but very thin. I'm using them, but they do not entirely cover my mattress. LOL

I'm sorry I've only used grams at this time. I will try to remember to look into this for you.

I checked the sheets and the shipping information, no where does it state a thread count. My advice is, buy something else. The elastic broke after a very few Washings.

Good Question. I 'assume' thread count just refers to the number of individual treads packed into a given space regardless of what they are made of. That being said, in my experience it has only been applied to fine cotton products. Therefore, it is misleading. I donated these to a charity. They were good polyester sheets. But I wanted cotton.

I have no clue about the thread count, I would say its not 100% cotton, but very soft. Worth the money

I checked my package, but no thread count is listed. All I can tell you is when I removed them from the package they are super super soft and wonderful to sleep on.

I usually use Maxi Lock cone thread. I never like to use the cheapest thread, I was taught that my garment was only as good as the thread I used.

The difference between sewing and embroidery machine that sewing thread is more stronger and thicker. On the other hand, embroidery is very thin and thin. It is not a good idea to sew a project with embroidery thread, more likely the project will tear apart very soon. I will recommend to check polyester sewing thread. It will be good for any fabric and very strong.
