PLEASE Tell Me What's So Great About Egyptian Cotton Sheets....

Seriously, what is the big hoopla over Egyptian Cotton sheets? The higher the thread count, the more wrinkled they come out of the dryer. I will never buy them again. Ever. 



They always look dreadful coming out of the dryer, crinkled up into tiny little balls of wrinkles. Frankly, I have better things to do with my time than iron freaking sheets and better places to spend my money than on sheets of 100% Egyptian cotton, when all they really need is just a tad of polyester or whatever, to insure minimum wrinkles. Here's your sign:







Enough said, right? From now on, I intend to buy sheets that don't come out of the dryer looking like a Popcorn Ball on Crack. Who's with me?






So, could I recommend any sheet sets I've found that I like? You bet I can! I ended up going to Bed, Bath & Beyond and I bought sets of these sheets for every bed in the house. The best part? They are totally affordable AND they claim to destroy all odors like pets, smoke and body accidents, which I'm pretty sure means the dreaded Dutch Oven, right? In the picture above, they are the ones on the right......

I am not with you on this one...sorry. Gotta have that thread count. And you can take them out fast and not have to iron them!

Haha, I love you! Once my wrinkled sheets get on the bed they don't look as wrinkled anymore! I don't have any idea what kind of sheets I have on my bed right now (we got them when we bought the bed at the mattress store) but they are the nicest, softest sheets we have ever had.

Seriously, the issue wasn't softness. It was wrinkles! I hate wrinkles on sheets, LOL!

I'm with you on the wrinkles, and I'm NOT ironing sheets! Looks to me like you hit on the perfect sheets.
