Bed Sheets & Sheet Sets

Buying bed sheets.

Find the best sheets for you.

Choosing the right bed linens for your mattress is more complicated than picking between white and colored sheets or making sure you have the right size. Sheets are an investment, whether you’re picking them out for your bedroom’s king mattress or the twin in a college dorm.

Fabric is perhaps the more important aspect. If you sleep hot, the best sheets for your comfort will be made of breathable fabrics like cotton or have moisture-wicking capabilities for excess sweat. For a soft feel, look for top and fitted sheets with a high thread count, which creates a superior fabric that will wear well over time. Using a sheet set with a softer finish can also be a good choice for pillow cases to ensure a comfortable pillow for sleeping. And if you have allergies or sensitive skin, choose hypoallergenic sheets and a mattress protector.

Adding bed linens to your bedroom décor.

When choosing bed sheets, it is important to think of how your sheets will reflect your taste and complement your bedroom furniture. Your flat sheet and pillowcases can offer a pop of color in the space or keep things sleek and simple. You can choose colors that match your décor or stick to classic white for a crisp, clean feel. And it’s always fun to choose something cute or exciting for kids’ rooms and nurseries.

Finally, when putting together a sheet selection, you should keep in mind the seasons. Having thicker sheets for colder months can be cozy when you want to snuggle up in bed. But you’ll most likely want lighter sheets for better sleep in the summer. To learn more about creating a great sleep environment and other sleep hygiene tips, visit our Discover & Learn hub.
