Threadmill Luxury Supima Queen Sheet Set

Ladies and gentlemen, I am 52 years old and have a firm of lupus that causes my skin to break out in a terrible, painful, itching, burning rash during flare ups. It’s bad. BAD. I cannot sleep on sheets unless they are SOFT … anything a little abrasive will hurt like crazy. Therefore, my husband and I have made peace with spending filthy money for bed linens. Do I wish 300 TC sheets from Walmart would work for me? Yes. Have I tried them? Yes. Have I cried? Oh, yes. This past flare-up has been excruciating,and sleeping has been almost impossible, so I thought maybe I need to try different bed clothes. ( I’ve been using bamboo from Layla) maybe I need to switch back to cotton. Enter these sheets. I read the reviews. There was one that advised against buying these, but it seemed snarky and I thought, maybe they just didn’t like them.. b/c there were MANY MORE positive reviews exclaiming how “soft”, “luxurious”, “ like silk” these were. I AM SO CONFUSED. Guys, I didn’t make it through the first night. And I TRIED to like these sheets. I liked the weight, the color, the packaging… the fact they are nice to the environment, but oh my goodness, it was awful. I washed them, dried them and immediately put them on my bed. They felt fine against my hands, so I was excited. But when I climbed into bed I was shocked. 1200 TC. Twelve Hundred! I’ve paid upwards of 250-300 for 800TC from Dillards and these would not hold a candle to those. WHAT THE HECK is going on, I thought. I got out of bed, took everything off my bed to expose the bottom sheet and ran my hand over the sheet. There was a kind of minuscule-like graininess on them, so I ran my hands over them til that was gone ( maybe the cotton lifted during the drying time?) and hopped back in bed. I laid there. I turned to one side and then the other. What the heck??? How can these sheets be so abrasive?? They are 1200 tc!!! I laid there a little longer, willing myself to stop being a baby and LIKE the sheets. And then it hit me: “ you paid $212 for these bad boys, YOU SHOULDN’T HAVE TO TRY THIS HARD! “But,” myself said to myself, “ maybe after a few washes…” … NO. NO. NO. Not after a few washes! I got up and took the flat sheet of my old bamboo sheet and replaced the new pillow case on my pillow with my old bamboo pillow case and got back into bed ( I couldn’t change the bottom sheet b/c my husband was sleeping and I did not want to wake him. Sooooo much better. So, I immediately logged back on to Amazon and selected “Return” and “ not as described” . These sheets are NOT soft. They are abrasive, and I don’t know, gritty? Pilly? Who knows. I’m sorry sheet makers, but for $212, in this economy, you gotta do better. I immediately logged onto Quince and ordered a new set of bamboo viscose sheets. Bamboo— it’s the only way to go. Unless, maybe these were a one off? I don’t know… I’m too scared to try again… I need to sleep.
