Royal TraditionViscose from Bamboo Bed Sheets, Twin Extra Long XL, Solid Sage, Super Soft and Cool 3PC Sheet Set

I bought these about two months ago and over that time I've used them about a month and washed them four or five times. When I got them, I gave them a close inspection, checking all seams and every inch of them for defects. Mine were great. They did have some strings hanging out from inside the seems from the cut edge of the fabric. I cut those off; no big deal since the seams themselves were fine. If I had spent $200, I might be annoyed but that’s what I would expect for $85 sheets. With a mattress pad, feather bed, and queen-sized mattress measuring about 13.5 inches thick, they fit it well. I also like the extra elastic straps across the corners of the fitted sheets. They help ensure the fitted sheet stays on. Overall, these seem to be well-made.This is my first set of bamboo sheets. The fabric is interesting in that it feels sturdy and thick, yet soft and definitely not heavy. However, when they come out the washer and are wet they do feel extra heavy and thick, more so than most cotton sheets I've used, but they lighten as they dry. I’ll be surprised if they don’t wear well over time and last many years.As far as wrinkles, these are FAR from wrinkle free. I would definitely not describe these as low-maintenance. First of all, don’t let them sit in the washer long after the cycle is done or they will get extra wrinkled and the wrinkles will be difficult to get out. Second, give them a really good shake after they come out the washer to try to get some wrinkles out. I put mine in the dryer on air-fluff for about ten minutes to get any lint, hair, etc. off them and after the fluff cycle is done, I immediately hang them on a drying rack. If I let them hang for about 24 hours they turn out nicely smooth with only few light wrinkles, except for the hemmed edge on the top sheet. Thus far, I think you’d have to iron that to get it looking smooth. Same with the pillow cases. That’s far too much work for me since I’m not really bothered by it, but if you want your sheets to look perfect and hotel-like, keep that in mind.I got the Royal Blue sheets and the color did not match the photo. The photo depicts a darker color, more towards navy on the color scale. What I got actually looks like royal blue, just not the same royal blue in the picture. It’s a bit lighter in color. It’s still a nice color, so it’s not a deal breaker, but it’s also not as shown in the photo. I also use a facial acne cream that uses salicylic acid and it can be brutal on colored fabric, often discoloring it. With older, harsher, less environmentally friendly coloring methods, this is usually not the case, but many modern eco-friendly coloring methods don’t stand a chance. I hoped that these sheets might be “acid-proof,” so to speak, but they are not. So far they seem to be holding up better than many other colors/styles, but not perfectly either as some fading is evident.These sheets have definitely gotten softer after two months; softer than when I first used them and I expect them to continue to soften. Are they the "softest sheets ever” as I’ve read in reviews? Probably not, but they are soft and they feel nice. I like them and my woman does too (BONUS). They feel different than cotton or flannel in a good way, but not necessarily better or worse. Compared to well-worn soft cotton, they have a slightly smoother feel to them but they’re not quite as soft, which I would expect from a more processed fabric. Again, I do expect them to continue to soften over time. Overall, I’m pleased with the purchase and assuming they wear well over time, I will continue to be. Are they “perfect?” No, but what in life is? They have positive and negative qualities and to each his or her own as to what qualities make these sheets a good fit for you. For me, I’ll add them into the rotation of cotton and flannel sheets that I have for a welcome change of pace.

I love the sheets. They are definitely cooler. I love the feel of them. The fitted sheets are perfect size for my deep pocket mattress, plus they come with an elastic band at the corners to keep fitted sheet in place. I have already told my friends about them. They washed up well. I purchased the Cal king split set.

Extra nice to have sheets that actually fit and stay in place, top sheet has extra width so covers you all night even if you toss & turn, very soft and comfortable.

I love these as they are super soft and comfortable. The gold colour glows and remains bright after washing in cold water. They are a bit slippery. My only complaint is they wrinkle a bit more than expected but it is not horrible.

The fabric: These cases are perfectly adequate pillow cases, but I wouldn’t call them particularly soft or luxurious. I have 3 sets of sateen cotton (2 oooold and we’ll worn one new a month ago) that have a softer silkier hand than these sheets. The weave on these is fairly coarse which somewhat interferes with their ability to be “silky.” But they’re fine for everyday expectations.The color: The color, however, is wayyyyyy off. Labeled “periwinkle,” these sheets are definitely not periwinkle. Sheesh! Pantone’s 2022 Color of the year is PANTONE 17-3938 Very Peri—a dark periwinkle: kind of weird to get this so wrong in this very year.So, this is not periwinkle. It is a dark gray (like wet cement) with some slightly purple-ish undertones. And it is much darker than the image onscreen. Since these were to go in a bedroom with spa, Aqua, lilac, and periwinkle (my pastel “abalone shell” bedroom) this was a big miss. Luckily for my carbon footprint, they’ll work in the grey bedroom that uses mixed greys, but either change the name or change the color!

Trust the names of the colors. Pictures made teal look dark evergreen. They are definitely teal- lots of blue in them. They feel nice but not as soft as other bamboo sheets we’ve owned.

I got these sheets a couple months ago for an olympic queen mattress. The sage color is really pretty. There was some discolorations on the flat sheet but I kept them anyway. The pillow cases are way too small, the sheets stretch out a lot after sleeping on them. I think I have washed them 3 or 4 times as they are on a guest bed. Today one of the pillow cases case apart at the seam. I would recommend these sheets.

Very soft and cool if you are a hot sleeper.

Was disappointed in the fabric. A little on the rough side. Don’t even use them now. But I did like the color. Plus they wrinkle like crazy.
