Linen Home 100% Cotton Percale Pillowcases Queen Size, Pastel Turk, 2 Pieces of Pillow Case, Crisp and Cool Strong Bed Linen, 20 inches X 30 inches

I've grown to love white bed sheets, white bath towels, white bath mats, white hand towels, white dish towels, white cleaning towels, and white linens in general - why?Bleach.Bleach is your friend in this new age. While I love the environment too, the EPA rules have had some unintended consequences that have really played havoc for us all. In order to reduce water consumption, laundry can't be fully submerged in the new EPA prescribed limited fill allowance of water for washing machines (set by the EPA) unless you have an HE FRONT LOADING machine that turns them on their side and there is no way to fix this with modern top loading machines. Add to that, in order to reduce energy consumption, hot water is no longer really hot - and let's face it...there are times you need that water to be hot. I have 4 kids... Just use your imagination. If you happen to have a tankless water heater, you never...ever...get even warm water into the washer itself because the water pull isn't on long enough to activate the tankless water heater to churn out hot water...so in winter you are washing everything in ice cold water. Some machines have internal water heaters through an allergy cycle, or you can add stand-alone water heaters or run a dishwasher simultaneously or send some random kid to the showers...the point is...there is a real need for bleach in this new environment. And phosphates (sodium tripolyphosphate if you actually want the soap to work and get stains out, and get rid of the heavy metals, and lather, and actually achieve soft laundry again, ...but that's another argument. If you are bored...I wrote it up here...cool read actually.....(https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01N0QGSSU/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1) .Which brings me to this beauty of a find. It took a while to realize why some sheets were prone to pilling and getting 'scratchy" and others were not. Sateen, while soft and lovely, is only good for a short while because the weave of Sateen is prone to pilling. Tossing and turning stress the fibers and catch, creating pulls of fabric. Percale, on the other hand, is not going to do this. This particular weave style is strong and although it does not have quite the same texture of Sateen, you couldn't call it "rough" by any stretch - especially after you wash it...with those phosphates I mentioned. Seriously guys...the phosphates.Pros:- Like the song says..."Soft and white, clean and bright"...these don't disappoint.- Wash them guys. Use fabric softener. And phosphates. Phosphates bind up heavy metals that make materials feel rough. You used to have it in your laundry detergents. Now you only have it in your garden fertilizer - and your food. It's a food additive too. For all you fellow chemists out there (Adenosine Tri-Phosphate - ATP). It's in our..ahem..waste..too. Somehow the EPA is only worried about soap. But hotels, restaurants, and all businesses in general kept it. They all have soft linens. You didn't - and you don't. It's not your fault. Add it back. Just once.- I dislike the word "crisp" for sheets. Crisp is like a cracker. That's just not the descriptor I want for a bed sheet. They are substantial though. Substantial, as in "not paper-thin". When you move them, they are substantial enough that you hear the material ruffling a bit. They are soft, but without the heat retention of sateen. They are cool, but not cold (and it just dipped to freezing last night) and I still woke happy and cozy in my bed sheets...yet interestingly, not sweating which I'm prone to do at times.- Price. The best part of percale? The weave is such that it doesn't "require" the thread count that sateen requires. This is a big deal because the lower thread count is not the indicator of lower quality here. You are unlikely to ever find high thread count percale woven sheets. Well, if the thread count is lower, then material costs are lower, and as such, the final product is actually cheaper.- Deep pockets. They. Aren't. Lying. Seriously. For the first time, I don't have to use corner clasps which break and are a pain to deal with. These have yet to come untucked in any corner. I have an air bed - meaning that there are times when you sit up in the bed and you are really pulling on the sheet at a top corner. These are deep pocketed enough that they don't come untucked, despite the pull.- No issues with bleach. The first thing I did was wash these with Tide (free and clear) + phosphates added, Bleach, and Downy (free an clear) and dried with Bounce Dryer Sheet (Free and clear). There were no issues whatsoever with bleach - and I wouldn't expect there to be with a totally white fabric.Cons:- If you can't stand the thought of wrinkles under a bed comforter but you just know they are there and that's about to drive you insane, then percale is probably not the best idea. I'm not judging. Everybody has their own thing. Having said that, the wrinkles are not such that when you lie down, all that your body feels is "fabric wrinkle". That would be a wrong impression. I'm just saying that it's like a cotton t-shirt folded in a drawer. It's not stiff, but you know it wasn't hung. Will it feel uncomfortable? Nope. Will you see a wrinkle...maybe. Yeah...you will. Will you feel it? No.These are really worth the plunge. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend them (in white) to anyone. I say white, because I can't vouch for the dying process and the color fastness of the other options. With the white, you can't go wrong.

These sheets are perfect! I sleep really hot and often times wake up sweaty and uncomfortable many times in the night. I was convinced that my usual sheet sets which all are polyester blends or 100% polyester were to blame for this. I spent a long time looking for an affordable 100% cotton percale sheet set. I read tons of reviews on many different sets and decided on these. I was super excited to get them in the wash and onto the bed as soon as they arrived. I have been sleeping comfortably and have not had any night sweats since! They feel great. Not too scratchy or silky, just perfectly crisp. The color was perfect and accurate to the photo. They feel like they should be more expensive than they are, and appear to be well made. They are a little wrinkly out of the dryer, but that is to be expected with 100% cotton. I just throw them in with a few of those wool dryer balls to keep them from balling up in the dryer, and the wrinkling isn’t too bad. I will definitely be replacing all my sheets with these!

I had previously purchased normal queen-sized pillowcases, from this seller, but they were too short. I purchased these king-sized ones and cut the 'end' off, sewing it closed. Now it's the perfect size! It does have to be ironed, every few washings, unless you like to wake up with bizarre, road-map-like, creases on your own face. They do feel good, on your skin. Sturdy material!

I see a lot of people complaining about these being too small for their pillows. Guys, make sure you are buying the correct size. You might think you have a Queen pillow but it could be a King, etc. It's a common mistake. I have King size pillows and the King pillowcase is perfect. It drapes over the edges with extra room and there was no issue of it slipping off the pillow throughout the night like I've had with other pillowcases.Because of the cheap price I was worried about the quality but was not disappointed. My pillows have cooling technology and these pillowcases did not hinder them. The only complimented them. I slept well. The fabric is thick and crisp (not airy, lightweight or buttery) but cool and breathable. It kept an even temperature throughout the whole night. I didn't have to flip the pillow to get to the cool side.You won't be disappointed! But if you haven't recently bought your pillows, measure them so you know the correct size before you buy so you can enjoy these like me instead of missing out like the 1-star reviewers.

These pillowcases are just as good if not better than the high-end pillowcases that I have spent a fortune for previously. These pillowcases are soft, cool and very well-made. I look forward to trying their sheets my next purchase.

Color is perfect. Seems are well stitched.Not cool as expected. Only a standard size, thought queen would be larger than standard and smaller than a king. Nope and they smell. I bought two packs. I need more larger so will return one pack and hope after washing the other they will be cooler and smell better.

Would buy again very cool, crisp and gray color well-made

These pillow cases are awful. They came out of the dryer terribly wrinkled. I even tried to steam them in the dryer, and they still need to be ironed before I can use them. They are not very soft. The pillow protectors I purchased are better than these pillow cases. I don't recommend.

Nice pillowcases but not the colour I was expecting. Kept them anyway.

The material is nice quality, the size is good but the color I ordered was cream and it is more like peach. Otherwise I am satisfied with them.
