The Softest Sheets You’ll Ever Sleep on Are Just One Click Away

If you thought a California king was as big as it gets, think again. After finding that sheets for custom-sized Vermont, Alaska, and Texas king beds were few and far between, luxury sheet atelier Vero Linens decided to make something bigger and better. The brand’s oversized sheets and comforters are high-quality and all made by textile experts in Italy. Even if you’re not living large but sleeping soundly on a more standard-sized mattress, the brand offers buttery soft linens for you, too.

Amazon boasts more than a few thousand sheet sets, so it might be hard to narrow it down to styles that are truly worth your dime. Let the 300,000 reviewers convince you to try this one. This lightweight, super soft four-piece set is made of brushed microfiber that was designed with sensitive sleepers in mind, so feel free to sleep in the nude if that’s what suits you. On the off chance that you don’t love these sheets, Mellanni offers a lifetime warranty, so you can return the product, no questions asked. Did we mention that they look like hotel sheets for less than $40, too? 

When you think of luxury bed linens, your mind might naturally drift toward something like high trend counts or 100 percent linen. But technological advances in the fabric game will have you redefining what luxury looks like. Made of 100 percent premium viscose from bamboo, Cozy Earth sheets rival those with even the highest quality cotton. Many of the 5,000 raving reviewers claim these sheets to be the softest they’ve ever laid on. They also aid in temperature regulation, so you’ll never overheat during an unexpected hot flash again.

Some people love climbing into a set of crisp cotton sheets at the end of a long day, but the soft, worn-in texture of linen just can’t be beat for others. Commerce Editor Katie P. has been sleeping on a set of linen sheets from Magic Linen for nearly four years now, and they’re still her favorite. “They get softer with each wash, are extremely breathable, and they don’t shed as much as other linen sheets I’ve tried,” she says. Plus, they lend themselves to a perfectly undone, lived-in vibe if that’s what you’re going for.

With over 100,000 five-star reviews, Brooklinen gained positive notoriety for great sheets at a fraction of the price of its competitors. The brand’s bestseller is this 100 percent cotton percale fabric, meaning it’s light, crisp, and super durable. The breathable 270-thread-count weave is ideal for hot sleepers who need some help staying cool through the night. 

You might know L.L.Bean best for their Bean boots and outdoorsy bent, but they have garnered a good reputation for their indoor products, too. The brand’s flannel sheets top multiple lists for being the absolute softest of their kind year over year. Just look at some of their customer reviews: “These are the best flannel sheets I have ever slept on, and I have loved flannel sheets since my Canadian childhood. They are baby soft and light, not clinging, and have not pilled at all.” We’re especially impressed with the wide range of prints like this sweet botanical design, which is an unexpected pattern that will cheer up any room. 

For a set that feels buttery soft but strays from traditional fibers, consider Sweet Zzz. Made from 100 percent viscose from organically grown bamboo trees, the fabric will naturally keep you cool, which is the best gift you can give a hot sleeper. These sheets are surprisingly sturdy and will last you ages, but if they don’t, the brand also offers a lifetime warranty. This is luxury at its finest, without the sticker shock.

There’s a reason why you sleep better in a hotel room: the pristinely made bed. Give yourself the five-star treatment at home with Quince’s organic sateen cotton bedding. Not only is it beautifully crafted by artisans, but it’s smooth to the touch with sophisticated embroidered details that look way more expensive than the sticker price. 

For soft sheets meant to be snuggled in, try brushed cotton. It has the worn-in feel you loved from your childhood sheets your mom tucked you into at night, but these are way chicer. For one, they’re not covered in spaceships or Disney characters, but they’re also made in Portugal from 100 percent cotton. Parachute’s luxe sheets are so comforting, they can coax you out of the scariest of nightmares.

For high-quality linen, we always recommend Linoto. These are sheets that look like they belong in a villa set in the French countryside (even though the linen is milled in Italy and Belgium, and made in the USA). Not only are they available in a range of beautiful hues, but they are also pre-washed so you don’t have to worry about stiff fabric on your first night’s rest. 

If you prefer to keep your household organic, Coyuchi will cater to your sustainable needs. Since 1991, the brand has been dedicated to prioritizing organic cotton, producing high-quality linens that can be held accountable. Not only are the sheets responsibly made, but Coyuchi also offers a program where you can send back your used sheets to be recycled and renewed, some of which funnels into Coyuchi’s 2nd Home Renewed, a circular line of products that have been cleaned, mended, and resold for a fraction of the full price. The brand just launched this Climate Beneficial collection, which takes their best-selling twill sheets but designs them with a new coalition working to change how cotton is grown in California, supporting local farmers to help restore the soil in the brand’s home state.

For a bedscape that has that super smooth, sateen look, this is your last stop. Ettitude’s sheets are all made with 100 percent bamboo lyocell, which has cooling properties to help regulate your body temperature from overheating. But unlike most bamboo sheets, these look and feel super silky.

Lulu and Georgia is better known for its beautiful furniture and rugs — think of the brand for bringing a modern European aesthetic to the California coast — but don’t miss its bed linens. They have a curated collection of linen sheets that are pre-washed for a vintage touch. 

Oftentimes, when we think of linen sheets, we think of a coastal grandma aesthetic. That’s where Piglet in Bed upends it. While they do offer beautiful neutral bedding that would work for everyone, we’re particularly fond of the brand’s penchant for bold, punchy hues and prints like gingham blues, apple greens, and sunny yellows, without sacrificing the feeling of cozy, lived-in sheets. Your bed should be your safe space, so why not choose a color that matches your personality? 

First and foremost, we completely admit that silk sheets are a luxury many of us cannot access. But for those who can, it’ll be worth it. We’ve all heard about the skin-boosting benefits of using a silk pillowcase, and the same can be said for what happens if you sleep in 100 percent silk sheets. After investing in these, you might not want to spend even more money taking them to the dry cleaner every time you wash your sheets (and we’ve outlined how often that should be). Look to Lunya if that’s where your head’s at: These are machine washable.

Our deputy editor Maggie P. just transitioned her bedding to this brand, and she says they live up to their name. She likes a soft sheet but not silk because it traps heat. While she’d been sleeping on jersey sheets she discovered in college, PeachSkinSheets offered an appealing upgrade. They maintain that soft, comforting feeling of her 15-year-old dorm room sheets but have a smoothness that feels buttery against her skin and stays cool through the night. Her favorite quality? They’re oversized and never pop off during the night, no matter how restless her sleep is.
