Question 1

What fabric are these sheets made out of? What chemical is used to make them "stain resistant"?

Accepted Answer

The ones we bought are made of "microfiber." But that's just a generic term: it simply means a very fine--small diameter--synthetic thread, finer than a strand of silk (which itself is very fine). The basic purpose of using microfibers is that they are very soft and, well, silky. Polyester, Nylon and Kevlar are all used to make microfibers. I remember something in the packaging mentioning "birch," as in the tree, being the source of the material. If that's the case then the microfibers would be cellulosic: Rayon or Viscose, which are soft and luxurious by nature. The fabric could also be a blend, say incorporating polyester microfibers for strength. Regardless, all of these fibers are reasonably stain resistant so I don't believe there is a separate treatment for that. And they're all hypoallergenic.But remember, I'm only guessing as to the chemistry of the actual thread.

Question 2

Do these sheets smell bad after awhile? I ask because they are microfiber and should absorb moisture (i.e. sweat).

Accepted Answer

There are some really snarky answers on here to a very legitimate question. Sorry about that. First, these are the softest sheets I have ever had and I own two sets because I never want to be without them. I’m planning to purchase another set just for travel as we travel frequently and some hotels have scratchy bedding. Yes, I have noticed these do absorb odors and normal washing doesn’t seem to do the job. I wash mine in vinegar and hot water and that works great.

Question 3

How deep is the queen fitted sheet? Also, are there pillow cases that matc?

Accepted Answer

Deborah, are you measuring from the top of the mattress or from where your present sheet starts ?  I am trying to buy sheets online and I looked at the fitted sheet on my Queen bed tonight and I measured from the very top of the mattress to where it goes down and tucks under and my friend said I should measure from where my present sheet's seam starts.  Then I realized that I didn't need a 16" deep pocket - I hope!

Question 4

do these sheets sleep cool?

Accepted Answer

Of course, they are super thin! In no time at all you will have nothing but holes covering you. You will be nice and cool then! True!
