Contributor Jordan Goldberg loves to sleep as cool as she can, so she’s a die-hard for bamboo sheets, which are cooling, moisture-wicking and sateen-adjacent. She reviews these sheets as having “the perfect thickness while still being airy and breathable to keep you cool while sleeping.” Another pro is the thick band on the fitted sheet, so there’s no sheet-shifting in the night, and they cling well to your mattress.

- Silky construction
- Chic design
- Thin
- Off-gassing

“Once snuggled under my massive duvet cover and mountain of pillows, I could feel the slight slick of the sateen construction—a very appreciated detail as NYC was slogging through a heatwave as I tested these,” begins contributor Erika Owen in a raving review of these sateen sheets from AD-favorite bedding brand, Brooklinen. The fitted sheet pocket has a deep design, and after many washes, they just keep getting softer. “These are quality sheets that will last you many seasons,” adds Owen.

- Limited color options
- Quick to wrinkle

Commerce editor Audrey Lee is not only a “big fan” of her Cozy Earth loungewear, but also her cooling bamboo-viscose and linen-blend sheets. According to the brand, bamboo viscose fibers are more hollow than cotton, allowing more air (and heat from your body) to pass through while you sleep. While the linen-bamboo set is only available from the brand’s website, you can buy the bamboo viscose sheets directly from Amazon, which ship for free. They’re “super light and airy,” Lee writes, making them ideal for warmer months or for hot sleepers. They also suit her minimalist bedroom’s style—the neutral and patternless color color variations suit a simple and clean aesthetic.
Best Soft Sheets
Boll & Branch Signature Hemmed Sheet Set
- Made of luxe cotton
- Super soft
- Wrinkle-free
- Organic and OEKO-Tex certified
On the more expensive side
- Materials: 100% cotton , 400 thread count

Contributor Kristi Kellogg says these sheets are “buttery, breathable wonders that make you feel like you’re drifting off to sleep in a five-star hotel.” The sheets are made of top-tier, organic cotton and are completely chemical-free. The 17-inch-deep pocketed fitted sheet makes for a secure sleeping situation, and the sheets get softer with each wash, maintaining their crisp finish and luxe feel after even a couple years, says Kellogg. “These are definitely among the best sheets I’ve ever had,” she notes “I can’t say enough good things about these. Buy them for yourself, buy them for your friends and family—anyone would be thrilled to sleep on these.”

These wrinkle-resistant, super soft sheets are, according to contributor Kristi Kellogg, “a basic sheet at a bargain price.” She found them to be “lightweight and airy,” and coming in at 45 shades, they’re certain to suit whatever style you’re trying to achieve in your sanctuary. Kellogg also confirms they wear well after using them for a couple of years, noting that “they’ve held their shape, color, and softness through dozens of washes.” A quick perusal shows that thousands of reviewers share her opinion.

- Cool-to-the-touch
- Expensive
- Not great for people with pets who like to sleep in bed
- Materials: Eucalyptus, 300 thread count
- Sizes: Full, queen, king

While eucalyptus sheets are generally hypoallergenic, Buffy’s 300-thread-count set is also colored with natural dyes—made from ingredients like turmeric, gardenia, and pomegranate—to avoid any potential irritants (or harm to the environment). Dyes aside, editor and tester Zoë Sessums finds them “cool-to-the-touch,” “ultrasoft,” and silky-smooth. They “only get softer after each wash,” she adds, and the color hasn’t run or faded. The simple, high-quality sheets fit the Scandi-style look perfectly—the neutral color variations will look great tucked inside a teak bed.

If you’re looking for something breathable and cooling, you’ll love this lightweight linen set. It’s a solid set of sheets for summer, and at under $50, it’s a great deal. It’s made of organic cotton, and Oeko-Tex certified. The fitted sheet measures 15″ deep, so it’s compatible with most mattresses. Seen here in mineral, the sheet set is available in more than 20 colors, including charcoal, dusty rose, silver, navy, white, and lilac. Tester Kristi Kellogg says “after a couple years of use, they’re still in tip-top shape—they haven’t faded or pilled, and they’re still soft and comfy.”

You had us at “deep pocket” and “hotel damask,” but content operations manager Livia Caligor can confirm: these sheets are “luxe.” Crisp, smooth, and durable, they deliver on hotel-quality, and versatility. “Even as a cold sleeper who prefers to bundle up in plush layers, I benefited from the cooling properties and smooth feel of this set, especially in the summer months,” she says. “Over time, they’ll become the best bed sheets for those who prefer something softer.” Caligor also loves their sustainability focus—Threadmill operates from a wind and solar energy-powered factory, packs in zero-plastic and reusable cotton tote bags, and all their products are made without harmful chemicals.
Essentia Organic Cotton Sheet Set
- Temperature regulating
- Luxe construction
- Organic materials
- Only one color option
- On the expensive side
- Materials: Organic cotton, 300 thread count
- Sizes: Queen, king, California king
- Colors: White
Assistant to the global editorial director Andrea Lewis is one of many who fears cotton sheets—so we had her test these at the peak of New York summer to prove the integrity of cotton as a year-round fabric. She had to admit: “These sheets provided the perfect balance between coziness and breathability. The Essentia temperature-regulating sheets perfectly stabilized my body heat as the room temp wavered throughout the night.” For those who have sustainability and toxic-free products top of mind, this brand is also combatting chemical exposure by providing stimulant-free products.
Brooklinen Luxe Starter Sheet Set
- Good for hot sleepers
- Soft construction
Top sheet not included
- Materials: 100% GOTS-Certified organic cotton, 300 thread count
- Sizes: Twin, full, queen, king, California king
- Colors: Cream, solid white, windowpane
Brooklyn-based Brooklinen may very well be our most-recommended bedding brand to date, especially when it comes to cotton sheets. It’s a favorite of commerce director Rachel Fletcher, who was quickly wooed by the brand’s cotton Luxe Starter Sheet Set. “I’m a hot sleeper with sensitive skin and they’re really cool on my skin at night, which is a huge relief,” she shares. And unlike other lower-end cotton sets she’s tried, they wash well and are “smooth and not at all scratchy.” (They’re also free of skin-irritating chemicals.) If the Amazon-available neutrals aren’t what you’re looking for, you can find the full range of colorways (and the linen sheet sets) on the brand’s website.
Sheets & Giggles 100% Eucalyptus Lyocell Sheet Set
- Hypoallergenic
- Silky feel
- Moisture wicking
- On the expensive side
- Some reviewers report frayed stitching
- Materials: 100% Eucalyptus lyocell
- Sizes: Full, queen, king, California king
- Colors: Grey
When contributor Kristi Kellogg needed a new set of sheets, she took to Amazon (and read dozens upon dozens of reviews), before landing on this eucalyptus-lyocell set from Sheets + Giggles: “They’re billed as super soft, hypoallergenic, moisture-wicking, and naturally cooling… [and] they also come with a lifetime warranty,” she says. “How can you go wrong?” After testing them for several nights, she reports that they have a “smooth, silky feel that is, really, nothing like a regular cotton sheet.” They’re breathable and stay cool-to-the-touch, and are “super refreshing” even on sweltering summer nights.
Sijo Premium 100% Austrian Eucalyptus Lyocell Tencel Sheet Set
- Cooling
- Hypoallergenic
- Rich color options
Some reviewers report that they are quick to shrink in the wash
- Materials: 100% Eucalyptus lyocell
- Sizes: Twin, full, queen, king, California king
- Colors: Blush, clay, dove, cream, fog, forest, ivory, sage, sapphire, sky, snow, storm, stripe, teal
Sijo’s eucalyptus-lyocell sheets have a slightly lower thread count than the set above, giving them a lighter weight and more relaxed look. (They are, however, just as cooling.) They have “an almost liquid, viscose kind of feel,” says Fletcher, that’s akin to “sleeping on a perfectly worn in vintage T-shirt that also keeps you from getting sweaty.” Unlike cotton sheets, they have a satiny shine and “don’t cling to every corner,” making them especially ideal for those who prefer their sheets untucked. Plus, they’re hypoallergenic, as well as asthma- and allergy-friendly certified.
Good Sleep Bedding Egyptian Cotton Sateen Sheets
- Cooling design
- Deep pockets make for easy bed-making
- Felt like hotel sheets
Significant off-gassing
- Materials: 100% Egyptian cotton, 1,000 thread count
- Sizes: Twin, twin XL, full, queen, king, California king, split king
- Colors: Blush, burgundy, dark grey, ivory, lavender, light blue, light grey, navy blue, sage, tan, taupe, white
Contributor Erika Owen couldn’t have said more positive things about these sheets:“After a single night, they became my favorite set, and a few more nights and a wash only locked in this opinion.” She found them silky, cool, and durable—they maintained their texture, weight, and comfort after many rounds through the washer and dryer, which fans of sateen know is a fairly rare phenomenon. “I would buy these as a gift for my best friend, if that tells you anything about how much I recommend these,” says Owen. “There’s nothing better than feeling really good as you hit the hay—who doesn’t want a luxury bed situation—and I felt that way every time I dug into these silky sheets. Let it also be known that I’m no stranger to night sweats and these kept me cool every single night.” The cherry on top? Deep pockets and sturdy elastic on the fitted sheet so you wake up on your sheet instead of inside it.
How We Tested the Best Sheets on Amazon
We call in a wide variety of sheet types, from budget picks to high-end splurges, from trusted brands as well as those new to us. We take into account the sheets that are generating buzz on Amazon with thousands of positive reviews and test these for ourselves—what makes these so successful? We test every kind of sheet—percale, linen, cotton, you name it—so we have a strong idea of what the market offers and where it succeeds. After a few months, we ask our testers to give us an update—how do the sheets hold up after regular washes and months of use? We evaluate the wear of the elasticity, the durability, and texture and update our reviews accordingly.
How We Chose Our Best Sheets on Amazon
We approached the vast Amazon marketplace through multiple lenses to determine which sheet sets reign supreme.
As your resident sleep enthusiasts, we first considered brands we know and trust that sell their products on Amazon—think Brooklinen, Cozy Earth, and Boll & Branch—and researched how their offerings on Amazon compare to their own websites. We assessed how many sheet options they sell, how competitive their deals are compared to other brands, and how speedy their shipping times could be through the Amazon platform.
Next, we dug deeply into Amazon customer feedback, focusing our attention on which sheets on Amazon have accrued the most ratings and what reviews say regarding overall customer satisfaction, return and refund policies, and more. Through this research, sheets from brands like California Design Den, Melanni, and Bamboo Bay stood out among infinite listings.
Finally, we conducted a broader sweep of the market to ensure that we considered a wide range of personal preferences, from materials to prices to overall sleeping style, in selecting our top sheet sets on Amazon. In doing so, we’re confident there’s an ideal set of sheets on this list to suit most sleep needs.
Amazon Sheets FAQs
What are the benefits of buying sheets on Amazon?
Sometimes you need a set of sheets quick, and Amazon is a good place to turn to check that box. If you’re an Amazon Prime member, you can have your new snooze gear within 24 hours. And we’re far from the days of unknown brands muddying the many (many) pages of products. You can now easily find names you know and trust (like Brooklinen and Cozy Earth) on the menu. Alternatively, if you’re opting for an unknown brand, you have the gift of tons of ratings and reviews to help you make your choice. And if you’re working with a set budget, you are in luck—you can find sheet sets for $50 or $600 ranging all materials and styles.
What to avoid when buying sheets on Amazon?
Always, always check the materials information. While you can absolutely score high-quality materials like cotton, percale, and sateen for a low price point on Amazon, it’s important to make sure you aren’t getting duped. You’re looking to avoid polyester, nylon, synthetic blends with high synthetic content, and low-quality microfiber where you can. It’s worth checking care instructions too, so you don’t purchase a sheet set only to find out the care complexities of your new bedding.
Costco vs. Amazon Sheets: Where Should You Buy Sheets?
One of the best things about shopping on Amazon is the world of choice it offers. You could likely spend an entire day searching through the platform’s stock of bedsheets. Amazon also tends to stock more name brands than Costco, if that’s something that’s important to you. Both Costco and Amazon offer designs for all budgets and are worth researching the next time you’re on the market for new sheets. But if you’re an Amazon Prime member, the one-day shipping and consistent discounts are tough to turn down.
What thread count is the best quality for sheets?
Thread count is a common consideration when buying new sheets. It signifies the total number of yarns used to create a square inch of fabric, and it’s usually used by manufacturers to speak to a sheet’s softness. However, thread count is only one component to consider (along with fiber choices and construction styles) when assessing the overall quality of a set of sheets. In fact, experts say it’s a myth that a higher thread count guarantees a higher-quality sheet and suggest not overthinking thread count when shopping. For instance, a high-quality set of bamboo sheets can feel softer than 1,000-thread count Egyptian cotton sheets.
How much should I pay for good bed sheets?
Similar to thread count, prices for a quality set of sheets can range dramatically and don’t always reflect quality. However, our research shows that you can easily score a good set of bed sheets for as little as $50 and as much as $400 (before factoring in any sales or promotions) depending on your choice of fabric, design details, and sleep preferences.
