2.0 out of 5 stars Choose the other "Pike Sheet 1000TC", May 21, 2009

This review is from: Pike Street 1,000-Thread-Count Egyptian Cotton Sheet Set (Kitchen)

It is very important to note that these are much different (in both quality and size) that the other "Pike Street 1000 Thread Count" sets available on a different page (same price range, but says "Single-Ply Sateen" rather than "Eqyptian").
The "Single Ply" feel twice as substantial as these "Egyptian", and weigh more (almost 1 pound heavier in weight). In addition, the Queen flat sheets for "Single-Ply" measure 93 x 101 (92 x 102 is supposed to be Queen standard), whereas these 'Egyptian' measure only 88 x 98.
Have owned at least 4 other brands of 1000TC sheets.

This review is from: Pike Street 1,000-Thread-Count Egyptian Cotton Sheet Set (Kitchen)

Let me be as brief as possible. yes these are thick sheets, and yes they are cheap for a Queen size --- but they are rough and far from soft. I'm a 28 year old guy, so I assure you, I'm not just wining about these sheets because they're wrinkled when they come out of the dryer. both myself and my girlfriend find them uncomfortable. Definately tolerable, but the fact that my preivous sets of 600 thread count sheets were far softer makes it clear that there is more to consider than the thread count.

I've done extensive travel in Youth Hostels in Central America and Europe staying at places as little ast $10 / night= those places had softer sheets. Please beware and spend the extra $20 and check out sheets at a store. don't make the same mistake i did.

Given the variance in reviews, i'm thinking Pike street is a brand that buys discounted sheets from a third party and repackages them for a profit.

UPDATE 8/1/10***** - I retract my earlier statement about these being tolerable. I'm an idiot for not returning them when i could. After washing a few times, they become so course and rough, they're only suitable to make up a dog's bed. I wouldn't even use them for guests sleeping on the bed in a frat house. They are the worst sheets i've encountered in nearly 30 years.

3.0 out of 5 stars Smooth as silk to sleep on but wow do they wrinkle, March 20, 2007

This review is from: Pike Street 1,000-Thread-Count Egyptian Cotton Queen Sheet Set, White (Kitchen)

I very much agree with the previous reviewer, Ms. Koncewicz, especially her notion that these will be great to sleep on in summer. Also, I especially like that the set's standard pillow cases fit queen-size pillows with room to spare. On the downside, I've never seen sheets come out of the dryer anywhere near as wrinkled as these do.

Postscript: Above was written in March, now it's July and yes they're still comfortable. But I find I just can't stand the wrinkles. Since I also can't bring myself to iron them when I have Amazon's perfectly nice and equally comfortable wrinkle-free 500-count Pinzon sheets in the linen closet, these are going into the Goodwill bin at the next opportunity. Would definitely NOT recommend to people who don't iron their sheets.
