This was our fourth set of Pinzon flannel sheets, however this is our first set with bamboo woven into the sheet. Pinzon sheets are great, these are beyond great. Can flannel sheets be silky? These cotton/bamboo flannel sheets are - amazingly so. The sheets out of the package are not skimpy; we washed our sheets according to the package instructions and there was no noticible shrinkage. On the bed, these sheets are not skimpy and would fit a thicker matress than ours is which is about medium in thickness, but not a pillowtop. The weight of these sheets is akin to a summer blanket. Some all cotton flannel sheets can feel "baked" and stiff after they've been run through a dryer, but these were soft, light.

One word of caution, though: as with all flannel sheets, check the dryer's lint trap very frequently during their first drying cycle - the lint off fresh flannel sheets can plug up your dryers lint screen very quickly. These sheets are no exception - in fact we cleared out the lint screen about seven times over the first drying period.

Other than that, I recommend these sheets without any reservations.

These sheets are very soft medium weight flannel but they pill like crazy. I have little balls of flannel all around the bed that are annoying to clean up and after 4 weeks and 4 washings areas of the surface are starting to pill and have lost the nap. Overall I am disappointed in these sheets and I don't expect them to last very long.

I would recommend looking at the Pinzon 190 gram Velvet Flannel sheets.Pinzon 190-Gram Velvet Flannel Queen Sheet Set, Chamois
They are almost as soft but wear so much better. I had a set in constant use for 3 months washing them once a week and they still look and feel like new. A great value for the same price as these bamboo blend sheets.

I purchased these sheets as a birthday gift for my 89-yr-old-mother: the woman who has everything she wants or needs. She is a very practical woman and I was sure that she was going to wonder why in the world she needed another set of sheets, but ..... to my surprise she was pleased and excited about the gift. And that was BEFORE she even used them!!! Now that she has tried them she is more than excited! She thinks they are like sleeping in a warm, silk cloud and absolsutely LOVES them!

This is a good floral design book to add to your collection. Has wonderful pictures and good information. Also looks good on the coffee table.

I was given a gift certificate from Amazon and decided to try flannel sheets. This set had good reviews and was on sale. I washed them in cold water as instructed and they were very soft. I liked that they fit our thick mattress and after several washings, they are still soft and still fit. They do wrinkle a little, but not enough to cause problems. I would definitely buy another set.
