Rated 5 out of 5 by EODiny Softest Yet!
I have been using knit sheets for years, and these are the softest ones I've owned. I was pleased to see that there was very little shrinkage; the fitted sheet fits perfectly, and the flat sheet has plenty of size for tucking in, both in length and width. The one thing that I found unusual was that the pillowcases have a pocket, rather that being hemmed all around the opening. I just ignore the pockets and use them the same as regular pillowcases. In spite of that, I still give these sheets five stars.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Dracyy LOVE THEM! Perfect for memory foam beds!
Long ago I found the best sheets to use with a memory foam bed / topper were Jersey as the fabric stretches and allows your body to sink deeper in the foam which is important for me as I have Fibromyalgia and I feel every tiny lump bump or piece of lint. Not all jersey sheets are equal. I've owned dozens from several manufacturers but my search for soft, good quality sheets is now over. These sheets feel smooth as silk on the skin and wash like a dream. They are not too heavy or too light and don't sleep "hot" like some others do. The weave of the fabric is dense but smooth and flexible - no pilling or snagging and it fits my mattress even with a 3 inch memory foam topper! These are true to size with a nice deep pocket. For whatever reason my cats also love these sheets. They roll on them and purr whenever I put them on the bed but unlike other jersey sheets these do not collect and hold onto stray cat hair. The only thing I wish is that they had MORE COLORS PLEASE! Hint hint! Some nice pastels maybe? Seriously more colors please so I can buy more sheet sets. I will never buy any other brand of sheets from now on its my beloved Bean and only my Bean

Rated 5 out of 5 by pcsqueen Excellent "Between Seasons" Sheet
My husband says that I'm the only person in the world who actually has a wardrobe for a bed.
We have Bean's Supima Flannel sheets for winter (which, where we live, can last from September thru May) and Bean's older 220 Count Percale for summer.
These are our In Between sheets - when it's too warm for flannel, but not yet time for the super crisp, cool percale - which, sadly, Bean no longer carries.
Bean compares these sheets to a favorite tee-shirt. I ordered them out of curiosity, expecting to return them because they were too thin and clingy. Instead, I was pleasantly surprised; they're quite substantial, without the slippery, slimy feeling that other jersey sheets have - and that I absolutely hate.
Even though the sheets do have a bit of heft to them, they're not too heavy - perfect for those not-cold-but-not-warm spring and autumn nights.
Like the vast majority of Bean's bedding, they're very well made and fit our bed perfectly. (Tho I would prefer all of Bean's sheets to be a bit wider.) I've only washed them seven or eight times, but, so far, they've held up well in the laundry - no pilling, pulls, or other problems.
I like them so much that I'll be ordering a set for our guest bed - and adding to its wardrobe too!

Rated 5 out of 5 by SaraK Super comfortable!
These sheets are worth every penny. Super soft and cozy, they wash and wear very well. They do not stretch out of shape. I plan to buy another set in a different color.

Rated 4 out of 5 by Mickie329 Super soft and comfy sheets
We bought a set of these for a new King bed. They are super soft and comfortable. I've washed them twice, and they washed and dried well, with no change in quality.
Two small criticisms...we have an extra deep mattress, and these just barely stretch enough-they could be another inch deeper and it would be an improvement.
Also, they are sold in a set, and LL Bean is currently not offering the option of purchasing an extra pair of king cases-you can only get these with the set. This ought to be easy to fix.
