Has anyone here tried microfiber bed sheets?

Supposed to be hypo allergenic, etc... Wick away moisture, etc... Looks good aside from the fact that they retain body heat which is ok in the winter but I like a cool crisp cotton sheet.

Will I like microfiber or hate it?

Microfiber sheets are not necessarily bad in winter. They're pretty thin and can wick away heat as easily as they wick away moisture. Really good ones are closer to satin than they are to cotton and they don't get sweaty and sticky on hot nights. Check out online reviews of specific models, some are better than others. I've also heard that good quality bamboo sheets can be really good for hot nights, but have never tried them,

I am currently using a set of microfiber sheets. They were cheap, only $20 on amazon. They look nice and are very soft, but the biggest problem for me is they stick to my clothes. I turn over a lot during the night and it's annoying having to re-arrange my shirt each time, or lift up the sheets before I turn. Otherwise I like them.

I am also using the Amazon Basics microfiber sheets. I like them very much, and they are crazy-affordable.
