What is the thread count of your sheets? Where would you like to see yourself in the future? Best sheets ever?

400 count 100% egyptian cotton here. :) Looking to move to an 800 or maybe if I'm feeling frisky a 1200 count. Wish me luck!

We have 450 pima cotton sheets or something like that, but honestly I prefer the feel of flannel or jersey knit sheets.

I sleep on 800 thread count sheets. I bought a set of 1200 thread count, but I found them too thick, so I switched back to 800s. I have a few sets of sheets too. The sheets currently on my bed are a nice, creamy pistachio color, with cream accents, and a brown/gray duvet cover on my down comforter. Yes, I pamper myself when I sleep.

1200s are really meant to be high durability -- in a high end hotel for instance.

I wish I could afford 500 bones for a 1500 count set. My god it would be sex in sheet form.

The horror! Jersey knit?! I'd rather sleep on a bed of nails. Flannel aren't very useful in Texas, and even if it is cold, I like the cold feeling when I first get in bed.

I feel like silk is too light, so you can't really appreciate the softness. When I was in China we went to silk shop, that had some dope comforters.

See my post. 1200s are too thick, 1500s are thicker (I've slept on both). I think the best sheets are 800 thread count, since they are a great compromise between flexibility and softness.

That, I do. Pretty serious issues. My bed cost more than my computer. A ton more. Why skimp when you spend 40% of your life in bed?

400 egyptian cotton for my flat sheet

the fitted sheet doesnt fit wtih my memory foam in so I had to switch it out for a 300 count cotton fitted.

I still feel that egyptian cotton is the best. I've tried the Pimas for 600 and 800 and they just dont feel as good. Egyptian cotton is softttttttttt and sexy

My 800s are Egyptian cotton too. They, however, fit my Tempurpedic mattress.

What are these sheets you speak of? Seriously I've had comfy sheets before but I currently just sleep under two thinnish comforters.
