So... what's the one thing I thought I'd never be reviewing? Probably sheets.That said, my wife and I decided to redo our bedroom, with new furniture, carpeting, and a new mattress.... and when buying the new mattress, we completely forgot why we weren't going to upgrade to a king size... all of our sheets and comforters were for queen size.Oops.So, with the new furniture on the way, we realized we needed new sheets.... after spending more time at rather large brand name stores, we realized 3 things.1.) King sized sheets are harder to find, and come in less options.2.) Holy COW the prices for King sized sheets were crazy.3.) We were going to buy our first set of 1000TC Egyptian Cotton sheets... just to see why the rest of the world is so gaga over them.After being unable to stomach spending the $300+ for a good 1000TC set, I decided we'd check on Amazon.After looking around, we decided to go with this brand, due to the amount of reviews, and positive responses.They showed up quickly, they were installed on the bed... and I have to admit, the first day, I took a nap on them, and thought.. 'meh.. not bad.. not great.. but not bad'... Keep in mind this was a 2 hour nap, on top of the sheets, after moving furniture all day long.So... when I went to bed, later that night, I wasn't all that excited about sheets... after all.. they're just sheets...Now, this is the part where things got weird. They're just sheets... right?*sigh* I'm forever ruined, now.After sleeping under the sheets all night.. I woke up the next morning, surprised.... it was 8am.. on a weekend.. and I was wide awake, refreshed and comfortable in bed.... and while I'm sure some of this had to do with the new mattress... there's 1 thing that I discovered... the sheets weren't hot... they weren't cold.. they were... neutral.I tend to run hot, and every set of sheets we've ever tried.. I wind up overly hot under them, and kick off the sheet and blankets during the night... But, there I was.... super comfortable.. at an hour I normally don't see on the weekends...When my wife woke up, about an hour later.. even she commented on how comfortable the sheets were. She wasn't cold, nor hot.. just.. comfortable.*sigh* Apparently after discussing it, we're planning on our next couple of purchases of the same sheets (different colors).... LOL... So much for the cheap $20-30 sheets.. I'm gonna be broke, it appears.The silver lining of this, is that these sheets are awesome, and their price is amazing compared to other 1000TC sets of sheets you'll find in stores.Seriously, give them a shot.. if I can be made to be a believer in what I was missing.. you can too :)
