Amazon Brand – Pinzon Signature Cotton Heavyweight Velvet Flannel Sheet Set - King, Graphite

I've washed these sheets about a dozen times now, and I think they are about the best flannel sheets I've ever bought or slept on. Soft and thick. During the summer they were all that we needed, sometimes too warm, even on their own. The blue color is deep and rich. Some reviewers have complained about the amount of lint that they give up in the dryer, but I have not found it to be more than any other flannel sheets I've owned. Flannel sheets always give up lint--for a long time, not just the first few washes. I think if you hang them to dry outdoors, these sheets might feel stiff, because of their thickness, and also air-dried lint might be an issue when you're sleeping on them. The dryer takes care of the lint. Environmentally not so good, of course.... We have a deep mattress and the fitted sheet is deep, and the corners have been sturdy, and sheet fits tight and smooth after many washings. My one complaint might be that the top sheet could be a bit longer. It's long enough to tuck in a few inches and have the top folded back about nine inches, so really it's adequate, just would be nice to have another six inches of length to tuck securely.

We were shopping for a new set of sheets and had heard that flannel were good for keeping you warm during the winter months. After spending some time looking at different brands of sheets we placed an order on December 23, 2011 for our first set of Pinzon sheets in Chamois (cream colored), which arrived within a couple of weeks.The sheets were nice and soft out of the packaging. During the winter season they keep us nice and warm; whereas in the summer months they actually keep us relatively cool and don't overheat us. We enjoyed the Chamois sheets so well that we placed an order on March 16, 2017 for another set of Pinzon sheets in Aubergine (deep purple), which arrived in a couple of days.There is definitely a difference in the weave of the fabric between the two different colors. The Aubergine feels more like microfiber and the Chamois feels more like your typical flannel. Either they have changed the way that they weave the fabric over the years or there is a difference in the way that they different colors are woven. We haven't done any inquires into the weave aspect, as we've enjoyed this brand. Both sets of sheets have held up well and are combined with our other clothing when washing, nothing special required.The only negative thing that can really be said about the Chamois and Aubergine sheets is that they take up quite a bit more space in the linen closet compared to non-flannel sheets. The height of these sheets, when folded, would be similar to comparing a standard set of sheets with a secondary fitted sheet added to the stack.If you are looking for sheets to keep you warm in the cold and cool in the heat, then these sheets are definitely a good buy.If you found this review "Helpful", please click the button below.

I confess that, over ten years ago, these were my first-ever flannel sheets. I was always afraid that they would pill and be uncomfortable. Boy, was I wrong! These are wonderful, soft, quality, cotton flannel sheets that make me look forward to going to bed at night and it even harder to get out in the morning. They seemed a little expensive but I didn't think I'd get quality at any less expense. I highly recommend these if you are looking for flannel sheets! I'd give them 10 stars if I could!Below is a history of updates through the years. My original review was deleted.Update: After the second winter season of using these, they are still as soft (if not softer) as they were when new. They haven't pilled or thinned anywhere and the seams and elastic are intact and like new. I can't say enough positive things about these sheets. I've purchased sets for gifts and a second set to use when these become worn, in case they were no longer available. If you're looking for flannel sheets, give these a try. I can't see how you'd find any better, at any price.8/25/2015- Thanks to everyone for all the helpful votes! I still stand behind these flannel sheets and have repurchased them many times since this review. I love them and have used them in the winters and, sometimes, summers as well. I'm thinking the pilling some have mentioned may have something to do with the pajamas or socks people wear, or even very rough feet??? I've never had problems with any of mine and have purchased cream, chamois, and green colored sets. Just my thoughts in trying to reason why some had these problems when I never have. I'm happy that Amazon has kept these in their offerings. Happy dreaming!3-1-17- I've been sleeping on these cozy sheets for 10 years now. Not always the same ones, but different sets on different beds, through the cooler seasons for these years. I've not worn a set out yet. They've not pilled or ripped or fallen apart. NONE of them! I absolutely love these sheets and have sets put away if they ever discontinue them. I love them that much. If you love flannel sheets, try these. The cost is reasonable for the quality and I don't think you'll regret it.Pinzon 190 Gram Heavyweight Velvet Flannel Sheet Set - Queen, Thyme Green
