Comments on J's review of Bamboo Twill Sheet Set
too much hype
Picked these up the other day. Slept on them OK last night. They feel very different than regular 'sheets'. More like you're sleeping under a piece of cloth than a sheet - took a while to get used to. I'm not used to a sheet that wants to cling to you all the time.
The bad - mail thing is they are too short. the flat sheet leaves only about 2" to tuck under the mattress. I kept having to get up in the middle of the night to re-make the bed. They are going back to the store for this reason alone. Plus, they wrinkle worse than any shirt you've ever seen. Unless you want to live with wrinkles or iron your sheets, well...
I'm also confused about the 'green' environmental tag bamboo sheets are getting. bamboo is certainly a better option for wood products. but for cloth? Isn't cotton renewable as well? I'm confused.
If you wanna feel like you're sleeping under a big t-shirt and don't mind a lot of ironing, then go for it. Otherwise, stick with your standard cotton sheets. I was under impressed.
