Is It Worth It? The Lowdown on Luxe Sheets by Sferra - Remodelista
July 10, 2025 - A word to the wise when purchasing fine sheets: Know thy weave. Similar to their use of thread count, marketing departments have distorted our idea of what terms such as “percale” and “sateen” mean. For example, I read one comment in which a reviewer found Sferra Giza 45 Percale sheets to be too stiff.

r/Bedding on Reddit: My thoughts on Sferra Finna and Giza 45 Percale
March 26, 2024 -
I shopped around for luxury brand sheets last year and I had a lot of hesitation and went back and forth on buying them, so I thought I'd share my experience for those thinking of purchasing these expensive sheets.
I ended up purchasing both Sferra Finna and Sferra Giza 45 percale. The Sferra Finna were disappointing. While they are very comfortable, I did not find them much more comfortable than my Egyptian cotton sets from L.L Bean (although I've had some major quality control issues with LL Bean that make me wary of ever buying them again). I definitely do not think they are worth 3x the price.
However, after being skeptical of other reviews, I have to say that the Giza 45 sheets are on a different level and by far the most comfortable sheets I've ever had. They are silky smooth while still being very breathable. They are so comfortable, any other sheets I sleep with, including the Finnas, are noticeably less comfortable. I ended up buying another set, because they're just that good.
For those who can afford the $1000+ price tag, I definitely recommend the Giza 45s. However, I still think that my Egyptian cotton sheets from LL Bean are very comfortable and for those looking for something less expensive I would recommend them over the Sferra Finna's just because of the price alone.

Thanks for sharing your experience! I’m a bit more positive on the finna than you but it’s super useful to hear the experiences of people who do spring for the really high end stuff. Did you get fabric swatches before buying the sferra sheets?

Could only afford the pillow cases but they are by far the silkiest and smoothest cotton I’ve ever touched not just slept on.
I’m curious to try the full set of Giza 45 luxe sheets which is over 10k for a set

I read an article in the new Yorker that said Egyptian cotton is just like regular cotton because it has been so badly bred and farmed anymore (for at least the last 15 years). This would explain why it seems there isn't much difference in quality. So it is sort of false advertising. I bought a random towel at a Home Goods store called Feather Touch and it to this day is an anomaly of a cotton fabric and I suspect this is made from real long staple cotton. I cannot find a thing like it anywhere and the brand seems to be defunct. It is like a silky microfiber. I bought it in 2016 or 2017 which might be due to supplies of actual long staple cotton still being available. Leave it to humans to ruin something amazing from nature.

Only you can decide if it’s worth it. I have some bedding from an Italian mill that was custom made but it’s linen and there’s no doubt they are good but I still prefer the made to order Linen sheets I have from an Irish mill as the weave is far superior but the cost was higher. If you like the 45s then go for it.

r/Bedding on Reddit: St Geneve Giza 45 Sateen sheets vs others sheets?
October 5, 2023 -
I'm currently eyeing the St Geneve Giza 45 sateen sheets and I'm trying to compare them with other luxury bedding brands like from Sferra, Matouk or Frette. I’m curious about the Sferra and Frette Giza line since they seem comparable but are much more expensive than the St Geneve sheets. There’s also the Matouk Gatsby line that is percale cotton that seems great as well. In addition, I’m unsure if their slightly lower offering (Sferra Milos and Frette 600TC sateen sheets, Matouk Nocturne) is comparable to the St Geneve Giza 45.
I'm unfortunately only able to get swatches for the Sferra Giza and St geneve Giza so I’m not able to compare them all well. If anyone has tried the St Geneve Giza and compared them to the others or found something better, can you let me know?.

Now, I want to preface by saying that I haven't tried St Geneve's offerings since my local linen shop doesn't have them, nor Frette, but I can say that Sferra's Giza 45s are above and beyond pretty much anything most brands have as their 'premiere' top-shelf lines. There's just no comparison. At all. Matouk's Gatsby is nice but not as nice as you'd want at that price and pretty much all other brands that I tried with comparison to Sferra Giza 45s just could never compare or stand out as much as they did. Now, I've heard that Frette comes darn close to it with their Ultimate set, but I think even that brand falls just a tiny bit short of Sferra. St Geneve is not a bad brand and they're definitely a pretty primo one, but I think of them kind of like a Peacock Alley but perhaps a tad nicer. That's kind of how much of their products are like, and they definitely have more price-value offerings than most luxury brands, but their stuff never seems to be at the same level as the upper-level brands like Frette and Sferra---it's more about affordable luxury, if that makes sense. All of the brands and their models that you've listed are amazing for luxury bedding, but if you want top-shelf stuff I'd stick with the Sferra Giza 45s. The top one is the Giza 45 Luxe but it's insanely expensive and not for the faint of heart (or the working poor). The Giza 45 percale is the softest percale on the planet, but it definitely is pretty thin, so that turns off a lot of people. If you want a thicker sheet the Sereno would do pretty damn well for you for a heavier (but super-soft) percale, and if you want a more budget pick the Finna is pretty awesome overall but it won't come close to how soft the previous percale options are. For sateen the Giza 45 Luxe and the Sateen are A++ in terms of softness and are as good as you can get, with the Luxe being heavier and softer (I believe) and the Sateen much lighter but still unnaturally soft; the Milos, likewise, is the sateen version of the Sereno in that it's a much heavier and super-soft set, with the Giotto as a pretty decent budget pick for sateen. I'm unsure how most of the brands you listed compare to the Giza 45s from St Geneve, but I would expect that the Giza 45 from St Geneve would be comparable (hopefully), though it wouldn't surprise me at all if the Milos from Sferra is softer/better than St Geneve's highest offering Giza 45. The Sferra's are just that good and, for me at least, managed to eclipse all of the comparable luxury brands next to it, even their highest offerings. It's pretty insane (they must have an exclusive contract with the best Giza cotton growers in the Nile River Valley because something is in their sauce that nobody can match, short of perhaps Frette). Hopefully this helps you out, and while I have no doubt that St Geneve makes great stuff for the most part, their focus is mostly getting value for price rather than the highest quality that can be achieved on this earth. That's at least my observations of it from other users and their thoughts about it/impressions. If you have any more questions then feel free to ask---I'll do my best to help you out! :) And shoutout to u/Just-Another-007 for tagging me :) I appreciate it!

I haven’t tried the St Geneve Giza, but I have the st Geneve avorio pillowcases and they’re lovely (but they are silk). I love the Sferra Giza sateen. We also have the Finna, which is nice, but I prefer the Giza sateen. I haven’t had the chance to try the Matouk gatsby, but I’ve heard good things. I don’t know anything about frette, sorry!! u/SorcererLeotard is usually brilliant on all things bedding… 😁
