Was wondering if anyone had tried these out. I bought some flannel sheets from target last year and they didn’t hold up the best as far as softness so was looking at other options. Saw the Flannel by Portugal in store but I can barely get a feel on them without buying them. Thanks I’m advance!
Get 'em now $19.97 for Queen. Five more or less for King and Full. Price sign has an asterisk too. Best sheets the missus and I have had in a long time. Soft and comfy. Cheap too. Just got two more sets for us and one for the young'un.
Like socks somehow all my pillowcases have sprouted legs and walked off so it's time to get a few new sets.
I don't need the crazy 1000 thread count sets but the $21.99 sets are very tempting although the price point has me hesitant. How's everyone's experience purchasing bed linen from Costco, how do they wash and hold up?
Where can I buy thick, good quality, 100% cotton, Canadian-made flannel sheets? I recently bought some from Eddie Bauer (made in India) but am disappointed at how thin they are - I'll be returning them.
I should have asked here first! :)
Needing a queen sized set. What are your favorite brands/thread counts? How is the Kirkland Signature set?
We got some of the bamboo sheets several months ago.
We can’t stand them. They feel really soft, but they don’t breath and get really hot. We don’t use them anymore.
Just washed and made up my queen bed with my new Kirkland Signature 680 thread count 100% cotton sheet set (with four cases). They feel thick, slick and luxurious and had minimal creasing out of the dryer due to "Crease Control" technology. The corners have "GRIPON" corner fit technology that adds reinforcing elastic to keep the corners from shifting. A nice touch is the care tag is on the end of the short side so you know how to orient the fitted sheet. I bought them when they were $20 off a month or so ago. No regrets!

I live in Massachusetts, and have been trying to buy good flannel sheets for a few years. I keep getting ones that are either too thin or pill like crazy. I'm willing to deal with lint shedding in the first few washes, and don't mind spending some (real) money. Thanks!
My wife and I got some new sheets for our wedding, and originally was going to get two sets of LL Bean until we saw the price of the Costco sheets, so we decided to get one of each and compare. Our goal was a good set that would feel soft and cozy, breathable/cooling, and would last us a while. Here's our current thoughts 6 months into rotating between the two sets:
LL Bean ($150ish): 280 Thread-Count Pima Cotton Percale Sheet Set
Costco ($70): Kirkland Signature 680 Thread Count Set
Cooling: The LL Bean sheets were by far a lot cooler than the Kirkland sheets, but the Kirkland sheets were "cool enough". I prefer the LL Bean coolness, my wife prefers the Kirkland sheets. Both sheets were cooler than most other cheap sets we've both had in the past. Both warm up over time as you would expect for a sheet without overheating myself. For me, LL Bean takes the win.
Softness: The Kirkland overall felt like it has been consistently softer than the LL Bean, but the LL Bean is still incredibly comfy. Edge goes to Kirkland, but neither were disappointing!
Durability: Honestly, both feel very durable so far. They both follow same routine care, neither have tears or lasting stains. Tie
Other Information: This could have been in durability, but I think it was better to discuss separately. The Kirkland has a pretty thickly reinforced edging on the fitted sheet, and I'm very curious on how well this will hold up over time. Neither LL Bean nor Kirkland feel like the edges are going to rip anytime soon, and they both have enough room for decently thick mattress toppers, but I really enjoy just how beefed up the edges are for the Kirkland sheet.
LL Bean also has multiple color options that Kirkland does not, so if you are concerned about diversifying colors, LL Bean wins that one. We got a navy Kirkland set and the Lake Blue LL Bean set (we would have gone mid-blue if we planned to get the Kirkland set).
Personal Verdict: Both are great 6 months into use and fulfill their purposes wonderfully. The price difference is pretty hefty, so unless you need the coolest-feeling sheets out there the Kirkland ones are no issue for myself. As long as they both hold up for the next few years, we will most likely get the Kirkland ones again over the LL Bean due to the price effectiveness. This is only for comparing cotton sheets with a primary focus on cooling and durability, so feel free to discuss!
tl;dr both are cooling, comfortable, and durable. Kirkland is better price to performance, but LL Bean has more colors and is more cooling.
Hi folks
I used to always get my sheets at the bay before they closed. Now that they have closed… where are you buying your sheets?
I am ideally looking for somewhere I can go in person to buy them, but not opposed to online if they have a good return policy lol.
Thank you!
