Okay, so I finally got these 100% cotton fitted sheets after reading mixed reviews. Here's my real talk review after a month of use!
First off - YES, they're actually 100% cotton (I did the burn test lol). The fabric is surprisingly sturdy and breathable. No weird chemical smell either.
The deep pockets? LIFE SAVER for my dorm mattress. No more waking up to a popped-off sheet! Though my roommate with a thicker mattress says it's a bit tight on hers.
Washing update: They did shrink about an inch after the first wash (cold water, low dry). But now they fit even better? Kinda weird but I'll take it.
Softness level: Not luxury hotel soft, but gets nicer with each wash. Definitely not scratchy like some reviews said - maybe they got a bad batch?
Bonus points: The white color stayed bright through multiple washes (I use oxyclean). No pilling yet either!
Would I buy again? For the price? Absolutely. They're simple, durable, and actually stay put all night. College me approves!
