REVIEW: Linen sheets | Brooklinen vs Sijo vs Target (yes Target!)
Will another brand unseat my favorite linen sheets from Brooklinen? I review linen sheets from SIJO and Casaluna. And yes, the latter brand is from Target.
For BedJet users, linen tends to have a loose weave: more air on your feet rather than evenly distributed. How do these brands compare?

Wear socks 🤷🏼🤣
Do you want to see your cloud sheet?
I have the Lululinens Supercool comforter and sheet and makes a big difference.
You've pushed me to try these. I'm an extremely hot sleeper. I need to know what a "bed jet" is. I subscribed to learn more from you. Great video!
It’s easy to sew 2 streets together to make a “cloud” sheet - 1 with tighter weave for the top and 1 for the bottom with a looser weave. You can also sew the layers together in “spots” (reinforced or using 2 Cl buttons if you want a baffle effect. I don’t have an blower but I do sew :-)
They dont come in Full size 🥲
How do you wash a heavy blanket? Don’t think your washer will be happy with trying to spin it!
No, just no. Heat up your bed and scorch your sheet?
Worst company ever!!!! Spent $350 and they never shipped my order!!! Got ripped off!!!
I was wondering how this would work with a cat. I think my cat will keep me up all night going after the sheets. LOL
Thank you! I'm swedish and have been wondering for quite some time now about the words for this in english. Here in Sweden it seems to be mostly common with duvet and duvet covers. I never new anything else exept a top sheet with a blanket on. But that has always seemed very old fashioned to me. Something people used a long time ago. To put it inside I have always just taken a big breath, put my hands in the two top holes (mostly the duvet covers hav a big hole at the bottom and tvo small holes in the top corners) and just taken the duvet corners, dragging it inside and shake. Then to get it even you have to shake more times from different angles. Some duvets are pretty good at staying put but some, like the ones with down needs to be shaken fluffy every night. At least for my taste. Now I have a wool duvet that stays put well. I think if you sleep in one position all night a comforter with top sheet will be good but if you crawl around, turning, twisting then a duvet is better.
Your video is still helping us newbies to Bedjet! I want to buy a bedjet, but honestly, $130 for a cheap cotton double sheet is ridiculous. I am totally going to DIY a bedjet cover.
I would buy this for 49.99 but not 81
Thanks for the tip. It’s been a few years, are you still using this system and cooling sheet hack? Summer is around the corner and here in Los Angeles it gets hot, humid and our nights can be unbearable. After trying everything from linen sheets and duvets to cooling mattress pads, I’m about ready to try out some bed cooling tech and this is the most affordable option. Would you recommend it?
Yes, years on, I’m still using my BedJet plus duvet sheet hack. My favorite fibers for sheets/duvets are linen or hemp. Good luck staying cool!
I like you!
I happen to sleep two ways, either extremely hot and I sweat but I can still sleep for the most part even if just a little uncomfortable, but I cant go to sleep without a fan blowing on my head. The other way I sleep is extremely cold, where I sweat, it becomes super cold and I cant get back to sleep cause Im SOAKING WET and shivering. I wont need any cloud sheets personally, but I am interested in how to place the nozzle to prevent my feet or legs to being too cold. I think if the air was around mid bed area, like where my butt is, would be good flow. In summer I prefer satin like sheets, cause it keeps me cool and is good for the skin and hair. In winter I like cotton or flannel sheets.
Are you getting too hot with cotton/flannel? If so, try linen or hemp, which manages heat/sweat so much better. Good luck staying cool.
Thank you for the information I'm currently, now as I understand, using a Sheet, a quilt and a blanket. I have the house pretty cold, but I sweat like crazy...but I also hate feeling the fan's breeze pierce through the sheet alone and how light weight it feels. I am a total mess and I need to figure this out and have just 1 or 2 (sheet+something) items.
I set my JetBed fan around 25% so air is there, but not breezy. With heavier blankets/quilts, it feels even less breezy. Make sure your initial layer (eg. sheets or duvet) is made of a good heat/moisture modulating fiber like linen, hemp, or lyocell. (NOT cotton.)
Very Helpful 😊
Glad it was helpful!
Actually the direction doesn't matter. it's the blade orientation that's the important part. My winter setting is clockwise and my summer is counterclockwise.
Interesting that some fans don’t follow the same blade orientation standard
Any mattress topper recommendations? I need a soft mattress but memory foam is too hot. I tried latex but it seemed just as hot and still too firm...
I sleep on the Bear ProTopper. Unfortunately, it is made of memory foam... Although it's supposed to be cooling, it's not... Because of that, I don't think I made of video, but here's the blog post: comfortsleepsanctuary.com/product-review/bear-protopper/
I have a comforter made of rayon from bamboo. I thought it was supposed to keep me cool but it doesn't really. How does lyocel stack up against rayon?
Lyocell behaves like rayon; both are derived from wood pulp. Perhaps try linen or hemp?
I bought one yesterday. It arrives tomorrow. How has it held up? I bought the cozy earth bamboo comforter a month ago. Can't wait to compare them.
To be honest, I've been concerned about "cat claw" damage and have used my "tougher" linen quilt almost exclusively (winter or summer!) Should be fine in a pet-free home (but that's no fun!)
Glorious.
I knew this video had to exist somewhere, and sure enough here it is
I'm feeling at desparation point right now, so I'm glad I found your video even though its a bit long and slow. I didn't think it could be done with something as simple as a duvet cover. I'd imagine you making a cloud sheet yourself, since you seem to know a lot about textiles and fabrics. I made my own bedjet and £80 seems like an awlful lot of money for a bedsheet. I just need a few weeks of good sleep to figure out why my bed gets so hot.
Poor experiment design, but thanks for trying. The fringe fibers are directional. I've owned 3 chenille blankets over the years, and only one end of tassels ever gets tangled on any of them - the other end always stays straight.
Maybe you can use a duvet cover Instead of buying their sheet.
I did just that! (See my other videos) Haven't used their sheet since!
Have you tried using the bed jet on the side of your bed so your feet don't get cold? Would this work better with your weighted blanket, too?
Haven't tried it on the side... If my feet get too cold I tend to curl up in a ball, or move my feet away from the middle.
Do you use this with the bedjet? If so, how does the pair work together?
Yes, I definitely use weighted blankets with the BedJet. You do, however, need to turn up the fan speed.
swag 😻
Thanks for the review! And your cat is so cute ❤
As a 45 bachelor man your video was very helpful. I had no idea there is so many types of bedding covers. I'm satisfied with my new bedding cover. If you ever need help on home depot type of stuff I'll be more than happy to help you lol. Thank you so much Liz.
Well. I have two fans, and it's not clockwise or counter-clockwise since they are opposite. It's about the blades; do they cut up (rotate with the higher side gong first) or cut down? Cut up for cooling, cut down for warming.
It was simple with one of my fans since the switch going up or down is consistent with the air flow, but the other one has a side to side switch.
No hoom?
Very useful information
Glad you liked it
I can’t help but wonder if sleeping on top of the bedjet sheet would feel better than sleeping underneath it? It seems that the air would make its way around you escaping just enough to keep you cooler instead of having the sheet hover over your body.
You are supposed to lay on top of Cloud sheet (or duvet cover in this case) that attached to Bedjet machine. Duvet cover is acting like a bed sheet and it goes on between mattress and your body.
Where ever did you see that?! The Cloud Sheet goes on top of the user in every video I've seen.
Cloud sheet is intended as a "top sheet" to lie above you, however, I've never tried it as a bottom sheet...
Do you have a review comparing their other models?
So far, just the one model... As it "works" I haven't yet felt the need to purchase one of the bigger models.
As I understand it, hemp linen is more durable than flax linen thanks to the length of the fibers. Flax plants only grow up to 3' tall, while hemp can easily reach 6' or more. Longer stalk = longer fibers = stronger threads = more durable fabric. Otherwise, hemp linen has all the same characteristics as flax linen w/r/t breathability, abosorption/moisture release, soil resistance, etc. Meaning you'll get the same sleep comfort from hemp linen, with probably a longer useful life.
Thanks, did not know that about hemp. Cheers!
I fought for months just to have the washing machine ajar after laundry, and my husband finally listened to me!
Glad I was helpful. 😀
@@ComfortSleepSanctuary Thank you!
what is difference between quilt and comforter? is quilt less warm than comfortable? Do quilt need a cover?
Neither quilts nor comforters "need" a cover, but some prefer to cover the comforter for either aesthetics or easier cleaning. Quilts are usually thinner, stuffed with a thinner--but denser--"batting"; while comforters are puffier with looser fill. They may be equally warm, based on the total weight and type of stuffing/batting.
It does stay cool through the night, wish they had the queen 12 lbs in the bamboo.
Thanks,Theseasonorg explains the whole bible God bless
Silk is a protein, so it denatures and loses its sheen in hot water. If your silk is still shiny after a hot water wash, then it means it is fraudulently labeled and is actually synthetic.
Not a cat person at all. But that cat is cute as hek lol.
They are all my sweeties 😇
I guess they didn't like this review because there's no sound anymore...
You scared me when I read this, but fortunately, the audio is working fine. ;-)
What’s your opinion on the optional extended 4-year warranty through mulberry? Is it worth it
I'm not familiar with the extended warranty, however, I generally avoid them anyway. I will say I've had my BedJet for several years now and it's still going strong!
How about the Vesta Cooling silk blanket with tencel out side?
Thanks! Adding it to my "list". ;-)
What do you think of Mulberry silk bedding ?
I love silk... but as it's, ahem, a bit pricey, I go with silk pillowcases.
How do you sleep cool in the winter without the bedding feeling way too cold and getting freezing. For example night sweats in the winter if that makes sense. Would wool be better ?
Good question! It's definitely a balance. I tend to err on the side of being cold. If I'm chilled, I'll run my BedJet for 30 minutes on high. Otherwise, it runs on cool throughout the night, even in winter. I sleep under a duvet cover (basically two sheets) and a light quilt. As my feet tend to get cold, I dress in socks, shorts and a light tee (made of modal). Wool is a great fabric... Experiment with a "thin" wool blanket first
@@ComfortSleepSanctuary Thankyou so much
