I only get percale as a rule but as mentioned before , I’m ordering some Bamboo sheets. Sferra or Frette are my absolute favorites in Percale because they use extra long Egyptian cotton and is crafted in Italy. I’ve had several sets of both and some are nearly 12 years old and I rotate them all. They are really wonderful. Bedding is my vice and my bed is my sanctuary. I’m living for these videos, Sarah! :)
Can you link me to their site? I’m thinking of buying heavyweight percale bedding from the good sheet I purchased ettitude bamboo cover set it got so hot like synthetic lost colour and sheen after washing
Most of my sheets right now are Egyptian Cotton - soft enough without being too expensive. Between percale and sateen I prefer percale. It's lighter and cooler and I do enjoy that bit of crispness that percale gives.
Thi shas been a great learning video for me. Thank for the mini education on the difference between sateen and percale and everything else that you touched on like egyption cotton. Who knew there was so much to learn about sheets
Hi Sarah,I just Purchased, a set of Sferra sheets 600TC in sateen. extra long Staple cotton. They are fantastic! I have other brands but nothing compares to this set from Sferra.
I bought myself some 40 year old NOS Montgomery Ward 50/50 pillowcases. FINALLY I can have the pillowcases of my childhood. And they are WRINKLE FREE, no iron percale! Thank God for polyester, too bad nobody uses it anymore.
My sister is been complaining her sheets were too warm which confused me because she had liked the fact they were cotton and in the winter. Now I’ve realized they’re sateen sheets and I need to get her at least one percale set for summer
Since we are hot sleepers, I prefer Percale to Sateen. I also like the crisp feel of Percale. I appreciate your Best Cooling Sheets video too. I think I would choose either Percale or Bamboo sheets.
What a great informative video. I never thought about how my sheets were woven. I always looked for a higher thread count for softness. I love the look of sateen , but for me percale is the way to go. I like cool and crisp in the summer. Love these videos!
Thank you for this video. I'm moving into our first home at the end of this month and I've looked into beds and pillows. Now you've given me something else to do my research on. lol. Sounds like I would go percale from the info you provided.
Percale are my faves... I love to sleep cool year 'round. Question: my sheets never seem to wear out.... I would really like a new set but I can't justify the expense when my sheets are just fine. I have had them for about 10 years... How long should they last for? I love your videos ❤️
Thank you for all the time and effort you put into researching this topic. I’m not sure if my current sheets are percale or sateen- I think sateen, but I’m not sure. My sheets are Vera Wang- Simply Vera 800 thread count sheets- they are heavy, substantial, silky feeling and super luxurious- I have bought them for three of my daughters and several grandchildren. My one son in law says they are the very best sheets he has ever slept on- my daughters love them- they launder extremely well.
I looked them up- they are Egyptian cotton and sateen- I love them. I know you can find higher thread counts, but mostly those are out of my range of affordability.
Love these very informative vids by Sarah! I probably buy way too many sheet sets looking for the perfect softness lol, but thanks to previous videos I've been able to find good sets that were worth it. Also, now I know I'm not crazy for disliking how hot I seemed to sleep under a set or two of sateen sheets I received as gifts. I love my percale sheets, especially as a hot sleeper living in Florida! I absolutely love Egyptian cotton sheets tho, do wish I could find them easier at a more friendly cost on a fixed income. Thank you for all the helpful information!
Thanks for the info. I had no idea what the differences were between percale and sateen. I think I prefer percale, but I'd have to check if that's what I actually own. I think I pay more attention to what cotton goes into my sheets--I always look for ELS cotton.
seems percale cotton-poly blend is the best choice. problem is, where the hell can one FIND percale sheets blend with a nice pattern? none of the online retailers seem to have anything interesting.
Your parachute sheets look so comfy. I want to try them. Although I’m an all year round hot sleeper so maybe some pérchale sheets would be better for me.
I purchased snowe home percale sheets an have no regrets. I wish i had bought their sateen sheet at the same time. I don't see them anymore for purchase an think they discontinued them. Once I find a good brand an know I'm getting quality i usually stick with them. I may half to venture into parachute sheet for my next purchase of sateen sheets.
Parachute sheets for me. Married to a Paratrooper so it's got to be parachutes for sheets. Like all the options Sarah discusses here though. Percale and sateen both seem awesome!
Once I’ve tried Percale sheets, I’ll never go back to Walmart’s microfiber sheets. It doesn’t retain as much heat, especially if you live in Arizona. 🥵
Great review. I generally sleep hot and mattress materials also contribute to temp controls. Sheets can support cooler surface temperature and texture. Great information for my sleep education
percale is a weave style and Egyptian cotton is a form of cotton I prefer the crisp cool sleep of percale rather than the slickness of sateen , sateen has a shine that can fade a bit with washings.
Hello Sarah, I have been looking in to purchasing bamboo sheets as my partner and I live in Florida, where it is warm and humid year-round. The combination of cooling and anti-microbial properties seem like a definite win-win for us. In my search I keep coming across the brand Cariloha, and I was wondering if you have had any experience with their products? Specifically, I’m looking at their sateen “Resort” sheets (as I do prefer the feel of sateen to percale). If you have any advice it would be greatly appreciated! All the best, - Connor
I like sateen sheets. But they stain all the time. I apply lotion on my face & hands, arms, etc., every night before I go to bed & every set of sateen sheets that I own have stains. Is this common? Will percale have the same affect?
I love crisp, cool sheets, but hate wrinkles. Anybody else here miss the prevalence of poly-cotton blends from the 70s & 80s? The were perfect! Cool, crisp, comfortable, and wrinkle-free. And they wore like iron. I still have sets that are over forty years old! I can't stand this trend of Egyptian cotton! They're the scratchiest, hottest, most uncomfortable sheets I've ever owned.
I've spent most my life sleeping on cotton sheets. However, given this video's distinctions, I would be good trying either the percale or sateen sheets. If there is somethingg better, I am all for it!

Well they should be the absolute best for what they cost! Some of the sheets they sell cost more than my bed did! 🤣
Wow I had no idea that percale is better for hot sleepers. Definitely need to check those out next time I go sheet shopping. thank you very much!
Percale look like the sheets for me. Thank you Sleepopolis!
Most of my sheets right now are Egyptian Cotton - soft enough without being too expensive. Between percale and sateen I prefer percale. It's lighter and cooler and I do enjoy that bit of crispness that percale gives.
Omg! Now I can obsess about sheets And mattresses
I prefer sateen as they have a more luxurious feel.
I've never tried percale but now you have me intrigued. I like crisp sheets that sleep cool.
I had no idea what these were. Super informative. I think I have precale. They are light and cooler which is perfect for where I live.
Thi shas been a great learning video for me. Thank for the mini education on the difference between sateen and percale and everything else that you touched on like egyption cotton. Who knew there was so much to learn about sheets

I love sateen sheets. They're definitely my favorite.
Wow...awesome video. Just in time for the summer, I need to get some cooling percale sheets! Thank you!
This was an excellent and informative video! Thanks for posting! I learned a lot!
I love these types of videos, They teach you so much, I love percale, I always sleep hot 🥵 🛌 , Thanks again for the great information!
I bought myself some 40 year old NOS Montgomery Ward 50/50 pillowcases. FINALLY I can have the pillowcases of my childhood. And they are WRINKLE FREE, no iron percale! Thank God for polyester, too bad nobody uses it anymore.
I grew up using sateen sheets, but then I slept on percale at a friend's house, fell in love with the crisp coolness, and never looked back.
I actually like both, I prefer Percale during the summer though. But I do not usually prefer one over the other.
My sister is been complaining her sheets were too warm which confused me because she had liked the fact they were cotton and in the winter. Now I’ve realized they’re sateen sheets and I need to get her at least one percale set for summer
You're a good sister, now I feel like I should do something nice for mine!
Percale sound great, I lj like the feel of a crisp sheet
I also have heard this before, but did not real have an understanding. Thanks and be safe.
Since we are hot sleepers, I prefer Percale to Sateen. I also like the crisp feel of Percale. I appreciate your Best Cooling Sheets video too. I think I would choose either Percale or Bamboo sheets.

Love my percale sheets from Brooklinen, I bought them after one of your videos.
Do you wash your sheets on the hot setting?
Glad you like them!
Thank you for this video. I'm moving into our first home at the end of this month and I've looked into beds and pillows. Now you've given me something else to do my research on. lol. Sounds like I would go percale from the info you provided.

I'm looking for new sheets and percale sounds like a great option for me. I like the idea of a really crisp sheet.

I have Brooklinen sateen and percale. Feel similar. But my bamboo cozy earths are best ;)
Interested in the percale sheets because of the breathability.. I'd love to recreate that crisp "hotel" feel ❤
Tanx for information and your time,what was the thread count? Tanx
I really like Sateen sheets. Silky feel is a must for me. Percale is nice for being lightweight and is very breathable for a hot sleeper like me
seems percale cotton-poly blend is the best choice. problem is, where the hell can one FIND percale sheets blend with a nice pattern? none of the online retailers seem to have anything interesting.
I love Egyptian cotton sheets, had them for years
Your parachute sheets look so comfy. I want to try them. Although I’m an all year round hot sleeper so maybe some pérchale sheets would be better for me.
Very informative. I like both types.

Wow.. very great review. Thank you.
sleeping cool during hot nights is a must have here, so percale might be better for me. thank you :)
Great video as always!
Any black percale fitted sheet recommendations? Not shiny
Great information 🌻
I like sateen. They just feel cozy.
Once I’ve tried Percale sheets, I’ll never go back to Walmart’s microfiber sheets. It doesn’t retain as much heat, especially if you live in Arizona. 🥵

I've always wanted to know which sheets sleep cooler
awesome & thank you for all...

I've heard of them too but unfortunately have not been able to review yet. Please let us know what you think if you try them out!
Is one more benzoyl peroxide resistant than the other?
Great video!
I love to feel cool all year round
I've never tried Persale before. It sounds like it would actually be good for me. :)
I prefer cotton percale sheets, especially after they get softer over time.
is brooklinen a good brand for sheets? Thank you.
Sure are, check out our full review - th-cam.com/video/JVA_-AZHJGY/w-d-xo.html
I'm a hot sleeper, so I just ordered some percale sheets.
How were they
I like sateen sheets. But they stain all the time. I apply lotion on my face & hands, arms, etc., every night before I go to bed & every set of sateen sheets that I own have stains. Is this common? Will percale have the same affect?
wait where did she say i can get more information???

Human: Talks about sheets
Cat: Help me, I'm stuck~
If not a cat then your furniture is becoming sentient.

I love a cool, crisp percale sheet because I am a very hot sleeper.
Yah I’m looking forward to buy a heavyweight percale quilt cover set
I’m currently sleeping in linen bedding
Percale lovely super
Percale seems better because it sleeps cooler. I tend to sleep hot.
I feel like you ripped off the other video
Once a week dang😮, I washed mine once a month lol 🤷♂️
