Where do I look for good ones that fold up square? I have Dunelm ATM and they are just cut wrong - fold into a diamond shaped mess.

The White Company bedlinen is excellent quality and launders beautifully.

I get ours from John Lewis

I don’t know about the poly cotton ones or how they fold up, but the cotton ones from King Of Cotton are fab.

I’ve John Lewis they are fine.

Have you looked in T K Maxx? I recommend it for sheets.

I haven't had any problems with M&S polycotton bedlinen.

When it somes to bedsheets Percale 500 thread count 100% Cotton bedsheets are the way to go. so nice to sleep on and they wash well, I made my own, purchased the fabric online.

Poly/Cotton bedsheets are normally 65% Polyester 35% cotton, 68 pique thread count, budget bedsheets, Big ASDA Stores ot Tescos have plenty of them in colours.

If the poly/cotton belnd is not right the sheets start pilling.

Bedeck sheets are 50/50 polycotton and have good reviews.

We have Christy sateen fitted sheets which are excellent but they also do a 48/52 polycotton range which I'd imagine are good quality.

Thanks for all the comments - I'll look at M&S, John Lewis and Bedeck.

I always buy high thread count poly cotton sheets , Percale & Egyptian cotton are great . I also like the high thread count ‘ sateen ‘ fitted sheets from Asda . I don’t think it matters where you buy them from as long as they have the above quality .

i don't get why the they need to 'fold up square'

M&S bamboo bedding is wonderful. Silky soft and warm in winter and cool in summer. I'd never buy any other type after trying these.

Patsy70 Sat 28-Jan-23 16:07:18

M&S and John Lewis.

I had looked at this type but hesitated, thanks for the thumbs up.

That was for the Bamboo sheets
