I ordered this because its the most reviewed satin bedding on amazon, not even worth $12
UPDATE: ripped after roughly 4 washes, even though I always air dried them to be careful. I ended up returning them.
I've owned several silk and satin pillowcases over the years but my dream has always been to have a set of silk sheets. As a college student that's not quite realistic for me (yet) so I decided to go on the hunt for a decent set of satin ones.
Now don't get me wrong, I adore silk, but satin is appealing in its own ways. It ages better (even when you religiously hand wash your silk) has more slip (less damage over night to your hair and less wrinkles on our face for us stomach and side sleepers) and the way it feels grows on you once you stop comparing it to silk. I wouldn't say silk feels better than high quality satin per se, because its just a different feel altogether.
But these sheets....boy. I had realistic expectations, but the quality isn't even worth $25 - and this is coming from someone who has no issue paying double that for one pillow case. I can confidently say these cost no more than $9 to manufacturer in china. They are plastic, sure they're shiny....but this is the worst satin I have ever felt. I have NO IDEA how this product has so many positive reviews, I'm starting to think I received an entirely different set of sheets.
