These sheets are coarse, rough and scratchy and definitely not bamboo. Green sheets are not the same colour shown online. Label on package says "Bamboo Rayon" which does not match online description. No free returns so buyer beware. You have to apply for approval to return and then if they approve, you have to pay for postage. So annoyed by false advertising that I'm going to pay the huge shipping fee from Canada just to save the difference. Do not buy these sheets.

I had heard so many good things about Hotel Direct sheets, and thought I was ordering directly from the company (as opposed to a third party seller). These sheets are NOT bamboo. They are unnaturally thick, heavy, and not soft at all. I thought maybe I needed to wash them once, but they did not get any softer (and wrinkle horribly), and the slight chemical scent is still there. And now, since I washed them, I cannot return for anything more than a partial refund (and I would have to assume the cost of shipping back to the US, so it's not even worth it). I can't believe the original Hotel Direct sheets are these sheets, considering the amazing reviews for Hotel Direct. I've had high quality bamboo sheets in the past (at double the price of these), so I'm aware of how they should feel and look. I would not recommend and feel I've been duped by Amazon/the seller. I've since purchased the microfiber sheets from Bare Home on Amazon; while they're not bamboo, they are buttery soft, lightweight, cooling, and don't wrinkle. And they're half the price!!Shoppers, please do not order the sheets from MG Direct. I'm going to donate these sheets, but am so annoyed that I wasted $100 on them.

Returned one other set because you could see the difference. I wish I would have returned both. First night sleeping in them was so uncomfortable. Not what I'm used to with bamboo sheets. A complete waste of money.

I've seen some reviews that mention 'rough' and 'scratchy'. I'm pretty sure they did not get the same sheet sets that I've bought. We purchased a new bed a little over a year ago and wanted to try bamboo sheets because we heard that they're cool. It gets hot and humid in Hawaii and I'm a hot sleeper. The mattress company tried to sell us their bamboo sheets, but they were $200. $100 if we bought with the bed. We declined and purchased a bamboo sheet set from 'Cosy House'. They were a disappointment. Not at all what I expected from bamboo sheets. 400 threadcount cotton is more comfortable than those.Then I saw these on Amazon. They were less than the cost of the sheets at the bed company (if we bought with the bed). I read the reviews and decided to try them.The sheets are very soft, smooth and are shiny on one side. They are HEAVY! Much heavier than cotton. Despite their weight, they are VERY cool to sleep on and under. If you dry them in a dryer, they come out wrinkle free. My wife washes the sheets a couple times a week and likes to hang dry the laundry, but even though it comes off the line with wrinkles from the clothespins, the wrinkles disappear after the first night's sleep. You cannot feel the wrinkles even on the first night's sleep.Our daughter has a queen size bed just like ours (our old bed actually) and she had a favorite sheet set. One day, we found that she made her bed with our spare HSD bamboo set (shucks! she found them!). Well... when my wife told her to strip the bedding so that she could wash the sheets our daughter replied. "I don't want you to wash the sheets! You're going to make my bed with the old sheets!". Oh well... check Amazon for a special offer at Hotel Sheets Direct (again)!They are strong and durable. When I make the bed, I deliberately tug on the corners hard to pull out the wrinkles (from line drying and to see if the sheets feel like they'll tear). They don't even come close to tearing. I'm pretty sure I would tear most cotton sheets.I perspire when I sleep. My perspiration stains most pillowcases. These pillowcases have not stained at all. Maybe because my wife washes them every other day. But that's a testament of how durable the material is too! You can't tell that (my) pillowcase has been washed twice as much as the sheets. The other thing I like about the pillowcases is that it's not just a 'sleeve' for the pillow. There's a pocket on the opening end of the pillowcase that you can tuck the pillow into. This hides the end of the pillow (in my case, the extra pillowcase to absorb my sweat). It's just a nice detail that I have not seen often.I've seen reviews that wish the company made duvet covers. They do! I purchased a duvet cover with a pair of sham covers and am very happy with them. The quality of these products are the same as the sheets.I also saw a review that said that the customer was charged a customs fee. I've purchased five sheet sets and a duvet / sham set (not because they've worn out or tore; I took advantage of special offers that were too good to pass up). For all six sets, I was never charged any customs fee and I'll remind you, we live in Hawaii. Amazon is our best friend!The company ships the sheets very quickly after you place the order. If you're patient, they have offers that are ridiculously good. You can get a set of these luxurious sheets for less that a cheap set of cotton/poly sheets at Walmart! ....But you have to be patient and watch for the specials...I hope this review helps any of you that are one the fence about buying these sheets. I CANNOT recommend them highly enough! We will sleep on nothing else... ever again...!!!

I think I’ve owned these long enough to provide a review. First, I “discovered” bamboo sheets while trying to find ways to make my sleep cooler. As a woman of a certain age, the cooler the better. I’ve been a sheet snob for years, swearing by 100% cotton and high thread count. In my younger years, I had no problem dropping $150 on a set of sheets. Older, wiser, now, not so much.I read reviews, asked friends who had bamboo sheets and decided to take the plunge.I am SO. GLAD. I did.These have to be the softest sheets I have ever had the pleasure to sleep on. I could not believe how soft. I actually brought a pillow case to work to show my co-workers just how soft. And how utterly gorgeous the fabric is.And yes, they ARE cooler than regular cotton sheets. That’s not to say they don’t get warm, but they cool down fast. So if you get up to get a drink of water, your spot will be cool upon return. I still flip my pillow during the night, but again, it’s always nice and cool on the other side. They are gorgeous sheets, almost looking like liquid when they “pool” on the mattress, whether you’re making the bed or folding them or just getting out of bed.As far as fitting the mattress, I have a 10 inch mattress with a 2 inch topper and they are fine, fit perfectly.I love these sheets so much, I bought a second set as soon as they were in stock again.Now, it’s not 100% perfect. They do stain easily. So if you sweat a lot, that and simple natural body oils will stain these sheets. It is very obvious on the purple sheets, which is the first color I got (which by the way, that purple is decadent. ) I first noticed it on my husbands pillow. What I did was soak them in Oxy and laundry detergent. Didn’t get them 100% stain free but it helped. Now I simply don’t dry the pillow cases, I air dry them. Instructions do say that you can use Dawn dish soap or Oxy if they are stained. I don’t know about you, but that is way too much work for sheets. I do add Oxy to the laundry but I don’t pre-soak the sheets. The staining will show less on a lighter color, which is what I got for the second set.The other “negative” I have seen in the reviews is wrinkling. Yes, they wrinkle, a lot. If you don’t take them out of the dryer promptly and either fold or make up the bed, they will wrinkle. However, since I am sleeping on them, not wearing them, I honestly do not care. But since it is something I saw in other reviews, I felt it important to include.As for service, I did reach out to the Hotel Sheets Direct customer service when I couldn’t find a queen set in ANY color. They responded in a timely manner that they would have stock back within a week or so, which was the case and I ordered immediately. Price-wise, these seem to be the best value/price for these types of sheets.My only worry is pilling. I seem to have very bad luck with supposed high quality sheets pilling. But I am following the instructions, cold water, delicate cycle (most of the time) no fabric softener or dryer sheets and so far, so good.Overall, these are a win-win for me. I now use my cotton sheets to cover my sectional (dogs shed a lot.) I will probably never go back to cotton sheets again. Even with the staining, these are 5 star sheets, in my opinion. Take a chance, you won’t be sorry!
