"This set is really soft. you can't beat Egyptian cotton...much, much better than Supima. I purchased this set because our new mattress was a lot deeper than the old one and the corners on these sheets fit fine. Be careful if you choose the Ivory, its more of a Vanilla/Cream colour.
One niggle I have with Northern Nights is the way they put elastic all round the fitted sheets instead of part way. Makes it difficult to hang dry. Hence 4 stars."
