sealy sheets - mixed review

My husband brought home some Sealy sheets from JCPenney a few months back. At first, I loved them. They have these cool stretchy side panels made of a cotton/spandex blend. We have a king sized bed, and more than once, we’ve put the fitted sheet on the wrong way, and not discovered it til we went to put down the other 2 corners. With these stretchy side panels, it was really easy to tell how the fitted sheet should go on. I also loved how the sheets felt - they’re only a 330 thread count, but they felt like a much higher thread count sheet. We have a pillowtop mattress, and these sheets were also able to accomodate its height. Lastly, they’re a pretty green sage color, that my husband picked out all by himself!

Fast forward to now…after a few months of using the sheets, they’re starting to pill. I’ve never had any sheets that started to pill, and I can’t stand how it feels. The sheets weren’t exactly cheap, at $70 for the set, on sale, and I’m disappointed that they didn’t hold up. Thumbs down on these sheets!

   […] Tonight’s story is about Colleen’s newest baby, the BuyMeBlog. I like all of her blogs, and this one is no exception. She talks about good deals and deals gone wrong with her typical style and panache. Just this week, she’s dissed some sheets, and cut some steak. […]

   Thank you! I have been looking at these sheets. I hate sheets that pill so I won’t be investing in these.

   What does “starting to pill” mean? I’ve never heard of a sheet “pilling” before.
