Do you understand that in your bed a whole third of your life? It is a lot of time, and, knowing this, it would not be sensible to make sure that you will be as comfortable as possible while you are there? We all slept on prickly sheets or those that are so thin that you can almost see them. But for a good night’s rest, a certain level of comfort is required, which simply cannot be ensured by poor quality bedding.
Is it time for you to buy new ones?
Size matters
If you are over twenty years old, you will remember that the beds were only standard sizes. You probably had a double, double, queen or king. But with today's improvements in mattresses, you may have a king-size bed, but standard box sheets may not fit her. What for? Because mattress manufacturers have significantly improved mattresses, including such things as pillows for pillows and extra thickness.
Knowing this, you will have to take care of buying bedding, otherwise you may have sheets that will not be enough to wrap around the edges or do, but will constantly slip away.
Each sheet package provides accurate sheet measurements, so it’s important to pay attention to them. Measure your mattress before purchase so that you are ready to make a decision. In other words, if you have a queen-sized bed that has a pillow on both sides of the mattress, you may have to buy sheets with a king.
Number of threads
Have you ever had the privilege of plunging into a soft bed and wondering how the world was so comfortable? Was it a new kind of fabric softener? Completely worn in the mattress? In all likelihood, these were sheets!
The number of threads is what will determine how soft your sheets are - the higher the number of threads, the more comfortable your sheets. Sometimes called TPI, this factor measures how many threads are used per square inch of fabric. They can range from about 150 to a thousand. In general, you should always avoid sheets that have a lower rate than 200, because they will not feel good on your skin, but prickly and uncomfortable. If you buy sheets with the number of threads more than 250, you should sleep well at night.
material
The type of fabric you choose when purchasing sheets will have a huge impact on your level of comfort. And with so much material available, you have to think a lot about what type of sleep you desire. The most popular are cotton, flannel, silk and satin.
Cotton is by far the most popular because it is cool and cool in summer in winter (although they must first be warmed in winter). There is something about going to bed with high-quality cotton sheets! In addition to convenience, manufacturers tend to produce more styles and colors (than other types of sheets) to keep up with consumer demand.
Winter is simply not complete without warm flannel sheets. Most people use flannel sheets in the cold months because they will become “sweaty” in the hot ones. In addition, many manufacturers began to produce flannel blankets and blankets in accordance with the drawings on the sheets.
Finally, a silk or satin pair of sheets is considered the most luxurious. They are silky soft and will not let you sweat in the summer. You can literally casual in bed, and if you have a satin or silk pillowcase, put your head in pure luxury. The only disadvantage of satin and silk sheets is that they tend to slide off the bed if they are not installed properly.
And what about you? Are you a cotton man or silk? Do you want the counting of frivolous threads to be or make 250? Think about your options carefully before you buy bedding, and then enjoy your choice!
