What is the Best Thread Count for Your Bed Sheet?

What is the Best Thread Count for Your Bed Sheet?

There is nothing happier than jumping on a bed covered with high-quality sheets. High-quality bed sheets ensure a good night’s sleep; therefore, the quality should not be compromised on. Customers believe that a high-quality bed sheet with a higher thread count can help make the bed more comfortable.

So, what is the Thread Count?

Thread count is defined as the number of threads in one square inch of fabric, and is usually used to measure the quality of bed sheets. This is the number of threads woven in the fabric horizontally and vertically. To increase the thread count, weave more threads into one square inch of fabric.

You can think of a duvet cover as a large pillowcase for the duvet. Duvets are luxurious because they can be easily put on and taken off at any time to quickly change the style. In addition, duvet covers are a good way to create a relaxing atmosphere. For example, suppose you want to spend a sultry night at home. In this case, we recommend using Hotel Collection 100% cotton Percale Duvet Cover Set to create an atmosphere. In addition, you can also simulate the feeling of a beach vacation by adding super soft 400 Thread Count Sateen duvet duvets, and change your mood quickly as well.

The myth of “the higher the number of threads, the better the sheets”:

When choosing the right bed sheet, people will consider the fabric thread count. This is entirely due to myths fabricated by bedding manufacturers starting as a marketing plan. These manufacturers began to twist 2-3 weaker threads together to increase the thread count. They claim that higher line counts equate to “higher quality” in order to increase sales and sell their products at unreasonably higher prices. This kind of marketing plan is so ingrained among consumers that the number of lines is now one of the main factors to consider when buying new bedding.

Disadvantages of high thread count:

A higher thread count does not necessarily mean better quality; there is an optimal position to target. A thread count that is too low will cause the fabric to be not soft enough, but a thread count that is too high will cause the fabric to become too hard or too rough. A higher thread count may cause the following problems instead of improving the quality of the paper;

(i) Heavier materials:

The beauty of a duvet cover is the versatility it provides throughout the year. For example, suppose you live in a warm climate and struggle with an endless loop of taking off your quilt every night and then putting it back in bed in the morning. You can sleep on a plush duvet alone, instead of a quilt as a luxurious and lightweight quilt cover; this will effortlessly keep you cool while impressing guests with your elegant charm.

(ii) Coarse sheets:

When the thread count is too high, the threads will knit tightly together, causing the fabric to become stiff. After a long and tiring day, no one wants to sleep on hard and rough sheets.

(iii) Cheap quality cotton:

In order to reduce the cost of manufacturing high-threat-value products, manufacturers use lower-strength and cheaper cotton yarn. This reduces the quality of the paper set while preserving its fraudulent “higher quality” name tags and expensive prices.

Optimal number of threads:

So, is there a number of threads that can really improve the quality of bedding? For percale beddings, thread count between 200 and 300 is ideal. For sateen sheets, looking for sheets with thread count between 300 and 600. Sheets with a higher thread count will not always improve the quality of the bedding, but will make the sheets heavier and possibly rougher. When there are more threads, they must be woven tightly, which results in a smaller space between the threads. The smaller the space between the threads, the less airflow, which reduces the breath ability of the fabric unless very thin threads are used, such as those made of 100% extra-long staple combed cotton. With 300-400 thread count beddings, you can achieve the perfect softness, comfort and luxury that your body needs to rest.
