Brooklinen's Luxe Sateen Core Sheet Set ranks first because it combines the highest published thread count in this list, 495, with long-staple cotton, a Portuguese mill and a price that starts at $169 for a Twin. Brooklinen describes a 4-over-1 sateen weave with a smooth finish and says the set is OEKO-TEX STANDARD 100 certified. The set includes a flat sheet, a fitted sheet and two pillowcases, and the fitted sheet is cut for mattresses up to 16 inches deep, with long and short side tags that make bed-making quicker. Brooklinen accepts most returns within 365 days, though it deducts a $9.95 fee. The trade-offs are that the cotton is not organic, and sateen holds more warmth than percale or lyocell, so hot sleepers may prefer another fabric. Brooklinen also sells Classic Percale sets from $159 if you want a crisper feel. We compared documented features and published prices and did not run sleep tests.
