I had a couple of white fitted sheets that were quite old; they had become more of a grey than white. I knew it was defiantly time to buy more sheets.

I have bought a couple of these fitted double sheets, as well as single sized ones for my children's beds. I love fitted sheets because they hug the corners of your bed and no matter how much you fidget (this isn't a dig at my fiancé honest!!) they do not come off. I have yet to manage to work out the proper way to fold a fitted sheet though, I tend to give it a good shot then just store it away in a cupboard, I also do not bother to iron sheets as no one is going to be scoring me on how flat and creaseless my sheets are. These do claim to need a minimum of ironing which is always good in my book as I hate ironing with a passion. I have bought these sheets from Debenhams; I don't often buy from there as I find them wildly expensive, I also find a lot of their clothes very dated but this isn't a review of Debenhams.

I paid £9 for my double sheets and they were not packaged in any amazing way. There was a plastic wrapping bag with the sheet itself wrapped around a cardboard square to keep the shape. I wouldn't expect any other kind of wrapping, this works with sheets. The corners are elasticated and these have not loosened any after use or washing. I am pleased about this as some of the cheaper versions can become quite slack and no better than a normal flat sheet. You can machine wash and tumble dry these sheets, I don't use a tumble dryer so cannot comment on this but putting it through the washing machine or washing by hand it fine.

The sheets themselves are smooth and there is no bobbling or fading that I have noticed. I have these in pink and cream and they are as good as they were when I bought them. For the price, these have been remarkably good, I would defiantly buy these again.
