PROMEED 100 Pure Mulberry Silk Sheets King Set Luxury 23 Momme 4pc Silk Bed Sheet Set Includes Flat

Ever hear the expression "you get what you pay for"? It isn't always true, but with this product I think it actually is. These sheets aren't cheap. That isn't to say they're unfairly priced, to the contrary from what I can tell they actually seem to be quite reasonable for what you're getting, but they sure aren't cheap. Silk is a luxury good, whether it's in clothing, curtains, or sheets. It's a natural fiber that's secreted from a worm's butt that's unusually soft and strong, but the worms need certain environments and food to do their thing and harvesting the fibers is labor intensive. So it's nice but pricey, but if you're looking to sleep on a cloud every night it's one of your best options to consider. On top of price you also need to consider the silk type, grading, and density. Silk type is fairly straight forward. A product is either silk from silk worms that feed on Mulberry leaves or it's wholly or partially a mixture of Eri, Muga, or Tussar silk. Mulberry silk is the type most often desired for textiles because of its even softness and very long fiber length. Although Mulberry silk can be produced in a number of places, 82% of the worlds production comes from China where the industry has deep, long roots. There are supposedly ways to tell the difference between 100% Mulberry and mixtures that you can find on the internet, but I have no idea if those methods are accurate so I just trust that if the product is advertised as 100% Mulberry and the company has been around for a few years without being forced to change their claims then it's probably accurate. But maybe the best way to tell is just to feel the silk. Mulberry silk has a cool, slippery feeling kind of like water flowing over your skin and is very, very smooth. Then there's grading. Like anything organic, silk comes in a variety of qualities. Silk types go all the way from A down to F, with each lower grade being shorter fiber lengths that result in clumpier, less smooth silk. Type A silk has the longest fibers, which allow for the highest quality textiles, and the quality of the fibers range from 2 to 6. 6A silk, which is about 2% of total silk output, is the highest zero-compromises quality of silk and naturally has the highest price. Finally there's the density. Most people are probably familiar with thread count, which applies to cotton textiles. A higher thread count translates into smoother, silkier fabrics, and again higher prices. Because of differences in the materials, silk can't really have a thread count. Instead it has momme, which is a measure of the weight, and hence thickness, of the silk strands. Things like silk scarves have a very light momme of something like 10, which gives it a very light airy feel but doesn't make it very durable. So generally a higher momme is better because it's a thicker, more durable fabric, but there are limits. You wouldn't want 30 momme sheets because they'd be too thick and heavy. For bedding 20-25 momme is considered preferable. Silk isn't the only option when it comes to soft, luxury bedding. There are very nice 1200 thread count cotton sheets that feel amazing, and synthetic fabrics that are just as smooth and slippery as silk. But having said that, there's a reason that even when describing high quality cotton fabric people describe it as "silky". Silk is just the standard everything gets compared to when it comes to soft, comfortable textiles. As for synthetics, although they can be as smooth as silk they don't breathe as well, aren't as nice for your skin, nor as hypoallergenic. It's a fact that as you get older your body needs some pampering to help you get a good nights sleep and as far as I'm concerned this is a very reasonable investment towards feeling rested every day. The bottom line is if you are looking to treat yourself, don't mind the increased care required to clean and maintain them, and have the room in your budget, these sheets feel incredible. Read more

I purchased queen sized silk sheets. While they are extra work to care for and pricey, they are worth it. I appreciate that they can be machine washed on gentle cycle with silk detergent. They have to be hang dried, so I just hang them on my towel hooks in the bathroom and point a tower fan at them. They are the most comfortable sheets I have ever had. So soft and comfortable. They are a bit slippery though, but that's to be expected. They slip off the corners of my bed often. Read more

This is really good bed sheets which you should have it with pillow cover and everything matching.. but product is not worth of the price. This is not that great to spend 350+. Read more

Edit Jan 11, 2023. Just an update to my review. I have had my Promeed sheets for about a year. I am very happy with them. I wash them on gentle with a special designed-for-silk laundry soap in cold water. I hang them to dry over doors or my shower-curtain rod. They dry in a few hours. Theses sheets are amazing. I am happy that I took a chance with this company. I am revising my review. Promeed has been an excellent company to work with. When I wrote my original review, I didn't realize that everyone does not tuck their top sheet under the bottom of their mattress. I didn't understand why they would make a sheet that is too short to tuck in. They didn't realize that some people tuck their top sheet in. They made me a new top sheet that is longer once they understood why I wasn't pleased! They were under no obligation to do so. Their product was exactly as described. I plan to purchase more products from this company in the future. Old review: The top sheet is a too short to tuck in on my twin XL deep mattress. It doesn't have the traditional wider hem at the top, just a narrow hem all around. I machine washed on gentle cycle, cold water with a silk-specific laundry soap. I hung them to dry with the bathroom fan running. It takes a couple of hours for them to dry completely. The zipper on the pillowcases should be an inch longer on each side. It is difficult to put the pillow in & to remove the pillow. I am told that this is the longest zipper available on silk pillowcases. I am concerned that the zipper won't last, but my concern may be unfounded. They also have an envelope-style pillowcase available. The bottom sheet is generous in size & fits perfectly. All things considered, I love the feel of the sheets. I switched to silk sheets because of extremely dry skin. These sheets feel amazing. My skin is not as dry, my hair isn't matting as much. I hope that these sheets will last me several years. I plan to buy a higher momme sheet the next time around. I was surprised at how thin they are compared to my cotton sheets that I have always used. I have no doubt that they are the correct momme as advertised. They are smooth & shiny on one side, and a matte finish on the other side. That is correct for silk sheets. They have been corresponding with me about my review. I have every confidence that they will work with me to resolve my concerns. Read more

These have a great feel although they are slippery. However they run small for the top sheet. Read more

Gold color is very gold. Feels like I’m in Saudi Arabia. Silk sheets are -cold- when you first climb in if it’s not warm outside. Only use in summer. Otherwise quite luxurious. Read more

These sheets are very nice! So soft and hardly any wrinkling. They feel pretty durable as well. The best part is the comfort. You will not want to sleep on any other kind of sheet. Silk sheets and pillow cases are amazing! Read more

Our original order the flat sheet had a defect but they are replacing it. I don’t want that to hinder my review though, these are the best sheets I EVER had. Wife and I put this on our Sterns & Foster bed, it’s truly remarkable. The sheets are very fragile but worth every penny. I’ll be ordering these sheets in crib size for our new born. First day back from the hospital, our pre mature 5lb 5oz baby slept on it with us, she only woke up once in a 10 hour period to eat, the whole family sleeps great!! I recommend, and I’m buying more.
