I want to purchase a linen set for my master from their site. Anyone with experience? How do they wash, wear, comfortable?

I got a set this summer. Looks beautiful, washed beautifully, very soft. Can't comment to longevity though.

I bought the one with the fancy design on one side.
Was really uncomfortable, so I don't use it. But if you buy the linen that just has the regular material all over I'm sure will be comfortable

We've had them and are happy with them. The microfiber (which I have) is totally comfortable, but I find I get hot with it (in general I don't sleep with a heavy blanket, wear summer pajamas in the winter...)

Same experience. Looks nice 3.5 years later, but is highly uncomfortable.

The regular cotton ones washed well and it's still in great condition after my kids took it to sleep away camp.

I had one bad experience with their linen (quickly got all pimply) - but they apologized and took it back immediately. They assured me that it was a uniquely bad batch, and the same thing would not happen with another set. I have had only good experience with all their other linen, and I recommend them without reservation.

I recommend their Better Bed Collection 300 thread count sateen blend that runs $109-$119.
It's not 100% cotton and the first time I bought it I didn't realize that. But the linen is soft, well constructed and lasts, so I've bought more since.

I prefer the 300 count percale cotton blend over the 100% cotton because of the ironing factor. I understand they are probably not as soft as the cotton ones, my concern was the pimpling. Am I understanding correctly that they don't pimple? And are they really wrinkle free?

No pimples on the one I wrote above. I used the set for 2 years before I found out it wasn't all cotton.

the linens lasted beautifully. no complaints about the fabric.

the elastic deteriorated pretty quickly on the sheets. I use sheet suspenders and no complaints anymore.

Bumping this because I wanted to try linen for the master bathroom. I’m very picky when it comes to linen so I always spent more and bought from elegant linen or someplace similar.
I’ve bought from close out connection for my kids room and it okay... but I really need that smooth softness for my own bed.
Will I be happy with close out connection linen for 48” beds?
I love saving $$$!
Or maybe someone tried out something amazing from amazon?

I'm happy with the linen on 48" bed. By second wash and dry it was plenty soft.
I tried an Amazon set recommended here and and one on Overstock. Amazon was not soft at all and wrinkled like crazy and they took it back. Overstock was very soft but needed to be ironed every time so I avoided using it.

I also just ordered a bunch of sets from target to try. Just be aware sets from not Jewish stores you need to buy two and find sheets and possibly extra pillowcases to match
