These soft sheets are wrinkle-free and oh-so-comfy.

Best Overall

Find on Amazon

Made with ultra-soft, luxurious brushed microfiber, you’ll find it next to impossible to get out of bed in the morning — and not because you’ve had a poor night’s sleep. This fitted sheet from Utopia Bedding features deep pockets that resist pulling and rolling, so you’ll climb into a bed that’s smooth, wrinkle-free, and totally cozy. The elastic runs around the entire border, so it’s easy to put it on and keep it as taught as you’d like. What’s more, the microfiber isn’t just soft — it’s durable, resists shrinking, and will keep its colors wash after wash.

Pros:

• Breathable fabric even in hotter temps
• Deep pockets fit over mattresses up to 15″ deep
• Affordable, budget-friendly price point

Cons:

• The stitching around the elastic isn’t the most durable
• Material is prone to collecting dust and lint

Frequently Asked Questions

Are top sheets necessary?
Although many sheets are sold in a set containing a fitted and a top sheet, it’s quite common to forego the top. Sleeping without a top sheet can leave a much smoother surface with less bunching, so for those who can’t stand wrinkles, it might be a better option. A quality fitted sheet, pillows and cases, a duvet and duvet cover — in our humble opinion, that’s really all you need for your bed.

What’s the best fabric for allergy sufferers?
The fabrics that you sleep on are important — especially if you’ve got allergies. There are a variety of hypoallergenic fabrics that are allergy-friendly, including silk, bamboo, linen, and Tencel, as well as some cotton. Clean your sheets often for best results.
