High thread count is softer...what do you wear if your allergic to camel hair or wool and need to dress nice...try a high thread count suit or silk...it limits your choices...low count is still good like I love just a tee shit with no tags on it or sweat pants...high count linen feels like that but can look really nice it is not just bed but mens dress shirts I have seen 200 thread count....I suppose if you go out or are a professional it might be awesome....I just noticed it has a worn in softer feel...I have a sweat shirt that is falling apart but it is so comfy....

@@kimzastrow1268 thread count really doesn't mean anything if its over 400. Over 400 means they probably did double ply or triple ply which doesn't make for comfort
Did any of you sillies wash the sheets first? They would soften even more. Even the $20 sheets!
You should never pay $75 for a pair of 300 thread count sheet set at most, $40 and as far as the 480 thread count the most you should pay is around $60.

January Jones I know! Price usually depend on thread count and the material that it’s made of, as well as where it was made (China will be cheaper than Italy for example). They totally ignored the other important things to keep in consideration when getting sheets.

I’ve been using high thread count sheets forever and I’ve never really spent that much on them. The good old sheets my mom always let us use as kids were just scratchy and they got pills in them from being washed so many times over the years, and when I bought my own sheets it was a revelation

only possible number with single ply ( thread) is between 400-500 thread count ... to make sheets of more than 500 thread count you need twist 2 threads or 3 threads and claim your thread count increased by 2 times or 3 times ... in short anything more than a 500 thread count is just a marketing gimmick .... there are many other thing to consider other than thread count like percentage of cotton , grade of cotton , the type of fiber used , the type of weave used , the fineness of the thread , different treatments etc ... how do i know... i make bedsheets ;)
It's not a big investment. You spend so much time in bed every day, arguably more than you spend on your phone. Also, sleep is so important that spending a bit more to get better sleep is worth the little bit more in price. Grant it I'm biased, my sheet are 250$, but I've had them for 3 years now.

I’m a sheet snob 1000 count cotton sheets Lasts forever Feels wonderful touching the skin Since you spend 7-9 hours in bed it’s worth the investment in nice sheets Bamboo and microfiber are not worth the money even if they are giving them away

480 it's not luxury. I would say middle ground. 800 to 1000 is higher end. Now luxury is at least 1500.

We can't have 1200 in an inch...they are counting single fibres
The thread count isn't really that big of a deal, the material is most important. It's like comparing polyester to silk.
Walmart has 400 tc for 50 for KING sized. 🙄
*I'm not going to buy 75 dollar Buzzfeed bed sheets.*
You guys could’ve got silk sheets. Studies have shown that silk sheets prevent your skin from wrinkles, have a smoothing feeling, and etc. It’s also shiny. :3
Ummm i'm currently lying in my bed thats with 1200 thread count sheets...this video is making me appreciate my bed even more..time to roll around in them!
To get the full effect you have to shower shave and lotion up before bed 😂
1000 thread count are the best.
! I just purchased my first linen sheet set from Macys ($600 reg price). FELL IN LOVE with luxury sheets. I have since bought Macy's - Charter Club Damask (Supima - $200) OMG. Pure luxury!!!! Hotel quality. I'm never going back to reguar sheets. This video was awesome and fun to watch.
For this to be an accurate test instead of a placebo effect, they shouldn’t have known the price of the sheets.

Mine are 600+ from Kohl's and yes, they were like $90 originally but they were on sale I think like post Black Friday stores generally have a home sale, plus a friend gave me Kohl's cash to use and they had an extra off coupon. So they were like 40 at the end of everything for a queen size set
Why aren’t this people the FACE OF BUZZFEED THEY ARE SO AMAZING

I disagree... Microfiber is just not breathable at all. Once you try 100% cotton in a high thread count you understand how important having a breathable fabric can be.. microfiber made my kids sweat all the time even in the winter, and it wasn't until I tried microfiber on my own bed that I felt this. Never going back!
The best test is a BLIND TEST.

I'm a psycho and actually do change my sheets daily lol And I buy 1500 count sheets too. They're not nearly as expensive as this video is making them to be. I buy 7 of the same colored set and rotate through them during the week.
We love videos where the contents start right away not just people blabbering right there for the 60% of the time.
200$ luxury set. Uh-huh.
Except.. thread count doesn’t matter much. It’s about the material (long-staple/short-staple) and weave... 👀
I don't even pay 20$ for my own sheets. . . no, not 15$ either.
Thread count isn't what you think it is. Used to be counted one way of triple thread. They're supposed to be CRISP. Now they count them any way they want to. Divide that 480 by 2 (for both ways) and then by 3 (for single thread) Sears 20 count (equivalent of 1200 count both ways) used to last for 20 years. They were amazing.
450 thread count is still low quality - this is a terribly thinly veiled advertisement for Goodful's sheets. You can spend $75 at Target to get much higher quality sheets for a higher thread count than the supposed "luxury" sheets in this video.
With a sale and a bunch of coupons I bought the most expensive sheets in the store last year. And the fabric is so fine that you will notice any irregularity of your skin scraping it. Very annoying! I find weight of the cotton way more important than thread count.
Woah! These are expensive for what they are. I got sheets with a thread count of 600 for only around 140$.
Best sleep of your life? All natural fiber sheets. Not that polyester bullshit. Cotton, satin, silk. 100% BEST SLEEP EVER, assuming you have a nice mattress. And wash them as soon as you get them with a lovely fabric softener and get in bed while they’re still warm. So good~
I am genuinely curious. Really people do not know what thread count is!?
I’m sleeping on 400ct right now and they’re too rough for me moving from microfiber sheets
Microfiber sheets are great and you can get them for less than $75.
To be a better experiment, you should have ranked the sheets without knowing which are the sheets.
I bought 1800 thread count sheets for 24.99 wtf are y’all smoking 😂
Internally, I’m asking if this a budget worth it video without Steven and Andrew. Is this even technically a worth it video?
Ugh I hate making up my bed

I've been thinking about better sheets, but I normally sleep IN my sheets, just on Top my sheets. I'm guess it's not worth it. 😕
4:06 blue eyed blonde girls GTFO make way for dark brown eyed blonde girl just WOW!! Never in my life noticed how beautiful deep dark eyes can be. This girls eyes are more alluring than blue or green eyes just wow
I've slept on sheets that felt like paper before, not fun. I tend to spend between $25-$35 on some sheets. But I've been to a Very nice hotel before and boy do their sheets feel nice. Which is why I"m here. I wana learn how to shop for high quality bedding. Edit: I'm one for being frugal but like a good pair of walking shoes you have to spend money on a good night's sleep.

Microfiber sheets. Cheap, beautiful, and the softest sheets you'll ever use. Only downside is that they feel slippery and sometimes get warm. (But I actually like that.)
Bitch I ain’t got time to change my sheets!!!

Goodful is owned by Buzzfeed, so take their advice with a grain of salt. The $75 sheets are overpriced for what they are
Lol they’re all saying “hard to go back to 20 dollar sheets” like they have to give the 200 dollar sheets back. Ok boomer
Amazon's choice 😂 Dont get me wrong.. Amazon is my gig. I love Amazon and I DO buy Amazon's Choice items. I came to this video because I want to know if the tread count is worth it but, one of the ladies said that's the bedding she buys but people need to know that Amazon' Choice, DOES NOT mean they are the best AND DOES NOT MEAN THE MOST POPULAR, amazon's choice is what makes them the most profit. So if you're in the market for sheets from amazon like I am, don't just pick the one that says that.

Do the same video with people in their 40's. If they can afford it they will at lest not buy the rough sheets. These persons did not had children. After a long day of working and parenting you bet I want a comfy bed.
