Thanks for posting. I have been very conscious about buying made in America products and will be on the lookout for this brand.

Good News to hear!! I too look for American Made products. Is there a local store or site to look at what they produce? I went to a couple sites by Googling Hometex and only found a list of brands that they produce. I will check those brands out anyway. Happy for your lil town and jobs well needed!!

They make the Dreamfit brand sheets. I have several of their tencel sets. They are the only sheets that I use anymore, because they temperature-adjust so well and they are super soft. They private label these same ones for Sleep Number's tencel sheets.

Both have great elastic on the fitted sheet with the extra elastic at the corners, and the top sheet and fitted sheet's pockets are oversized. It makes a difference, especially for long wear and making the bed easily. I believe that these are characteristics of most of their sheets.

Except for the fact that most tencel sheets do not take dye well (so I stick with white), they are excellent quality. The tencel is one of the more expensive fabrications. Their higher thread count cotton is also very nice (not sure if they are the Sleep Number supplier for the cotton), if you prefer those.

Imo, you can feel very proud of this company.

They are really hard to find. They have the Sleep Number version on this site, and via Sleep Number's site and stores. The Sleep Number site usually has a great sale price on them a few times a year.

As far as Dreamfit, a lot of department stores carry their comforter sets. Their sheets are usually in specialty B&M linen stores. The way that I discovered them was on a search for deep-pocket sheets (that were not kidding about the deep pocket). I saw them on Over*ck in cotton. When I got them, and saw the name of the brand, I did a search and ended up finding the company's site. Then, I ordered the tencel directly from them over the phone.

They told me about the Sleep Number brand. If I had known that in the first place, I would not have gone through all of that! I have both, and they are exactly the same!

If you do search for Dreamfit, just a heads-up, you are going to get a lot of equestrian supply places, too.
