Malden Mills sheets

I own MM sheets and just love them.

Mine will shred slightly the first 2 or 3 washings, but after that next to nothing. I only wash one king sheet and one pillowcase together and dry.

Then wash the king flat sheet/pillowcase together. I have a large capacity washing machine too.

Mine did that, too, but like Sunshine Kate said they stopped after a few washings. I was concerned at first and talked with customer service about it. They said that should not be happening and that I could send them back. I decided just to keep them and after additional washings it stopped happening.

I have had little to no shedding with mine (I have bought three sets in the last few months). I wonder if it could have anything to do with pH or water hardness or water treatment processes, if that happens in a given area (as opposed to well water), or if a system has a softener on it.

That said, I have never slept better than with these sheets. My picky husband loves them, too.

I have two sets. I bought the Christmas/Winter set with the red poinsettias, and have gotten absolutely no lint from them.

They were so plush and I loved them so much that I ordered a second set...ivory set with embroidery on two pillowcases. They aren't as plush as the Christmas set, and the lint that they give off is horrible. I wake up in the morning and there is even fuzz on my carpeting. And, god forbid I should make the bed while wearing a dark pair of slacks!

They've been washed three times and I "think" they have gotten a little better with this last washing. If they are still giving off lint after the next wash, I'm sending them back.

You would think that "Polar Fleece" should all be the same quality, if it's the same brand. But, it's not. The Christmas sheets are definitely nicer.

I have a couple sets of MM sheets (and a couple more from J.C. Penney)--I LOVE them all.

Thickness doesn't matter. I marvel at how soft they are.
