Need suggestions for sheets please!

I recently purchased an adjustable bed frame.  After several tries--I found a fitted sheet with all around elastic works best.  I had a set that came from Sam's---great price---but they do not last long.  Any suggestions on all around elastic fitted sheets that won't break the bank?  Thanks so much!

Re: Need suggestions for sheets please!

I don't have any recommendations since I'm looking for sheets that stay tight all around not just the corners. My bed is adjustable, too. I wish that sheet manufacturers would make a bottom sheet with adjustable elastic so they can be tightened. I'm looking forward to any response that you get.

I don't have an adjustable bed, but I do buy sheets that have the elastic all around.  My favorite are the Threshold brand from Target.  They are reasonably priced and last a long time.

@Toot1920 Search for the bed scrunchie, I think that might be what you want.

 

@pietook I bought a jersey fitted sheet that I use on our adjustable bed, if you go to Amazon and copy this into the search "Soft Stretch King Size Fitted Sheet Only - Jersey Knit & Cozy T-Shirt Like, 4-Way Stretchy Snug Fit & Wrinkle Free, No More Slipping Mattress Sheets - Creamy Beige, King" it will pull it up for you, you can then adjust for the color and bed size. I use 'straps' on the corners to help keep things where they belong, but I probably don't need them. I used the bed scrunchie but settled on this sheet.

@pietook You need the bottom sheet with corner bands. That's what works best for adjustable beds. My 96 year old neighbor bought two sets of DreamFit 10 years ago and the still look new, washing them weekly. Maybe QVC has some with the corner bands, they are the best for adjustable best.

Mellanni  at Walmart have elastic all around, fits up to 16".

They are fantastic sheets, just paid $39.97 for a backup set of King at Walmart, delivered free.  I have bought them for gifts and everyone loves them. 

I also have an ajustable bed and have had no 'boinking' off with these.

Lots of colors and sizes.  Washes wonderfully w/ very few wrinkles.

@We rescue cats , I've used those and they do work. The main problem is that you have to undo the sheets when you wash them and then put them back on each time. I wish that they made sheets with them sewed in the sheet itself. I've tried to make my own except I think that the sheets that used weren't big enough. But, thanks for the suggestion.

It's greet to get all these suggestions!

It seems many beds these days really need those all around elastic!

I have them but got awhile ago at Homegoods. Nice to know about the Walmart and Target suggestions as you really have to wade through the ones at HOmegoods.

I have an adjustable bed and I really like Macy's Charter Club Damask sheets.  I have to problem with them staying put.

Macys is having a sale on them right now, and you might find something in the clearance section.  This week I just bought a set for $50.
