I love the cotton poly percale sheets. I like the texture and decreased wrinkles. I am going to try Penney's sheets before they go out of business

Thank you all for the replays. I went ahead and ordered the ones from the other channel and it said 100% percale I checked. They were offering a 20% off coupon. The color I wanted was not available in queen so I just got white to try them. I will update you once I try them. I may wait and let you know how wrinkled they become.

A while ago and I believe in the community forum, I don't recall her screen name either said she had ten sets of cotton sheets and when she got to the last set she took them to the dry cleaners! Depending on what area you are from that might be expensive.

Garnet hill web site is one she recommended.

@CLEM, et al, I love percale also. LLBEan is pretty good. They do get wrinkly. I care less about the wrinkles and more about the feel. Line dried is pure heaven when climate allows.

I tried the Threshold sheets from Target that were recommended here but they are not the kind of percale I look for. Someone here called them plastic like and I agree. I never put those on a guest bed.

When I find the good percale I jump for joy! LM

PS! I REALLY like LLBean flannel. They just get softer and softer. I use the flat flannel sheet with a cotton mattress sheet in winter and I am one happy girl. LM

Another vote here for crisp cotton percale. Can't stand any of the droopy shiny slinky type. They need to be cool and crisp.(:

Dry cleaners? That is overkill and adds toxic chemicals. I just wash and line dry if I can. If I have to use the dryer I remove immediately while still warm. I use my hands to smooth on the bed. I do iron the pillow cases, but never the sheets. Most of the wrinkles just smooth out,

I don't like microfiber sheets. Only use 100% cotton sheets that are soft. I haven't tried percale and now that I read this thread about how great it is I will be looking to buy another set.
