Best microfiber bed sheets

No matter who you are, you need to sleep. While we all spend time in our beds, we often don't think about the quality of the sheets we're sleeping on. A good set of microfiber bed sheets can deliver quality comfort without coming with a hefty price tag along the way. They can also ensure you stay a little warmer during the cool months while staying light and breathable along the way.

When choosing your sheets there are a few things to take into consideration: 

• Size: The first thing to think about when it's time to pick up new sheets, is the size of your bed and the sheets. While we're all familiar with the basic sizes, you may want to opt for sheets with deeper pockets if you find your bottom sheet regularly slips off the mattress. If you have an extra deep mattress, then some bottom sheets may not even fit your bed. These are the things that need to be on your mind. 
• Color: Make sure when choosing the color or pattern of your new sheets that you're taking into account the colors you've already designed the room in. Whether you want your bedspread to blend into the aesthetic, or stand out, there are plenty of great options to pick from. 
• Materials: Microfiber is a synthetic material made of polyester, nylon polymers, or wood pulp. If you have allergies to any of these materials, you may want to avoid microfiber sheets to avoid an allergic reaction. 

Once you switch to microfiber sheets, you may never sleep on cotton ones again or pay the premium for a high thread count. Judging by the universal appeal of Amazon Basics' deep-pocket sheet set, countless people have. Though these sheets are offered in over 40 shades and patterns, we gravitated to the Peachy Coral Arrows colorway. All standard mattress sizes are catered to, including the frequent outlier, California King. Amazon Basics wins again by offering extra options — two-packs of additional pillowcases and a duvet bundled with a set of sheets.

When you're in the market for an ultra-light sheet, you've got to consider the Mellanni 1800 bedding. These sheets come in tons of sizes, including options for extra deep pockets; perfect for anyone who has an extra mattress pad on their bed. This means mattresses up to 21 inches are covered without an issue. There are more than 30 different colors to choose from, and many are gorgeous darker colors that aren't as popular overall. 

Faster drying and stain resistance are just a couple of virtues of Sonoro Kate's microfiber sheets collection. They're offered in 18 muted shades straight out of a dreamscape and have deceptively easy-care; wash on cold and air or tumble dry low. Even the most active sleepers won't dislodge Sonoro Kate's fitted sheets overnight, thanks to a snug fit. We loved the buttery, mellow yellow sheet set — it brings daffodils right into your bedroom all year.

Utopia Bedding is a brand I've turned to before looking for high-quality bedding; I especially love their gel pillows. They excel at all sorts of bed accouterments, chief of which is their microfiber sheet set collection. Jewel tones and deep neutrals suit multiple décor schemes, and they're so soft that you won't want to get out of bed. Hotels are famed for their incredibly comfortable beds and linens, but Utopia Bedding brings that posh hotel feel right into your own bed.

Pills and snags are a thing of the past, thanks to Nestl Bedding's damask-weave dobby striped microfiber sheets. Even if your pets tend to join you in bed, they'll remain as flawless as the day you bought them. Dobby stripe sheets are typically woven with high thread count Egyptian cotton sateen and can come dear. Luckily, Nestl's microfiber sheets bridge the gap between comfort and quality at the right price and offer a far broader color selection than cotton sheets.

Get a good night's rest 

Every night when you curl up to go to bed you do so under the sheets you've chosen for your home. Microfiber sheets are synthetic fibers made from a mixture of polyester, nylon polymers, or wood pulp. They deliver soft breathable material which is durable while being less prone to wrinkling or shrinkage.

Our favorite microfiber sheets come from Amazon Basics. They come in a wide range of colors and sizes, and they're super affordable to boot. These super soft sheets come in six sizes, have 4-pieces, and feature 14-inch pockets.

If you have a waterbed or other type of extra-tall mattress, then you'll want the deepest pockets possible on your fitted sheets. Mellanni's sapphire-blue set of microfiber sheets offers up a great range of sizes to accommodate deeper beds, all the way up to 21-inches thick! They come in more than 30 colors and deliver a beautiful deep hue too.
