Honorable Mentions

Quince Linen Bamboo Deluxe Bundle for $255: This set would be a pick, but it’s been out of stock for weeks. It’s a fantastic combination of linen and bamboo that gets the best of both worlds: the softness and cool touch of bamboo with the structure and airflow of linen. It’s a great pick for hot sleepers—when you can buy it, that is. Right now only the deluxe version with the duvet cover can be found on the site, but you have to join the wait list.

My Sheets Rock for $199: These sheets are super soft. They promise to regulate your temperature, but I found myself waking up a little too warm some nights. If you aren’t a hot sleeper, these are overall soft, comfortable sheets to sleep on.

Ettitude Airy Sateen+ Sheet Set for $449: These sheets are fantastically soft and use a combination of bamboo lyocell and bamboo “biochar” to make them antifungal and odor-resistant. They ran a little warm for my liking, but if you’re looking for something to keep odors and fungi away, these could be the splurge for you.

Pom Pom at Home Bamboo Sateen Sheet Set for $345: These are great bamboo sheets, but for the price, we were more impressed by others we tested.

Sunday Citizen Bamboo Sheet Set for $225: WIRED reviewer Louryn Strampe found these sheets to be super soft and fantastic to sleep on. But even with the claimed deep pockets they tended to pop off her mattress, and our top pick is cheaper with straps that will avoid that problem.

How I Test Bamboo Sheets

For our bamboo sheets guide, I compared our picks both overnight and side by side for softness, cooling properties, and price. Each set of sheets was slept on anywhere between one and seven nights, depending on how it performed, and was washed multiple times to check for pilling or design flaws. I’m a hot sleeper living in Southern California, with my bedroom on the third floor of my home, so it’s been easy to discover if sheets can’t keep me cool all night long. I also looked at each sheet’s quality in reference to the price to see what sheet sets were really worth investing in after testing each one.
