The sheets are very soft almost like satin. I've only just received them, but washed per instructions, before putting them on my bed. I have slept well without getting too hot. Because they are microfiber, when you dry them it has to be on timed dry as my dryer thinks they are already dry. Very little water remains on the fabric once they are washed. I used the low cycle for spin. I had to wait a few weeks for them to be made as the bottom sheet is a split head king mattress. I expected this as it stated it would last of the month for me to receive them. They were well worth the money. My only issue is the name of the company. With Overstock in their name, I contacted Overstock.com to check on my order. When I was told it wasn't with their company, as I order from them, I was concerned where my order was. Finally found my email and contacted the correct company. From that point on, they kept me informed. I just find that misleading with Overstock in their name.
