I bought these sheets in deep blue for my son's bed. They get washed a lot since he every time he hits a growth spurt he has accidents at night. They have kept their deep, rich color really well through about a hundred washings, so I bought another set. They don't wrinkle as easily as other sheets, the pockets are deep enough for a thick mattress and a 3" foam topper, they stay in place, and they wear really well (no holes or rips). They also get softer with wasings, which is saying something since my water is very hard and I don't use softener on them (since I'm usually also washing the waterproof mattress liner). I love these sheets! They're affordable, hold their really deep color well, stay in place, and are durable.
