Takes several washing to soften sheets. They are 800 counts so they are heavy, may be too heavy for warm weather. They are well finished, with extra flap in the pillow case. They do have wrinkles regardless of how they are washed and dried, pillowcases can be smoothed out if removed when damp and carefully smoothed out on top of dryer. They do wrinkle after use but they start out nice.
I do like smooth sheets and would rather buy 500 count pima cotton sheets.
