After testing the Bampure Organic Bamboo Sheets at home for six months, we think they're some of the best bamboo sheets to consider. The sheet set, which includes one to two pillowcases, a flat sheet, and a fitted sheet, became part of our rotation in both the winter and summer months.

A few details that make this set special are the texture and quality, which we noted felt cool, soft, and silky. We also took note of the quality stitching and appreciated that the pillowcase had an extra flap that covered the end.

The sheets were still silky and lightweight after using them for six months and we didn't notice any significant changes to the texture or overall quality. We also liked that they didn't wrinkle as much as cotton or linen sheets, which we were used to using.

This set is offered in twin, full, queen, king, and California king sizes. Just keep in mind that unlike some other picks, these sheets are sold as a set so you can't opt out of the top sheets.

If you're looking for a less expensive option, we highly recommend the Quince Organic Bamboo Viscose Sheet Set. We tested these at home for one month and were impressed at how well they held up. In fact, we even ended up ordering a second pair.

We liked the feel of these sheets during lab testing and were just as impressed when sleeping on them at home. We thought they gave our bed a luxurious touch and as hot sleepers, we also appreciated how breathable they were.

These sheets fit our mattress with ease and they never popped off the corners of the bed, which we experienced often with other sets we used. We washed these sheets every three days and while they washed very well, it's worth noting that they were quite wrinkled afterward. Although the top sheet remained wrinkled the fitted sheet seemed to smooth out after a night of sleeping on them.

We tested these sheets for six months at home and we loved their silky and soft feel. We noticed a few loose threads here and there but given that we were using these almost every night and washing them every two weeks, we thought they held up quite well. Overall, these sheets made us feel like we were sleeping at a luxurious hotel each night.

The Bamboo Bliss Resort Bamboo Collection by RHH Sheet Set is soft and smooth with medium weight. After sleeping on these for six months, these sheets still felt cool-to-touch and we appreciated that they didn't smell like sweat between washes. We used them in warmer weather and thought they felt great to sleep on.

In lab testing, we were impressed that the sheets maintained their softness and appearance after going through the wash. The fabric held up quite well in durability tests, with no pilling in the abrasion test. There were no visible signs of the oil or coffee we placed on them although the foundation did leave behind a mark. While using these at home, we wore a lip mask and noticed that there was some slight staining on the pillowcase that wouldn't come out in the wash either.

The sheets are available in a seven muted colors, like pale blue and glacier gray, so these may not be the best sheets for you if you prefer a bolder color palette. However, these sheets fall a little below the average price of other bamboo sheet sets we tested, so they're a great option if you want to try out bamboo sheets or need a few sets.

Most of the bamboo sheets on this list are made of bamboo rayon or bamboo viscose, but the Brooklyn Bedding Deep Pocket Bamboo Cotton Sheets have a less common rayon and cotton blend. This fabric is one Baker recommends for long-term durability when shopping for bamboo sheets since bamboo can sometimes be prone to pilling.

In lab testing, these sheets did indeed prove themselves to be durable. Although they're thinner than some other options, we experienced only minor pilling during the abrasion test. After going through the wash, the fabric felt a little softer and silkier, and no imperfections or loose threads were introduced. We slept on these sheets for six months at home and didn't notice any changes to their quality either.

We didn't stain these sheets at home but we tested the fabric in our testing lab and they performed well. Although a small mark was left behind, it wasn’t very noticeable and we thought one more wash with stain remover might have gotten it out.

The set is offered in only queen and king sizes and includes a fitted sheet and two pillowcases. There's also the option to add a flat sheet for an additional cost. While evaluating the sheets, we noticed that there were some loose threads on the seams before washing; however, the condition didn't appear to get worse after a wash cycle. Otherwise, we felt that the sheets were durable.

Overall, we praised the sheets for their natural softness and the visible linen texture, which is a nice departure from the typical silkier feel of bamboo sheets. Although this set is more expensive than some other options, we noted that the breathable sheets are worth every penny.

Plus, we never noticed any wear and tear. While we favored these sheets during the warmer months we still think they're a great option to use all year.

During lab testing, we found that the flat sheet seemed longer than the given dimensions while the fitted sheet seemed smaller. However, it gripped the mattress and we didn't notice any issues during at-home testing. After washing the sheets based on the manufacturer's instructions, we noted that there were some frayed threads and that the top sheet shrunk a bit, although it still fit the mattress.

The set is made with bamboo rayon, a material that we noted was silky and soft. While testing the breathability of the sheets, we found them to be cooling and to not trap heat inside, so they're ideal for warm sleepers and summer temperatures. Upon evaluating the sheets, however, we noticed that there were small snags throughout the fabric.

After being washed, the sheets remained intact and didn't have any loose threads or dye changes. They also retained their softness, and we noted that the set came out of the wash "a dream." When you're ready to put the sheets on your mattress, the sewn-on tags that note the top and bottom of the fitted sheet make making the bed easy.

Before washing, we did note that the sheets had some stitching that was coming undone; however, the sheets appeared to wash well overall. And, although the sheets may be on the more expensive side, they come with a free 30-night sleep trial so you can decide if they're the best fit for your space.

They did find that there were some slightly loose threads at the seams; however, they didn't note any issues after washing the sheets.

Another perk is Cariloha's commitment to sustainability. In addition to being Standard 100 by OEKO-TEX certified, the sheet set was made with bamboo that's grown at the brand's sustainably-run farm without any pesticides, making the bamboo organic.
