My Experience
Eli & Elm’s Wharf Collection striped bamboo sheets definitely have a luxurious feel to them thanks to their long-staple fibers and lustrous sateen weave.
I reviewed the color that is a charcoal grey with light grey stripes, which adds a nice pattern next to solid-colored comforters, duvets, or other bedding.
While the sheets aren’t necessarily “light” in their overall feel, they did have noticeable breathability and there were no issues with temperature regulation. This means they could work for individuals who want something heavier but are worried about potentially sleeping hot.
Bamboo sheets do tend to wrinkle more than other fabrics I’ve reviewed. If someone hate wrinkles, they’ll need to consider using an iron on a low heat setting to remove the wrinkles from these sheets.
Besides wrinkling, the sheets are fairly simple to care for. Just follow the care instructions for the machine wash and dry, and that combined with the long-staple fibers should enhance durability — leaving consumers with these sheets in top condition for a good period of time.
I thought the sheets draped really well over my 10″ mattress. They should fit mattresses up to 15″ deep. They have less of a crisp feel and more of a buttery-soft feel that definitely gives them a luxurious edge. They come in grey stripe, white, and something called “Window Payne,” which is mostly white with a black line pattern.
If someone is in the market for some new bamboo sheets and have $140 to spend on a Queen set, this is a more elite-looking offering that people could consider. The sheets come with a 45-day return policy.
Overall
Overall, I thought the material felt very high quality and also super soft. The sheets were easy to get on and off the bed, easy to machine wash and dry, and (while they did wrinkle even when I put them on the bed right after taking them out of the dryer) they were easy to iron and the wrinkles came right out.
If someone has over $100 to spend on a set of sheets and they want something to impress their guests (or just to enjoy themselves), I’d recommend giving them a try!
