As the resident Sleep Editor at Homes & Gardens, I spend eight hours a day surfing the sites of major mattress merchants and the biggest bedding brands, searching for the best discounts on my favorite products.
Often, I come away disappointed. The Memorial Day home sales took a while to get going this year and some of the deals are no better than you'd see on any ordinary weekend. I've had to do some serious sifting through the bedding sales to find anything worth shouting about.
Luckily for you, I've just spotted a super-steep discount on our reigning champion for the title of best bed sheets. Brooklinen just slashed the price of their Luxe Sateen Hardcore Sheet Bundle by 50%.
To put that into context, we're only seeing 25% drops on the rest of the site. This is a genuinely good deal on one of our all-time favorite sheet sets. Here's everything you need to know.
Brooklinen's best-selling bed sheets are made from sateen. You'd be forgiven for thinking that's a kind of material, but it's actually a type of weave that goes three threads over, one thread under.
As bed sheet types go, sateen is tight and able to retain heat. It's a great choice for cool sleepers and anyone who lives in a colder climate, but it isn't so tight that you'll struggle to sleep through summer.
Trust me, my team of expert testers has trialed the Brooklinen Luxe Sateen Hardcore Sheet Bundle through all four seasons, and I've never heard reports of a problem.
The natural breathability of cotton helps to dissipate any excess heat and wick away moisture.
As sateen is woven three threads over, and one thread under, the majority of the cotton threads are exposed to the light. This creates a glossy sheen that looks and feels instantly luxurious.
Unlike cotton percale, which tends to hold creases, sateen is inherently wrinkle-resistant. You can throw your sheet sets straight into the washing machine and dryer without worrying about folds and creases.
The Brooklinen Luxe Hardcore Sheet Bundle comes in a wide range of shades, prints, and patterns to complement any color palette. You could stick with solid white or branch out with storm blue, sea glass green, or pebble stripes.
These sheets get a great write-up on Brooklinen, boasting a 4.5-star average from more than 23,000 verified reviews. 'The sateen sheets are unlike any other set of sheets I’ve owned,' reads one recent review.
'I’ve seen reviews describing them as being buttery soft, and that is no exaggeration. In addition to their softness, they have nice deep pockets that fit my mattress when most deep fitted pockets don’t.' Plus, the fitted sheets come with 'long' and 'short' side tags for easy bed-making.

This is our reigning champion for the title of best pillow. Unlike other adjustable pillows, which are filled with fluff to remove and replace, the Marlow Pillow doesn't make a mess. To adjust the feel and firmness of your pillow, all you need to do is push and pull the zippers to let air in and out.
One of our top contenders for the title of best duvet insert, the Brooklinen Down Comforter is filled with fluffy clusters of duck and goose down for natural loft. The down is certified by DOWNMARK, an independent body ensuring ethical production from farm to factory.
Some of the best silk pillowcases cost upwards of $100. Brooklinen proves you can produce 100% pure Mulberry Silk at a more affordable price. Naturally cooling and hypoallergenic, I recommend a silk pillowcase for hot sleepers and anyone who wants to try something smoother on their hair and skin.
