Our new favorite cotton sheets |

Connie Park/NYT Wirecutter |
Writer Jackie Reeve has spent about a decade testing sheets at Wirecutter. And though sheets might seem simple, they’re — as Jackie puts it — “one of the most intimate relationships in your life.” They’re an important thing to get right.
And cotton sheets are the most basic of basics. “You might dabble in linen or treat yourself to flannel,” writes Jackie, “but cotton sheets — the percales and the sateens — are the most common and versatile sheets you buy.” After our latest round of testing, we’ve added six brand-new favorites to our guide, including great organic sateen ones, the best sheets you can grab on a Costco run, and some that come in the best palette of colors that we’ve ever tested.

One last thing: Hamilton, our resident canine bedding tester, hard at work |

Jackie Reeve/NYT Wircutter |
Meet Hamilton, Jackie’s dog. He’s a 9-year-old Maltipoo who has been a Wirecutter tester since he was 10 months old. Over his eight years of reporting, he’s given his expert opinion on sheets, comforters, duvet covers, blankets, towels, and even rugs (from his bureau on the floor of Jackie’s office). Thank you, Hamilton.
Thanks for reading.
