1000-Thread-Count Egyptian Cotton King Fitted Sheet - Extra Soft

Our review of the Ashton Sheets 1000-thread-count king fitted sheet finds it best suited for sleepers who want a dense, hotel-style feel and need a deep-pocket fitted sheet that actually stays in place. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of extra long staple Egyptian cotton with a sateen weave that creates a heavy, silky surface that sleeps cool and smooth. This review focuses on real-world fit, fabric hand, and durability so you can decide if the thick, substantial construction matches your mattress and nightly habits.

Key Features

• 100% Egyptian cotton: The extra long staple fibers and mercerized finish produce a noticeably soft, smooth surface that improves with washing.
• 1000 thread count sateen: The luxurious, dense weave gives a hotel-like, heavy drape that feels substantial against the skin.
• 16 in deep pocket (fits to 18 in): Designed to fit deep and pillow-top mattresses, the deep pockets and tag indicating head/foot make installation straightforward.
• Grippy elastic: The elastic all around the skirt helps the sheet stay put on adjustable and thick mattresses throughout the night.
• Breathable and cool: Despite its weight, the natural cotton weave is breathable and suitable for year-round use and hot sleepers.
• Easy care: Mercerized fibers resist fading, pilling and shrinkage when machine washed warm and tumbled low.

Who It's For

This fitted sheet is ideal for people who prefer a heavyweight, hotel-quality cotton feel and owners of deep or pillow-top king mattresses up to 18 in. Couples who run warm will appreciate the natural breathability of Egyptian cotton combined with a smooth sateen finish.

It is less suited to people who want ultra-light, crisp percale or those who want an entire sheet set in one purchase, since this listing is for the fitted sheet only; shoppers wanting a flat sheet and pillowcases should purchase a full set from the same brand storefront.

Pros & Cons

Pros

• Luxurious, silky hand from long-staple Egyptian cotton and a 1000 thread count sateen weave.
• Deep pockets and strong elastic keep the fitted sheet secure on mattresses up to 18 in.
• Breathable natural fibers that sleep cool despite the heavy, dense fabric.
• Mercerized finish that helps maintain color and resist pilling after washing.

Cons

• One honest limitation: a few users report mixed durability at seams, so heavy wear may reveal weak points over time.
• Sold as a fitted sheet only, so buyers wanting a complete set must purchase additional pieces separately.
