Mayfair Linen 100% Egyptian Cotton King Fitted Sheet - 800 TC Deep

In this review the Mayfair Linen 100% Egyptian Cotton King fitted sheet stands out for sleepers who want a hotel-style, heavyweight cotton fitted sheet with a reliable deep fit. The single biggest reason to buy is the combination of a true 16in deep pocket and all-around elastic that keeps the sheet secure on mattresses up to 18in thick while remaining breathable and soft. For someone who prefers natural cotton, cooling sleep, and clear head/foot indicators that speed up making the bed, this fitted sheet delivers dependable performance.

Key Features

• 16in deep pockets: The deep pocket design fits mattresses from about 8in to 18in thick so the top sheets can be tucked over without the fitted sheet pulling free.
• All-around elastic: Continuous elastic at the edges ensures the sheet stays snug and resists slipping or bunching during the night.
• 100% Egyptian cotton, sateen weave: A fine yarn and sateen weave produce a smoother, softer surface that feels more like hotel bedding and breathes well for hot sleepers.
• Head/foot indicators: Built-in tags show which end goes where, making it quicker and easier to make the bed correctly every time.
• Mercerized finish: The mercerization process helps reduce shrinkage, pilling, and fading so the sheet keeps a consistent look and softness after washing.
• OEKO-TEX certified: Manufactured with eco-friendly processes and certification that helps assure the fabric is free from harmful substances.

Who It's For

This fitted sheet is ideal for people who prefer natural fibers and a substantial, hotel-like bedding feel. It suits hot sleepers who need breathable, cooling cotton and households that use adjustable or tall mattresses requiring a deep pocket sheet. The clear head/foot tag and strong elastic also make it a good pick for anyone who values an easy, secure fit.

Shoppers who want ultra-lightweight or distinctly crisp, high-luster sheeting or who demand absolute certainty about a specific thread count perception may want to evaluate samples first, since some customers have perceived the fabric thickness differently than the listed 800 thread count impression.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this fit an adjustable mattress that is 14in thick?
Yes. The 16in deep pockets are designed to fit mattresses roughly 8in to 18in thick, so a 14in adjustable mattress will fit comfortably.

Is this sheet truly 100% Egyptian cotton and safe for sensitive skin?
The product is described as 100% Egyptian cotton and carries OEKO-TEX certification, which indicates it is manufactured without harmful substances and is suitable for sensitive skin.

How should I care for this fitted sheet to avoid shrinkage?
Machine wash on a gentle cycle and remove promptly after the spin to minimize wrinkles; the mercerized finish also reduces shrinkage and pilling compared with untreated cotton.
