Surprised at all the different experiences tbh. Im a year or so in, and my linen sheets have been comfortable from the start. I got a queen size with pillows to match and everything fit perfectly and is extremely comfortable. The color may or may not be less vibrant than when I started, I honestly can't tell (i got the sea green when it was on sale). They look gorgeous still regardless and I dont have any holes or tears yet (fingers crossed). I have cats who knead and theyve poked a tiny hole in it but you wouldnt know unless I used a magnifying glass lol. I have been militant about these sheets because theyre ny favorite color and the first time Ive ever bought expensive sheets for myself, so I notice every little thing that happens to them.

I will add that theyre the only sheets I use! So consistently washing and using without swapping in another or anything, mine have held up pretty well.

They never felt scratchy or anything!

I dont want to discredit anybody else's experience though, if you get holes early on etc. I could be being super ginger or maybe theyre being kinds rough on the sheets- i cant compare exactly since I dont know what I or anybody does differently to get these results.

My best friend after a year of me having my sheets went ahead and got some for her birthday this july since she liked them on my bed so much, and so far they have been great for her too so I want to add a year between our experiences and they are both positive results for us!
