Why the West Elm Tencel Sheets are worth the price
The West Elm Tencel Sheet Set is on the pricier side, and worth every penny if you’re a hot sleeper.
The sheet set’s silkiness does come with its drawbacks, though. Since they are so satiny and since I’m a side sleeper, I often find myself almost slipping off of my pillow at night. I may eventually invest in a different pillowcase — perhaps a silk one to help protect my curls — but for now, it’s not the biggest issue in the world and it doesn’t prevent me from falling asleep.
The West Elm Tencel Sheet Set currently comes in four sizes — Full, Queen, King and California King — and nine colors. I own the White set, but my husband and I are already thinking about buying a second set in Slate for some variety.
You can find highly rated Tencel bedding at some other Select reader favorite shops, too, including Brooklinen and Casper. For a more affordable option, consider the Luxury Tencel Sheet Set from Nest Bedding, which starts at $99 but has a lower thread count than West Elm’s. A fancier option is Kassatex’s 300-count Percale Sheet Set, which can cost up to $225 but offers a Tencel-cotton blend for added durability, according to the brand.
