Percale

Customer comments about Percale Queen Sheet Set:

I bought my duvet cover from the local retail store in Denver. I like the product but was a little dissapointed because the Charcoal color is actually closer to brown, earth tones than a true grey.

Customer comments about Percale Standard Pillowcase Pair:

I love the percale linens at Room and Board. They are generously sized and therefore it is much easier to make my bed.

Customer comments about Percale Queen Sheet Set:

I purchased these after returning a set of sheets from a department store that were waaaaay too deep. I figured that Room & Board sheets would fit a Room & Board mattress. And I was right!

The fit is excellent and the color is great--a nice deep grey that I haven't been able to find anywhere else. Having said that, these are not the best sheets I've ever used. As others have mentioned, they wrinkle fairly easily once out of the dryer. This doesn't bother me too much--I mean, the sheets are hidden under the covers 90% of the time--but I figured I'd mention it for the people who do care about it.

My biggest problem with them is that the fabric is a bit rough to the touch. Not bad enough for me to return them, but it's noticeable. I understand that they're percale, (that's what my mother's always bought--percale and flannel), but percale done right can be as smooth as anything. I think the thread count might be a little low. I'm hoping that the sheets "break in" a bit after a few washings, because the fit and color are perfect, but if the roughness remains I'm afraid I'll have to try another brand.

(As a sidenote, I haven't noticed any issues with colorfastness, but the sheets have only been in the wash once, so we'll see.)

I love the "stone" color, but, man, do they wrinkle!

Customer comments about Percale King Sheet Set:

High Quaility!

Customer comments about Percale Queen Sheet Set:

Sheets were beyond uncomfortable. I am a big Room and Board fan and have spent tens of thousands on their furniture. Great style and great quality. So was surprised that they would produce such horrible sheets. Although I knew the thread count was like 250, I figured, it's Room and Board! Stick with their furniture. Much better options on stylistic bedding to be found at the same or lower price

Customer comments about Percale Queen Sheet Set:

These replaced sheets I'd purchased through another upscale retailer and I like these much better. They are cool, crisp, cotton with a substantial weight that feels great. I have sometimes used jersey knit in the past and will never go back after using these cotton percale sheets. Ths is way more comfortable, and they do indeed have a luxurious feel. Also using in my teenage son's bedroom. We all like these the best of what we've tried in years.

Customer comments about Percale Standard Pillowcase Pair:

I use them in my bedroom. We love, love love the color! Very had to find this shade. I bought three sets plus extra pillowcases.

Customer comments about Percale Queen Sheet Set:

The color of the moment! Seeing it everywhere clothes, furniture, home decor! Clean lines and modern!

Customer comments about Percale Standard Pillowcase Pair:

I like the color, but my biggest problem is the color fading, and the price, since I've had to buy replacements (I received one exchange). It looks like I have vague bleach spots all over my pillowcases, and I don't use any products, such as Proactive, that would cause this. I've had this occur once before with another brand, and I think its something to do with the colorfast-ness. My second set of Ralph Lauren sheets do not do this. In addition, the sheets & pillowcases wrinkle so easily after coming out of the wash. They look like aluminum foil.
