We&#8217;re extremely excited too, because today marks the seventh week of our three-week project.<\/p>\n<p>Don&#8217;t laugh: That&#8217;s how long our general contractor told us it was going to take when we signed the contract.<\/p>\n<p>By the way, as part of the bathroom remodel, we also bought a new comforter and sheets for the bedroom. I know.<\/p>\n<p>If I&#8217;ve suddenly confused you, you&#8217;ve obviously never done a major remodeling project with the Honeybee; you see, our brand new comforter and sheets are the result of an annoying, yet unavoidable, phenomenon known as &#8220;requirements creep.&#8221; You may remember several years ago I explained (in gory detail) just how that works after <a href=\"https:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/id1319-why-marriage-makes-it-so-hard-to-control-remodeling-costs-well-kinda-sorta.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">we remodeled our kitchen<\/a>. But I digress.<\/p>\n<p>Anyway, while we were out shopping for sheets last week, I found myself a bit overwhelmed with all of the choices available to us &#8212; especially regarding thread count. The available thread count offerings included 300, 400, 500, 600, 700 and 1000.<\/p>\n<p>The last time we got new sheets, we upgraded the thread count from 300 to 500. And the difference was noticeable! So this time, we decided to up the ante again and buy 600 count sheets.<\/p>\n<p>We&#8217;ve been using the sheets for a few days now but, unfortunately, it&#8217;s hard for me to discern any significant increase in comfort between our old 500 thread count sheets and the new 600-count bedding.<\/p>\n<p>Of course, that inspired me to go back and do an after-the-fact price analysis on sheet costs. Here are the results:<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-78152\" src=\"http:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Untitled-7.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"540\" height=\"291\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Untitled-7.png 970w, https:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Untitled-7-300x161.png 300w, https:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/04\/Untitled-7-768x413.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 540px) 100vw, 540px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now, <a href=\"https:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/id1499-financial-rules-of-thumb-that-are-really-old-wives-tales-3.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the conventional wisdom<\/a> is that higher thread counts make for softer sheets. However, it turns out that&#8217;s not necessarily true. Experts say the maximum number of threads that can be placed on a loom is roughly 400. Anything beyond that benchmark requires sheet manufacturers to cram extra-thin pieces of yarn onto the loom.<\/p>\n<p>Perhaps that explains my survey results. On a price-per-thread basis, the 1000-count sheets are less expensive than the 500-count linen. But the product rating averages that I took from the store&#8217;s website are identical! In fact, on a 5-star scale both the 500- and 1000-thread count sheets received an average of 4.9 stars.<\/p>\n<p>Even more telling, when it comes to personal satisfaction, those pricey 1000 thread count sheets &#8212; despite being arguably softer &#8212; are almost 50% more expensive than their 500-count cousins on a price-per-star basis. That begs this question: Is the added comfort offered by 1000 thread count sheets really worth the large price premium?<\/p>\n<p>As for the 600-count sheets we purchased, they were essentially the same price on a cost-per-thread basis than the 500 thread count bedding. <em><strong>However<\/strong><\/em> &#8230; it was roughly 30% more expensive on a price-per-star basis. And I can understand that considering the lack of any noticeable difference in comfort between the two.<\/p>\n<p>Believe it or not, if you&#8217;re striving for the softest, smoothest sheets you can buy, most experts agree that thread material quality is more important than the thread count. High-quality Egyptian and Pima cotton are generally regarded as the smoothest varieties available.<\/p>\n<p>So remember, when it comes to bed sheets, <a href=\"https:\/\/lenpenzo.com\/blog\/id16062-100-words-on-why-most-early-risers-usually-wake-up-smiling-2.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">don&#8217;t lose any sleep<\/a> over the number of threads in your bed linen. Instead, focus on the material &#8212; and stick to counting sheep.<\/p>\n<p>***<\/p>\n<p><em>(This is an updated version of an article originally published on 21 July 2014.)<\/em><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: right;\"><span style=\"font-size: smaller;\">Photo Credit: Didriks<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Honeybee and I are officially in the final phase of a major master bathroom remodel.
