We’ve tested dozens of cooling sheets. Here are a few others we like but not as much as the options above.
Bedsure Bamboo Cooling Sheet Set for $34: These bamboo sheets are some of the best affordable sheets we’ve found, though not as cooling as our top picks.
Quince Bamboo Sheet Set for $110: These sheets feel much nicer than the price suggests, and they are silky and cool, with a nice weight to them. Not quite as breathable as our top picks, but still excellent.
Luxome Bamboo Luxury Sheet Set for $170: These bamboo sheets are soft and cooling, but are a little heavier than we’d like compared to the rest of our picks. They’re still a great bamboo set for the price, though.
Brooklinen Classic Percale Core Sheet Set for $179: These are a great set of cooling percale sheets that have that super crisp feel to them. I prefer softer sets that keep you just as cool, but these are a great option if you like a crisper touch.
Coop Comphy Percale Sheet Set for $179: Like Brooklinen, these are great percale sheets with a more classic, crisp feel—which makes sense, since Coop designs its linens to feel like hotel linens. They’re great to sleep on, but you’ll have fewer color options than you do with Brooklinen.
My Sheets Rock the Regulator Sheets for $199: These bamboo sheets are cool and silky to the touch. I didn’t wake up sweaty, but I woke up feeling a little hotter than I did with my other picks.
Pure Parima Ultra Percale Sheet Set for $230: These Egyptian cotton percale sheets are softer than most other percale, and they are breathable and super comfortable to sleep on. They’re more of a splurge, but not the most expensive percale out there.
Parachute Percale Sheet Set for $269: This is another nice percale set, but a little pricey compared to others we’ve tried and loved. WIRED reviewer Julian Chokkattu says they’ve held up well against his dog, which is a nice bonus.
Brooklinen Washed Linen Core Sheet Set for $319: These sheets are fine linen, but they start out rougher than other linen we recommend, and I felt cooler sleeping on the picks above.
Riley Percale Sheet Set for $260: These percale sheets are nice and crisp, but expensive. They’re good sheets, but we were happier with the cheaper options we recommend, or the Pure Parima sheets above.
The Citizenry Stonewashed Linen Sheet Set for $299: These linen sheets from The Citizenry are my absolute favorite linen. They’re breathable and among the softest linen sheets I’ve tried. They have a slightly heavier feel than Pottery Barn’s sheets, even though they both have a weight of 160 grams per square meter.
Cozy Earth Bamboo Sheet Set for $331: These sheets are insanely soft and feel ice cold when you climb into bed, which I love. But these are thicker than Ettitude, above, and they warmed up more after lying in them for more than 10 minutes. They’re sheets I’d use year-round, but I still like Ettitude a little better for hotter nights.
Naturepedic Organic Linen Sheet Set for $549: These sheets have a heavier weight while still staying cool and breathable, but they’re a big investment and aren’t quite as soft as our other recommendations.
