So what did we look for when finding these 15 reviewer-loved sheet sets? 100% cotton and 100% linen reign supreme when it comes to cooling fabrics. Cotton is lightweight and breathable, and linen ups the ante by also being moisture-wicking. However, cotton is very durable (especially long- or extra-long staple cotton like Supima), while linen is less so.
We also included a mix of sateen- and percale-weave sheets. Sateen sheets are super smooth, drape easily, and have a subtle sheen to them. Percale sheets have more of a crisp, cool feeling with a matte finish — think of a freshly laundered shirt!
We'll also point out if the set is Oeko-Tex certified. This means it has been independently tested for harmful substances to ensure that it is suitable for humans to use — that's super important for something that makes contact with your skin on a nightly basis!
We decided not to include bamboo sheets, as most of them undergo less sustainable production methods. Most sheets that advertise themselves as "bamboo" are actually made of bamboo-viscose (aka bamboo-rayon) or bamboo-lyocell, which are produced in ways that involve toxic chemicals that can become pollutants. You can read more about bamboo fabrics at The Council of Fashion Designers of America.
Oh, and microfiber is not the best choice when it comes to staying cool. It's tightly-woven, meaning your body heat won't escape as easily.
Okay, now let's find you a new sheet set!!!
www.amazon.com, Amazon
Each set comes with a fitted sheet, flat sheet, and two pillowcases (one for Twin).
Promising review: "Bought these strictly because of the color and cost to use in a guest room. A week after we put these in the guest bedroom, we needed to utilize that bed because we were painting our master. We slept on these and were amazed by the quality for such a low cost. We have always slept on expensive bedding. This set felt just as good. Time will tell how they age, but we have bought another set to use as a spare. Also, I want to mention the cooling effect of these sheets. Both my wife and I love to be cooler rather than warmer when we sleep." —The Dude
Get it from Amazon for $39.94+ (available in sizes Twin–California King, two packs, and 38 colors).
Quince
These are Oeko-Tex-certified. Each set comes with a fitted sheet, flat sheet, and two pillowcases (one with Twin).
Note: As the reviewer mentions below, linen sheets can feel a little more textured and less smooth than cotton, but they should soften with every wash!
Promising review: "I want to preface this by saying that I am a HOT sleeper. I live in the South where it stays hot and humid. I have two fans on me and my thermostat is always set down in the 60s during the night, but I still have night sweats that wake me up and I always kick the covers off throughout the night. When I first took these out of the package, I was apprehensive because they felt scratchy and rough. I washed them according to the care instructions, and they still felt rough, but I gave them a chance. I have slept with them the past two nights, along with Quince's percale duvet cover. I have had zero night sweats and stayed covered up the whole night. I'm amazed." —Cammie D.
Get it from Quince for $85.90+ (available with or without a flat sheet, sizes Twin–California King, and three colors. Also available in a striped pattern).
L.L. Bean
Each set comes with a fitted sheet, flat sheet, and two pillowcases (one with Twin).
Promising review: "Just purchased a second set of these sheets and am very pleased with them. They are soft and comfortable, smooth without being slippery and feel crisp rather than clammy. Sizing is generous and, having started the process of looking for a new mattress, I will no longer worry about the corners of the fitted sheets being big enough because these are plenty large for the depth of modern mattresses. They launder beautifully and come out of the dryer wrinkle-free when removed promptly. Very happy to recommend these sheets!" —L.L. Bean customer
Get it from L.L. Bean for $219.99+ (available in sizes Twin–Split King and 22 colors).
Amazon, www.amazon.com
These are Oeko-Tex certified and certified organic by the Global Organic Textile Standard. Each set comes with a fitted sheet, flat sheet, and two pillowcases (one with Twin).
Promising review: "I love these bedsheets. I’m someone who’s really temperature sensitive, the slight change in temperature and I’m either freezing or on the verge of having a heat stroke, and that was the problem with my past bedsheets. I would get extremely hot and uncomfortable in the middle of the night, making sleeping impossible. With these sheets though, they keep me cool at night and I love that, I don’t have to uncover or set the thermostat to freezing temperatures anymore in order to sleep comfortably." —SmithDani
Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in sizes Twin–California King and 30 colors).

These are Oeko-Tex certified! Supima cotton is more durable due to its extra-long staple fibers. Read more about Supima here.
Each set comes with a fitted sheet, flat sheet, and two pillowcases (one for Twin).
Promising review: "These will be the only sheets I purchase unless someone can show me a better set with a higher thread count and thicker/denser material!!!! It has really been a chore to find these sheets, but they are amazing. They are thick! Heavy duty! We love that feel! They are cool, are great quality, fit my bed great, and they make for a great night's sleep. If you like densely made sheets, these are for you. Do you know what a canvas tarp is? That’s how I like my sheets. I don’t like those thin and poorly made sheets that feel like wore-out underwear." —Liz

Brooklinen
These are Oeko-Tex certified!
Promising review: "I only recently bought Brooklinen sheets and pillowcases, but I quickly found that these are exceptional products. I like to sleep on a pillow that feels cool and not heated from body heat. This is the case with these pillowcases. The fabric stays cool and washes beautifully. I’ve already bought another set of pillowcases and sheets." —Deborah K.

Promising review: "I was extremely surprised at how soft and cooling the sheets were night after night. We went three weeks without changing, washing them in the Miracle Laundry Detergent Sheets, and they are still just as great as ever. Highly recommend!" —Missi C.
Get it from Miracle Made for $204+ (available in sizes Twin–California King and 12 colors).
Each set comes with a fitted sheet, flat sheet, and two pillowcases (one with Twin).
Promising review: "Sleeping on these sheets is a revelation. They feel cool and breathable, even on warmer nights. Then, when the temperature drops, they seem to magically become cozy and warm. It's like they have a built-in thermostat, perfectly calibrated for optimal sleep comfort. My body temperature is no longer a topic of nightly negotiation with my bedding.
And the best part? They get softer with every wash. It's true! They start off with a lovely, slightly crisp feel and gradually transform into this incredibly soft, lived-in luxury. It's like they're aging gracefully, becoming more comfortable and inviting over time." —MBS

Amazon, www.amazon.com
These are Oeko-Tex certified! Each set comes with a fitted sheet, flat sheet, and two pillowcases (one for Twin).
Promising review: "Perfect. I love these sheets. I have been buying microfiber sheets for the prices lately and just got these for the print. Now I need more because when I change the sheets back to wash these, I can't sleep on the microfiber because it clings a little to all my PJs. These are so much better. No clinging to PJs means the PJs don't ride up my legs and wake me up. I can move while sleeping all night and turn over, and my PJs go with me. These sheets are awesome. I got them as a present, and now I will only buy these." —Gina

Promising review: "I LOVE LOVE LOVE these sheets! The colors are even brighter than I expected and the sheets feel so good--silky, soft, and cool against your skin.

Lenok Linen
These are Oeko-Tex certified. Each set comes with a fitted sheet, flat sheet, and two pillowcases.
Promising review: "I had the opportunity to sleep on someone's sheets and immediately had to order my own linen sheets. You may notice the texture at first, but a few washes later is when you notice the real ahhhhh factor every time you slip into bed. I'm both a hot and cold sleeper, and these sheets regulate me like nothing else. I've spent a lot in the past on 1,000-count sheets and bamboo sheets and you name it... these are the best. Happy sleeping!" —Jean
