Recently, I realized that my bedsheets were on their last days. Those sheets, which had once been soft and cool, now felt like sandpaper. I had bought them years ago at Ikea, and although they were an incredible purchase at the time, they were already crying out for a replacement. Every time I washed them, I convinced myself that they would last “a couple more washes,” but this time there was no turning back.
So, dude, I decided it was time to do something about it and, being an Ikea fan, I thought, “why not take a look at their website and see what new options they have?” Sometimes reviewing your page is like a trip back in time, remembering every purchase and every choice. And that’s how I started looking for my perfect new set of sheets, between fresh cotton and recycled material (you never know when a sheet may surprise you). After having tried Ikea sheets for years, I just bought some from their new collection: here are my conclusions on the new sheets I’ve found.
I Discovered New IKEA Bedsheets — Here Are My Favorites
The first thing that popped up was the Dvala set, for $24.99. I found the price reasonable, and the fact that they were 100% natural cotton hooked me right away. Ah, cotton! There’s nothing like that cool touch against your skin, especially when you lie down after a long day.
Additionally, I read that this material improves with each wash, becoming softer and more cozy. It was almost like hearing the promise of a restful sleep every night. The best? The fitted sheet has elastic all around, so there are no more excuses for it to slide or wrinkle in the corner of the mattress in the middle of the night.
The Soft Touch of Top-Quality Ikea Fabric
The next option was the Bandpalpmal set, $14.99, significantly cheaper and made from recycled polyester. This set, although it was not made of cotton, intrigued me because of the touch of sustainability. Sometimes, Ikea surprises with those alternatives that make you feel like you are contributing a little to the planet. Also, the fabric apparently has a brushed finish, so it promises a soft touch.
Maybe it wouldn’t have the cool feel of cotton, but the idea of a comfortable and sustainable option tempted me. I imagined the softness when sleeping, although I was still a little doubtful: would it be as comfortable?
My New Favorite Bedsheets Set frok Ikea
And when it was almost decided, the Ängsdvärgmal set appeared. With a complicated name but a very clear promise: comfort for the coldest nights, made of flanneled cotton. This set did make me wonder. Those cool fall and winter nights, where you crawl under the covers and don’t want to come out, made me think about the softness of flannel and how cozy it would be.
This set also has a detail that I liked: the top sheet has a double layer on the top edge, a decorative finish that you can fold over the quilt for an extra touch of style. Its price? A little higher at $34.99, but with the idea of having the perfect set for cold nights, it seemed like a reasonable investment.
My Top Pick
So, after reviewing all the options, I decided that the Dvala would be my choice for cool nights, the Bandpalpmal as a quick and cheap alternative, and the Ängsdvärgmal would be my “winter set”. I admit it’s a bit overkill to have multiple sets, but I love the idea of adapting my bed depending on the season.
Now, I’m eagerly awaiting the package, already imagining the comfort of a new, soft sheet, because, after all, who doesn’t enjoy sleeping on brand new sheets?
