Love my queen set of sheets by Redland! best ever!

I’ll be receiving their Quilt this week. Ordered through Amazon. The description says lightweight and summer, but the details say 25 pounds. Hoping that’s wrong. I’ll update this within a week or so. I did see complaints on their sheets, filed with the BBB. The company seemed responsive by sending replacement sheets, but no refunds.

The quilt reviews on their website look very shaky. 363 reviews, almost all 5 stars. Just 4 four star reviews. Nothing lower than 4. That’s just not possible.

I just went back to their site. If you select a sheet, or any products, it shows the reviews. Click to get detailed reviews. Then select ratings from highest to lowest and read comments. They show a 4.9 rating for sheets. Just a few bad ones. Looks like either they fiter out a lot of bad reviews or their products are truly outstanding.

My Red Land sheets are in the wash now. i use them all Summer … warm weather. They have never softened but i have grown to like the heavier weight and they aren’t as coarse as they were when new. They get washed every 4 days all Summer and then we switch to LL Bean white flannel that I have had for 20 yrs. Still like new. I dry the Redland pillow cases on my towel warmer. They come out like they have been ironed which I like. I still firmly believe that the company is deceitful as are their numerous reviews . I wouldn’t buy again but they are heavy duty enough they will likely last for years.

UPDATE.

I received my Redlands cotton quilt from Amazon.

I gave 5 stars on the sheer feel of the quilt.

However, there were some gotchas, which I did caution potential buyers about.

1. Reviews.

When I ordered the quilt, there were two reviews with narratives. Both were 5 stars, but read like ”homers,” put them on. I was suspicious of the reviews. After posting my review, the other reviews disappeared. Very odd. Did Amazon pull them?

2. The gotchas.

The description said easy to launder. My research.

a. Do not dry clean. That’s on the Redlands site.

b. I researched cleaning of quilts. The general advice is consistent. Do not put them in the washer. The most common recommended method is to wash them in a bathtub, then repeatedly rinse off the soap. Then pressing down to squeeze out as much water as possible. Then hang them outside. I have a condo and can’t hang them. These are really large. I can picture bird poop, small bugs flying into them as they dry. Nothing easy about cleaning these. My take, spot clean, and never wash a quilt. This was probably the best advice given. Some people vacuum their quilts.

c. A commercial Laundromat in a supersize machine? No thanks. The cold wash setting won’t kill germs from the prior user.

d. Size I ordered was a full/queen. It’s a large queen and doesn’t work on a full size bed. Our mattress top on our full size bed is 20 inches. It touched the floor on both sides and was ridiculously long. We moved it to our queen and it looks great there.

I did not deduct any stars simply because the comfort level on the skin was incredible. There were no blemishes or thread problems. Of course, given the cleaning issues, we use a topsheet to minimize skin contact. We may buy matching shams to complete the look.

If any quilters read this, please advise on how you care for your quilts.

Because these are solid color quilts, white or natural, every blemish would show.

No, I just don't like the sheets. They are NOT what they advertised. If they stood behind their product, they would take them back after you washed them and they would post the negative reviews. Politics has nothing to do with it. Since I never listen to any radio, I have no idea where they advertise.

Cale Jean: No posts. No reviews. No idea books. Only two comments. Spammer.

These are the best sheets I've ever owned. I have 2 sets that I rotate between and just ordered a third to put in my Airstream. I also have their throw, pillow cases and shams. I don't love the shams but that is just personal, the quality is still there. No, I don't work for these folks, I have a duvet from Authentic50 which is also amazing. American made and grown cotton cannot be beat.

What they are not: soft silky feeling, cheap see through material, over processed material that has been beaten into feeling soft, they are not sateen by any definition

What they are: crisp cool fabric, thick like "old school" sheets, breathable, completely luxurious

These sheets do get better with time, however, if you wash them incorrectly they will shrink and tend to wrinkle. I recommend washing on cold and using a splash of vinegar instead of fabric softener. Dry them on the lowest heat you have or air fluff, or better yet, if you are lucky enough to have one throw them outside on the line.

I want the percale that I bought in the 70's-80's. and early 90's. They were not thin. They were not sateen. They did not wrinkle. The top hem did not twist and crease. You washed, threw in the dryer, and they were fine! I am NEVER hanging sheets on the line ever again.

I also want hot water, or at least warm, to get all the dirt, body oils, and dust mites out of my sheets.

I still say, that if they REALLY stand behind their sheets, you could return after one wash.

Update to my posts.

I received the Redlands quilt through Amazon at no cost. Not really true. The free Amazon provided items are fully taxable on my Federal and State tax return. Amazon sends out 1099s. So the free item will really cost me between 25 to 30% of he full MSRP. To boot, there’s no warranty or returns on these “free,” items. Not as good as it sounds. I mentioned this to make it clear that I am selective in ordering. I have been burned by paying this tax on items that wound up being thrown in the dumpster. I only remain in the program because I’m retired and it’s my hobby. I don’t have a business, and donate many items.

We did like the quilt enough that I started looking at the Redlands site. I found a 30% off holiday code. We just used it to order shams, a pillowcase set, and the ”shudder,” sheet set. As we use and wash these, I will post updates. I ordered blue sheets, as the site said the dyed sheets are softer. Neither my wife nor I iron, so we are customed to some wrinkles.

I’ll use Jennell Lorenz’s recommendations for washing sheets. Additional washing recommendations will be apptreciated.

I ordered the 16 inch deep sheet for my 14 inch mattress.

Still more.

It’s really bad the way Redlands only posts 5 star reviews. I’d like to read the poor reviews. I can understand not accepting laundered returns, as some people may use the very hot sanitize cycle, and the hottest heat that their dryer provides. Do they have hard water or soft water. Or possibly well water. Any of these can affect the way the sheets come out.

I hope this comment may be helpful.

I’ve received my sheets, pillowcases, shams and towels. I’ve already commented on the quilt. The shams. They look great with the quilt, both in natural. Hint. We ordered a set of two inexpensive pillows to go inside the shams. We tried using what we had, but they weren’t identical, and the difference was noticeable.

The pillowcases. They are the natural color. My wife says they are wonderful to sleep on. The best she’s ever had.

The sheets. I ordered them in blue. The company web site stated that the natural is not as soft as the other colors, due to minimal processing. They were washed in cold water, and she used the linen setting on the dryer. They came out perfect.

We then compared the blue sheets to the pillowcases, which were the natural color. We both agreed the blue sheets were softer than the natural pillowcases.

We also received their towel set from Amazon. They are soft and absorbent and reminded us of our stays at the Wynn Hotel in Las Vegas.

Finally. Today we ordered the throw, in natural, from Redlands. Amazon has, or had? great deals. The white throw, sheets, I guess most Redland items are 25% off., plus another 6% during Prime, using the Amazon card. Unfortunatey, Amazon has limited colors. The natural throw, did not have the discount, so we ordered from Redlands, using a 20% discount code that popped up.

I hate the way Redland only shows 5 star reviews. However, They do have a very large number of 5 star reviews. That entered into my decision to try the Redland products.

After reading reviews on Redland Cotton sheets, I chose to go with Brooklinen for my son’s bedroom. I have Cuddledown sheets because you can choose a deep fitted sheet, and I also have Cozy Earth in the guest bedroom. All of them seem thinner than the sheets of bygone days.

Last month we purchased the Redlands Cotton Full/Queen Duvet Cover in the heirloom stripe pattern. It washed well, and we really like it. The only problem with the stripe pattern is that the blue sheets are an eyesore when you roll the striped duvet cover 1/4 down. We’ll need to buy new sheets. .

STILL don't like the sheets They still did not print my review. The hem winkles and the top sheet is too short for the mattress. I bought the deepest set they made. I bought extra pillow cases and one set is seconds. They have seams on both long sides of the pillowcase.

One star at best.

6 month update: I didn't like them when I got them and still don't. They have been washed at least 10 times (we rotate 3 sets of sheets) and they are as rough as when we got them. I put them on the bed last week and DH said to please get rid of them! We like cool, crisp sheets. Red Land is neither of those things.

I just received my latest order of Redland Cotton Sheets. Amazon 2 day member sale, 30% off. I just really like them. They are heavier and stiffer than other sheets. I like the stiffness, as it makes the bed easier to make. I use a top sheet under a Redlands Duvet cover, which holds a light down insert plus a woolen duvet insert. Very soft sheets make it more time consuming to make a bed.

My first disappointment with Redland Cotton just arrived. I ordered their newer line of spa towels, at their seconds sale. My wife doesn’t like the look or feel. They are just larger than the regular line. We both like their regular line. Oh well. If we paid full price, we would return them. They were 45% off and non returnable. There were no problems getting the seconds, we just don’t like the dull gold color or the feel.

These sheets remind me of canvas, or burlap. They are the heaviest, roughest sheets I've ever seen- or tried to sleep on! Whoever had the idea to buy the pillowcases first is brilliant! Wish I had before wasting $200.00. Will be donating these awful misrepresented sheets!!

I do not like them either. However, if you will disregard their instructions and wash on HOT in the heavy cotton cycle, they will start to soften. I bought them for our king bed and cannot afford to replace..

We actually have 3 sets of sheets, one quilt, with a second on the way, pillowcases, a blanket, a duvet cover, and a number of towels. We obviously like them. The quilts are our favorite. They are light as a feather, look great on the bed, and feel great on the skin. My wife just noticed loose threads on a towel, which shouldn’t happen at that price range. We’ll pass on their towels. The duvet cover is heavy and can double as a nice bedspread. We order at certain times, such as July 4th, when they have 30% discounts. Amazon also has them and does discount them during prime or holiday sale events.

The web page makes it clear that the natural color is rougher to the touch, due to minimal processing. After reading that, we ordered white and blue sheets.

I HAVE the white. They are rough! I do not like them at all, but are stuck with them.

ETA: Any company that stands behind their product will take back after washing. They do not. That should of been a red flag. They also do not publish all reviews. They did not publish mine on their web page. That is why it is all 5 star reviews.

DO NOT BUY!

Feels like a burlap sack. Rough, scratchy and very wrinkly. Not recommended.

We bought a set last December. Not only were they rough, but they were huge. They were supposed to be king size sheets, but they were way, way too big for our king mattress. I'm not sure what kind of mattress they were supposed to fit. Even though we had not yet laundered them, the customer service rep gave us a hard time about returning them, but she coughed up a shipping label after hubby started to use "that tone" with her.

I just purchased a white top sheet in their seconds sale. Oh boy, when I opened the package the chemical odor was overwhelming. I washed it and still the odor persisted. I hung it outside and that helped a bit. Hopefully, the odor will subside over time with multiple washings. I believe the chemical smell is a sizing agent to prevent shrinkage. But it is horrible.

Incidentally, since this sheet was a second I was expecting some irregularities in the cotton weave or in the stitching. Not so! There were three or more gray- green marks on one side of the sheet which if I were in charge I would have directed it to the recycling bin. This sheet must have tangled with a textile loom or some other machinery. They did not come out after the wash.

This will be my first and last purchase from Red Land Cotton. Customer service is marginal.

And oh yeah, the sheet is rough to the touch.

I have ordered multiple products from Redland Cotton. Our latest was two weeks ago. It’s a red striped quilt, queen size. For some odd reason, it was marked down by either 1/4 or 1/3, but was not part of their seconds sale. It may be a discontinued item. I expected minor blemishes, but it’s perfect. We now have 3 quilts, four sheet sets, one blue, two white, one natural, towels, pillowcases and a throw blanket. There has never been any odor, and the sheets and towels have been washed multiple times. We’re hoping they get more red striped products in stock. They really make the bedroom pop.

I just washed my new set of Redland Sheets, (~$300 worth) and am soooo disappointed. First off, they don’t feel like sheets, but like old fashioned mattress ticking. They are course and thick and not like any other sheet I’ve encountered. I chose the natural color which appeared cream online. But in person, they have tiny black flecks in them like poorly processed cotton. I thought maybe they would soften and flecks would wash out. But they came out of the dryer still speckled and terribly wrinkled. I don’t normally mind wrinkles in my cotton sheets, but this is next level. When I just checked on the return policy, it says you cannot return sheets that have been laundered. Which I didn’t know.
Lets just say this is likely the reason they don’t have reviews on their website, and they charge for returns, and aren’t upfront about not taking returns that are laundered. Note to self… never order pricey items that can’t be returned, unless you have first hand experience or at least a trusted recommendation. Go with a known and reputable company that you have experience with or will accept returns!

We like ours. I think the fact that they are heavier, and possibly a little stiffer is the problem. I really like them as in warm days, they are heavy enough to use without a comforter. We have AC but when it’s not actively going, it can get uncomfortable. The thickness, or stiffness makes it easier to quickly make a bed. I never used a flat sheet until I got these. Flat sheets slowed down making a bed. These sheets are much better for quickly making the bed. We always use the flat sheets now.

The flat sheets DO NOT FIT the 16 inch mattress like they say they do.

I ordered 2 towels over the black Friday sale. The towels are smaller than my standard towels from target and thin. Their customer service is the worst. Stay clear from this company. Also they charged $8 to ship and now want $9 to return them. Better companies to do business with.

Yes, I did. Worst mistake I ever made. Do NOT BUY!

Do Not BUY! They have poor quality at high price and no customer service.

I've purchased a fitted sheet from them.

Very good quality. No complaints here.

You get what you pay for generally.

I ordered 2 bath towles. I am very disappointed. They are smaller than my costco and target towles and very thin. I did order sheets from boll and branch, they are wonderful. The customer service is very poor at red land cotton.

I'm going to buck the trend here, but I love these sheets! I've never slept so well and I spent a lot of time researching percale sheets. I haven't had any problem with them what so ever. They fit my bed and they do soften up and are very well made. I received their blanket and am equally impressed. I'll be ordering their quilt next. I don't agree with their return and I probably don't agree with their politics but I firmly believe in trying to buy American made products. I do love my sheets.

Yes, I fell for the fake reviews. They are awful sheels and the top sheet is not near long enough for the size mattress.

Sounds like someone needs to start a lawsuit against a company that gives a lifetime guarantee but only if you don’t ever wash them!

Well Lyfia I didn't get paid anything. I don't represent them and your trollish insults I find amusing. And BTW I have peripheral neuropathy in my feet so go ahead and make fun. You seem to be good at that.

Not a good company!! Stay away.

I still hate the sheets.

top sheet purchased as hemstitched turned out to be eyelet sewn between sheet material sheet is rough feeling anything but soft and silky DONT BUY

I hate these sheets. Katie ,Lawrence and the other managers of the company refuse to take them back or refund.. At one point they said to wash them in a water and vinegar solution. That didt work. They wrinkle and shrink.Then they said to send them back and they would donate them at our cost. These sheets are not anything they advertised LUXURY!!!!! WORSTS EVER AND SO IS THEIR STAFF

DO NOT BUY THESE CRAPPY SHEETS,YOU WILL BE SORRY YOU DID.

I started this thread 4 years ago. just an update to say they do not advertise on Sirius XM anymore. :) I never did buy any. I recently bought the 400 ct Hotel sheets from Costco, reg 39.99 on sale for 29.99. OK so far, but the pillowcases wrinkle when in use. Plan on washing this weekend, so we'll see how they do after that. They're a little slick but not enough to bother me.

Get California Design Den sheets on Amazon. So smooth and comfortable!

We love their products.
We have.
4 different sheets. Two sets plus two fitted only.
A number of pillowcases.
Three quilts.
Two duvets.
Number of towels.

Awaiting another shipment of a harvest gold duvet and a body sham cover.

My wife loves the comfort of the sheets, especially the Harvest Gold. Also loves the matching pillowcases. Raves about the comfort,
Me. I like the sheets because they are heavier than most. Easier to make the bed and nice in cold weather. In summer, the sheets are all you need due to the thickness.

We brought the quilts in to a local cleaner. They came out perfect. I was apprehensive due the warnings about dry cleaning and hanging them dry. I don’t know how they were cleaned, just that they came out perfect.

One dislike.
The cotton throw blankets. Stated coming apart for no reason at all. I don’t recommend those, though they look very nice.

Worth commenting that the full/queen size is too big for a full sized bed. Too wide. It may work on a high bed. Will not work on a full sized low platform bed. Will cover part of the floor.

Very rough weave do not buy

Very rough and low quality I don't recommend these for anyone. The positive reviews here are false reviews and you can see from their regular use of the site as well and when they joined to post. Buyer be aware. There is a reason they won't take them back after you wash them.

Yes, the postive reviews are false. They will not let a true review lnto their website,. I know , I made one. Anything you see positive is paid for or belongs to a relative. They are the worst company you can ever think of. They are the worst sheets you can ever buy.

DON'T BUY REDLAND COTTON PRODUCTS. THE COMPANY DOES NOT BACK UP THEIR CLAIMS OF LUXURY. THE PRODUCTS ARE ROUGH,THE MANAGERS KATIE AND LAWRENCE ARE FULL OF 'BROWN COTTON'. TERRIBLE PRODUCTS

Run away from Redland cotton. I ordered towles a year ago. They where nmo better than my Target towles at 4 times the price. Customer service is lacking. They do not live up tp their claims.

After sleeping on a guest room bed that had Red Land sheets, we ordered a King size set in the gray stripe. I washed them in warm water and dried in a medium low setting. They fit perfectly and the top sheet has a good 12” to tuck under the foot of our mattress. The weave isnt silky, but by no means rough! The sheets are heavy enough to provide the weight I like and the cotton keeps me cool.

Redland Cotton are the worst sheets we have ever purchased over our 50 years of marriage. After washing according to package directions, the top sheet faded and did not match the fitted sheet I contacted the company and sent pictures. They woukd not let me return the sheets since ”I washed them” and said ”they had never had that problem before”. I was always very professional in trying to work out a solution. After my third call to them, they would not answer my call. I even tried using a different phone and they apparently refused to answer a phone call from my area code . I even tried leaving a review several times and it was always taken down. Do NOT BUY!!!!!
