When I think of technology and innovation, products like smartphones and self-driving cars come to mind. If someone were to tell me that deep innovation and heavy science were going into the sheets I’d probably scoff and say that I’m perfectly fine with mine and that all I need is a higher thread count.
Well, that was at least until I recently had the chance to try Elements Premium Tencel™ Sheet Set by PureCare, a Women’s Choice Award winner. They recently shipped me a sheet set and they blew my mind. It would be tough to ever go back to normal sheets, read on to find out why.
Sheets for a Good Night Sleep
Before going into the technology of the sheets, I should say what is most important to me in my sheets.
First and foremost I’m after a good night’s sleep every night and the two things that play into that the most are how a sheet set feels against my skin, and how they feel and breathe temperature-wise. Both of these factors are not so simple (so it’s starting to make sense that more technology goes into the products). A distant third factor is how the sheets look. Who doesn’t want a pretty and inviting bed to jump into each night?
Soft Sheets that Don’t Irritate My Skin
I have tried a lot of different types of sheet fabrics over the years. I remember feeling microfiber sheets in a store and thinking they felt soft, then on the first night using them finding my husband sleeping out on the couch as he hated the way they made him sweat and itch. Other fabrics have come and gone, but for most of those, it’s something you buy once before learning your lesson and never buying a second set.
This is where the science comes in from PureCare and their 100% Tencel™ linens. They aren’t just silky smooth to the touch from day one, but the cellulosic fibers they use make them gentle on the skin, too. With the elevated science behind it will be long-lasting for the months and years that I own these linens.
Breathable Sheets that Stay Cool
The most important thing that factors in when looking for linens is how well they will breathe. I’m from a tropical part of the world and my husband hails from the frozen tundra, and finding sheets that hit that sweet spot of keeping us both snug at night but not at all hot or uncomfortable is a tall task. I thought that my high thread count sheets were good enough, and now I see that’s all that they were: “good enough” but by no means amazing.
The Tencel™ cellulosic fibers are botanically crafted from nature, specifically a raw wood pulp from trees that is dissolved in a non-toxic organic solvent. They have that cool-to-touch feeling that you get when you first jump into a bed, and when I wake the next morning it’s that well-rested sleep that I usually only get when staying at a high-end hotel with premium bed and linens.
My husband’s exact words the next morning were “go buy three more sets of these stencil sheets!”… he got the word Tencel wrong but the message was loud and clear that we both loved our PureCare sheets.
Best Fitting Linens for Comfort and Looks
With the PureCare Elements collection, you also get sheets that fit mattresses perfectly whether standard or an adjustable base. I hate waking up to linens that are half of the mattress, and don’t see that happening much with these. They’re also crisp and show well, and even have advanced, patented technology in the corners of their sheets. One other nice touch is that their sheets have an additional 4” width on the flat sheets to give more coverage (which translates to less tug-of-war at night!).
I’d love to hear from my readers on your experiences with PureCare sheets and specifically the Elements Premium Tencel™ Sheet Set. I was honestly hesitant, but feel that I’ve suddenly been awakened to a better night’s sleep (if that makes any sense)!

I feel like I need these sheets. I've been wanting a new set, and these sound amazing.

OMG! These sheets would be perfect for my home. I have to look into getting them.

I have been wanting to upgrade my sheet life for a while. I saw some on QVC that I wouldn't mind trying but these look better.
Brianne Tursi Manz
I too never realized that science goes into bed sheets! By the sounds of these bed sheets, it may be time to upgrade!

I want a set of these sheets. I've got two sets now and neither are that great. It's sad that I can't even remember the best sheets that I have ever owned. Might be my flannel sheets in my younger days because they were soft.
I hate sheets that come off the bed. Mine do frequently because I have an adjustable bed.

Having the right bedding can make or break your night's rest. These sound like great sheets for a good night's sleep.

I need to invest in a new sheet set. I will have to check them out. I usually just wait until someone gifts sheets to me, but I need to purchase some.
Paula Schuck
Softer than silk!! OMG I need these asap. I'll be looking for them for Christmas.
Betty @ Mombrite
This sheet set is exactly what my husband and I look for when purchasing sheets for our bed. Since my husband "runs hot," sheets that stay cool and is breathable is very important. These would be great for my kids' beds too!
Shelley King
I am needing new sheets! The biggest problem I have with sheets is I burn up at night. Hearing you say they stay cool is an amazing selling point for me.
Kathy
Those look like amazing sheets. I'm always on the lookout for nice sheets. I really love white ones as well. I'll have to look more in to these.
Diana @ Nanny to Mommy
These looks like super comfy sheets. And so luxurious.
Marysa
I have been getting rid of a lot of our older sheets lately. Nothing worse than scratchy old sheets that are all pilled up! I will definitely have to check these out.

Sounds like a great sheet. Love the texture and the look. Surely dig into it more.
Ana
I'd love to have these sheets set as they look comfy and skin-friendly indeed! Thanks for sharing the review and your daughter is adorable!
Amber Killmon
I'm actually in the market for some new sheets. These look fantastic
John French
The sheets feel wonderful, but, my bottom sheet is big enough to cover my truck. Sides are WAY to long and do not stay tight. I have a wadded up mess under my when I wake up!!!!
