This sheet is 100% Peruvian Pima cotton that is hand-selected by Peru Pima’s skilled craftsmen. The resources are ethically sourced and Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified, meaning that the contents are safe and unharmful to you or the environment. It comes with a four-piece bed sheet set that contains a flat sheet, a fitted sheet, and two pillowcases.

The percale weave that intricately makes up the sheets provides a breathable and smooth fabric that has a cooling freshness.

The weave and staple length of the sheet also gives the advantage of extra softness after every wash. Every wash will have your sheet feel softer and more comfortable.
All of this is the reason why Peru Pima provides sheets to some of the most well-known five-star hotels. The weight of the fabric is 4.4 pounds which is reasonably lightweight for such a high-quality product.

Peru Pima (400 thread count) 100% Peruvian, White
We have reviewed quite a few Peru Pima sheets here, which in itself is a good sign for this brand. They clearly are reliable and trustworthy with high-quality products. The 100% Peruvian Pima cotton sheet that is sourced and crafted in Peru by skilled craftspeople is a durable and Oeko Tex certified product. Meaning that its creation is not damaging to the environment and does not contain any chemicals. Sometimes products contain chemicals that can be damaging to your skin; therefore, it is important to note that Peru Pima’s products are all Oeko Tex Certified.
The product contains four pieces; one flat sheet, two pillowcases, and one fitted sheet that comes with a 15-inch-deep pocket and is fully elasticated for ease of use. The fabric is woven with a sateen weave that provides further comfort, softness, and breathability to the product.

The structure of this product means that it gains softness with every wash, providing you with a good night’s sleep. They are especially beneficial to those who are often too hot at night due to the natural cooling qualities of the fabric. The item weighs 4.5 pounds which is more than other sheets that we have looked at, some with a higher thread count.
- Oeko Tex Certified
- Trusted brand
- Elasticised
- Slightly heavier, 4.5 pounds
To summarise, I would recommend the Pinzon by Amazon (500 thread count) set, the Chateau Home Collection (500 thread count), or the Peru Pima (600 thread count). All of these have a high thread count and therefore are softer and more durable than those with a lower thread count. If I were to choose one, I think I would choose the Peru Pima. Despite the fact that it is slightly heavy in comparison to the Pinzon by Amazon or the Chateau Home collection, it does have a higher thread count and is a trusted brand with many of its products featured in this list. They are also a family-owned business that is manufactured in Peru, adding to the authenticity and quality of the product.
The reasonably high thread count means that the product will be softer than other sheets by the same brand that has a lower thread count. Therefore, I recommend the Peru Pima with a 600 thread count due to the increased durability and softness that the higher thread count promises. It is also worth noting that the higher thread count brings more breathability to the fabric and will provide a cool, refreshing feeling to your night times.
However, please note that this sheet also has pockets that are 14 inches deep, this is less than some of the others that are available on the market and that we have discussed today, so you should make sure that the sheet is suited to your own mattress.
