The 10 Best Deep Pocket Sheets of 2024, Tested and Reviewed

If you struggle with putting a fitted sheet over your mattress, or you wake up after tossing and turning to find its corners have popped off your bed, a deep pocket sheet might help you solve your sleeping woes. Simply put, a deep pocket sheet is designed to fit over mattresses between 13 and 18 inches in depth, so it'll stay snug all through the night.

To find the best deep pocket sheets, we tested a wide variety of sheets made from all kinds of materials and weaves, evaluating their quality, texture, breathability, durability, and overall value to make our top picks. We also tapped Missy Tannen, founder and chief designer at Boll & Branch, for expert advice on how to shop for the perfect set.

What Stands Out

  • The breathable sheets are cozy and warm without being stifling—plus, they're the least expensive pick on our list.

What Could Be Improved

  • The pillowcase could be a bit wider.

It's not often that our Best Overall pick is also the least expensive, but such is the case with the Threshold 400 Thread Count Solid Performance Sheet Set. We were impressed with its durability, breathability, and soft feel. Able to fit mattresses up to 18 inches in depth, the fitted sheet fit perfectly on our bed, and the elastic corners kept it secure as we tossed and turned. "Top" and "bottom" tags were helpful for putting it on right the first time, too. Our only gripe is that the pillowcases could be a bit wider.

Crafted from 100% cotton, we consider these sheets to be of a medium density. The fabric felt soft against our skin, more so similar to the softness of flannel rather than fluff. Unlike other sheets sets that lose their coziness over time, these sheets started soft and stayed that way. They maintained their texture throughout two months of washing, feeling fresh after each laundering. We noticed no shrinkage or pilling whatsoever, and the elastic retained its grip. Our lotion stain also came out effortlessly after washing.

In addition to their soft texture, these sheets also stand out for their breathability. They have a fresh, cool hand feel that we found crisp and inviting. While lying beneath them in jeans, socks, and a t-shirt, they kept us comfortably warm without overheating or stifling us. Even on particularly hot nights, we remained sweat-free. Overall, these sheets performed with flying colors. Plus, their inexpensive price and Target's 365-day return policy make them an even more enticing purchase.
