Who knew that perhaps two of the most motivating words in the English language —“flash sale”— could inspire visions of a deep, tranquil night’s sleep? For The Company Store’s semi-annual sale, this certainly is the case. The beloved bedding brand, adored by many an AT editor, is offering up to 20 percent off the entire site until July 28. As an added bonus, the sale even includes a buy-one-get-one deal where you can get one of their cozy comforters at 25 percent off and snag a pillow for 50 percent off using the code G21BOGO through July 20. Famed for its hotel-level Supima cotton sheets (that also happen to be wrinkle-free!), organic linens, and gorgeous linen duvet covers, the brand is also well-known for its other household essentials, like bath towels and shower curtains. And you can’t go wrong with the fact that the The Company Store has made a few appearances on our Best Lists — namely for comforters (best all-season comforter) and cotton percale sheets (best organic).

Tuft & Needle has nine candles to blow out, but you’ll be the one getting the birthday gift! To celebrate their ninth year in business, the bedding company is having a birthday sale and slashing the entire site by 15 percent off today through August 9. That gives you plenty of time to peruse, but we’re going to insist you check out two of their Best List-approved sheets: Their budget-friendly cotton percale sheets and also their colorful and cozy jersey sheets.
AT editors loved the attainable price point of the Tuft & Needle cotton percale sheet set, which rings in at a jaw-dropping $85 for a queen size during the birthday sale. “They’re not as soft as some of their other sheets, which actually was a plus for me, because I felt like they were more breathable since they’re so light and thin,” said commerce coordinator Emily. That lightweight characteristic makes these dreamy sheets ideal for year-round use. Another thing to love about them is since they’re designed to feel crisp and cool, you’ll get that freshly laundered sensation every single night. Who doesn’t love the feel of fresh, clean sheets? Plus, the percale weave is strong, making the set super durable.
The Tuft & Needle jersey sheet set is equally lounge-worthy. During the sale, they’re just $59.50 for a queen size, and yes, that does include a fitted sheet, top sheet, and two pillowcases. They feel like a cozy vintage T-shirt for your bed and are incredibly soft from the first day you put them on. Made from a blend of cotton and Tencel Lyocell, these naturally moisture-wicking fabrics promise to keep you cool all night (even if you get the sleepy sweats) as well as prevent pilling and wrinkling. Another bonus: They have natural stretch, so you won’t wake up to find one corner of your bed exposed. “I move around a lot in my sleep, but these sheets still look as crisp as they did when I put them on my bed!” commerce intern Olivia says. “I have no doubt they’d withstand a lot of washes, and they’re a fairly affordable option for higher quality sheets.”
Another thing that will give you sweet dreams is both sets of sheets only get better with time, since they get softer with every wash. Shop them during the Tuft & Needle birthday sale while you can!

Sometimes, you have to actually experience better quality bedding to know you’d been doing it all wrong. I learned that firsthand after investing in Brooklinen’s Classic Cotton Percale Sheets — one of the brand’s most popular sheet sets and the best overall percale set on our Best List. Made from long-staple cotton with a percale weave, these sheets were made to mimic that hotel-style sleep experience you typically only get when vacationing somewhere fancy. Not only do these sheets totally live up to the hype, but they’ve single-handedly raised the bar for how I shop for bedding… and I’ll never go back.
Back in my broke college student days, I never really put much thought into the type of sheets I’d buy. Any time I needed to replace my worn out sheets, I’d browse the aisles of my favorite discount store looking for sheets that suited my color preference and my wallet. A complete queen-sized set under $40? Deal! It was in my shopping cart in no time. Not only was I super cheap when it came to sheets, but I also didn’t give much thought to the quality of the material. If the label said they were cooling sheets, I believed it without researching which fabric the sheets were made of. Big mistake. Huge.
After reading tons of positive reviews on Brooklinen’s Classic Core Sheet Set, I became convinced it was finally time to be an adult about my bedding selection and invest a little more money on sheets that would not only last, but get softer and cozier over time. I chose the set in the Window Pane pattern. I hadn’t always been a white sheet enthusiast, but the simplistic look of this design actually made my bed look cozier. “Off to a great start already,” I thought.
As for the feel of the sheets, I noticed an immediate transformation after washing them for the first time. They were initially a little stiff right out of the package — which is not always a cause for concern when it comes to percale — but felt airy, soft, and crisp when I removed them from the dryer. Putting them on the bed was a breeze, thanks to the convenient “long side” and “short side” labels on the fitted sheet. Seriously, where had these sheets been all my life?
Though I have since bought and tested many well-made cotton sheets from several other brands, I have no qualms about stamping the Brooklinen classic percale sheets as my all-time favorite. With a 270 thread count, these sheets are light and completely breathable, making them ideal for hot summer nights. And while the sheets were already soft to the touch, they’ve only gotten better with each wash, developing a sort of lived-in quality that makes you want to lounge in them all day. The set truly makes getting out of bed a challenge, which speaks to how darn comfortable they are. I no longer have to wait until vacation to get that luxurious, restful sleep I thought only existed with hotel bedding.
And here’s some very good news: Brooklinen’s entire site, including these beloved cotton percale sheets, is currently on sale for 15 percent off until July 7 at 11:59p.m. Add the set to your cart, enter code SUMMER15, and watch the prices fall. Take it from a gal whose sleep has totally been changed: This is the perfect time to upgrade your bedding and never look back.
