Generally, it seems that sheet manufacturers haven't caught up with the trend toward "princess and the pea" mattresses. You know, the thick ones that are almost to heavy to turn and that strain the corner seams of not-quite-big-enough fitted sheets. It's frustrating.
I can't say whether this sheet actually fits an 18" mattress. What I do know is that it fits our 15" pillowtop with a little fabric to spare. Whew!
Shrinkage of linens is always a concern for me, one of those things I've learned by sad experience. What I'm doing to deal a delicate hand to this sheet is to wash and rinse it in cold water, only, and to dry it on low low low. The last of it can finish draped over the banister-cum-drying-rack.
One thing to be aware of is that, on the spectrum of crisp and crunchy to soft and snuggly, the sheet so far is pretty far out on the crisp/crunchy end of things. This is how I prefer cotton bed linens, and the pattern hides wrinkles pretty well, but it is not to everyone's taste.
We like flannel duvets with percale or cotton sheets. Pinzon 160-Gram Yarn-Dyed Flannel King Duvet Cover, Black/White Plaid looks just great with this sheet.Get more detail about Tommy Hilfiger Cold Spring 300 Thread Count 100-Percent Cotton Sateen King Fitted Sheet.
