The Idea of Jersey Bedding Made Me Hesitant Initially, but Then I Tried Cozy Earth's Bamboo Jersey Sheets — And, Wow, I'm a Convert

Are you waking up and not feeling rested? Are you dreaming of lying your head down after a long day, only to find yourself tossing and turning? If you answered yes to either of these questions (or both, like me), it may be time to invest in better bedding. And, after testing Cozy Earth's Bamboo Jersey sheets, I may have found just the upgrade you're looking for.

I've always been someone who seriously considered the type of sheets I dress my bed with, as it's not lost on me that the quality of your bedding can elevate your entire experience. Egyptian cotton has always been at the top of my list, and as of late, linen sheets have been higher on the agenda. But jersey fabric? That was a hard no.

Until now. So, how did Cozy Earth's Bamboo Jersey sheets flip my script? After three weeks of sleeping on them, washing, and repeating, I found that they completely challenged what I thought I knew about the fabric. The sheets are stretchy (enough so to firmly hug the bed), breathable, and ultrasoft.

As a result, I've become a jersey-sheet convert. But are they the right sheets for you? Here's my honest review of this viral US-based bedding brand's sheets, and what to expect should you choose to shop them for yourself.

Are the Cozy Earth Bamboo Jersey Bedsheets Good Quality?

From opening the packing, I knew that these sheets were going to be different than my regular crisp cotton sheets. Mostly because of the sheer weight of the set — honestly, I couldn't believe how heavy it was.

First up: the touch test. I expected jersey to mean super soft (too soft), but the bamboo vs cotton material gives this set a bouncier, more breathable character. The stretch is akin to your favorite exercise set, while the softness is reminiscent of your favorite plain white tee.

There is a double stitch along every seam, and the elastic band on the fitted sheet is actually strong enough to hold onto your mattress through the night. Anyone who's dealt with pesky sheet corners knows this is a major win.

It's all sunshine and roses so far, but how do the Cozy Earth Bamboo Jersey sheets hold up after washing? Full disclosure: I don't have an in-unit dryer, so that affects my experience. It took about two days (and some time near the radiators) for the sheets to dry completely, but once they were, they kept their form and texture beautifully. One thing I will note is that after about one month of consistent wearing and washing, there is slight picking happening already, especially where your body would lie.

Overall, I'd say that this bamboo jersey sheet set thoroughly impressed me in both the quality of material and comfort. But how has my sleep improved?

How are the Cozy Earth Bamboo Jersey Bedsheets to Sleep In?

It's like with T-shirts: you question how a plain T-shirt could ever cost £75 until you feel the material. And if those T-shirts make a difference to your outfit, surely these sheets could change the way I sleep. Despite my reservations, the softness of the Cozy Earth Bamboo Jersey sheets feels just as luxurious to sleep in as it did upon initial impression.

For context, I tested the sheets for about one month, washing between the first and second weeks. At the time of testing, November's winter weather was settling in London — temperatures were around 3 to 9 degrees Celsius at night.

I was excited to test this bedding as the touch test alone removed any of my initial reservations. And yes, sleeping on them proved to be a similar experience. The bedding was soft, had just enough weight to maximize coziness without feeling stuffy, and kept me warm through the night.

I opted for the white as, for me, it's the best bedding color for a restful sleep. I also have a mattress topper on my bed, so even though my mattress isn't thick, I often struggle with fitted sheets coming loose during the night. However, as mentioned, the Cozy Earth Bamboo Jersey Fitted Sheet is large enough to almost be considered a deep fitted sheet, and has a strong elasticated band around it that helps it stay in place all night long.

Composition-wise, the sheets are made of 93 percent bamboo viscose and seven percent spandex, which explains their breathability and temperature-regulating ability. Paired with the knit design and meticulous stitching, its durability meets style.

How Does Cozy Earth Rank on Style?

In terms of style, there is not so much more to say other than that these are your very standard white bed sheets. They look crisp and clean when made on the bed, but I wouldn't venture so far as to say they stand out style-wise from something like an Egyptian cotton sheet set.

The main thing to note here is that they are a bit weightier and have a quality knit construction. I noticed that I was able to smooth out any wrinkles more easily and style the sheets in a way that I can't always achieve with crisper cotton or silk.

Cozy Earth's Bamboo Jersey sheets also come in light blue, stone, and driftwood brown — a very earthy and sleep-promoting collection.

Are the Cozy Earth Bamboo Jersey Bedsheets Worth It?

Cozy Earth's Bamboo Jersey bedding is expensive for a sheet set, yes, but I'd argue that it's one where you can really feel the difference in quality when it comes to sleeping. Overall, this is a bedding I'd invest in.

And when it comes to where to buy bamboo bedding, it's also worth noting that Cozy Earth's pricing is similar to many of its competitors. At £150 for a king-size flat sheet, it is pretty much on par with what you can find elsewhere (and it's currently on sale).

That being said, investing in Cozy Earth's set isn't the most expensive sheet option, but it's still an investment in something more luxurious. The prices are higher, but you'll have a sturdier build and a noticeably more comfortable sleep. Of course, you can shop for more affordable alternatives to high-end bedding, but you may lose some of the quality.

I hadn't tried anything from Cozy Earth before testing these bamboo jersey sheets, but I will be back for more. Perhaps even with the matching Cozy Earth bamboo viscose comforter.
