Question 1

How do you wash bamboo sheets?

Accepted Answer

Bamboo bed sheets are best cared for by washing in warm water with an eco-friendly liquid detergent, and drying on medium heat. Proper washing will extend their life; you can expect to get 5-6 years from your linens with proper laundering. Using hot water and high heat can cause any linens to pill. Bamboo has natural bacteria-resistance, so there is no need to use bleach.

Question 2

What detergent do you use on bamboo sheets?

Accepted Answer

We recommend a mild liquid detergent like Ecos, Mrs. Myers, Woolite, Seventh Generation, ECover, or Kirkland Ultra Clean. Avoid bleach, fabric softeners, washer balls, or dryer sheets, as harsher detergents can break down the fibers and shorten the lifespan of the linens.

Question 3

Do bamboo sheets wrinkle?

Accepted Answer

They will get a soft wrinkle when you sleep on them but will not form hard creases like cotton sheets. Our linens are not coated with formaldehyde to make them wrinkle-resistant, offering a healthier and more eco-conscious product.

Question 4

Do bamboo sheets shrink?

Accepted Answer

Viscose from Bamboo will shrink the first time you wash them, but we’ve oversized the linens to account for shrinkage. Bamboo tends to ‘grow’ slightly as you sleep on it, but after each wash, they return to a snug fit.

Question 5

Can bamboo sheets go in the dryer?

Accepted Answer

Yes, we recommend drying on medium heat. Fluff them toward the end of the cycle and let them dry fully for another 10-15 minutes.

Question 6

Can bamboo sheets be bleached?

Accepted Answer

We do not recommend using bleach on bamboo bed sheets. Bamboo fabrics are naturally resistant to bacteria. For tough stains or odors, soak them with vinegar or a chlorine-free spot remover before running the wash.

Question 7

What thread count are bamboo sheets?

Accepted Answer

BedVoyage bamboo linens have a thread count of 300, which provides a perfect balance of breathability and a silky feel. High thread counts don’t necessarily equate to better comfort; our bamboo sheets offer luxurious softness with a 300 thread count.

Question 8

Will oil stains come out of bamboo sheets?

Accepted Answer

Yes, oil or lotion stains can be removed by prewashing with ¼ cup Dawn dishwashing liquid or using a chlorine-free stain remover like Oxy Clean. You can also use a mixture of 1-part white vinegar to 4-parts water before laundering.

Question 9

How deep is the fitted sheet?

Accepted Answer

Our fitted sheet is 18” deep with elastic all the way around, ensuring a snug fit on both shallow and deep mattresses.

Question 10

Will the fitted sheet fit my pillow-top mattress?

Accepted Answer

Yes, with an 18” depth, our fitted sheets fit most pillow-top mattresses. We recommend measuring your mattress depth to ensure a proper fit.

Question 11

Can I iron bamboo sheets?

Accepted Answer

Yes, bamboo sheets can be ironed with high heat and steam. Alternatively, drying on high heat for the last 10 minutes can reduce wrinkles if removed promptly.

Question 12

Are bamboo sheets warm, or cold?

Accepted Answer

Bamboo sheets are thermoregulating, meaning they help keep you cool when you’re warm and retain warmth when you’re cold, offering year-round comfort.

Question 13

Can I wash bamboo sheets in hot water?

Accepted Answer

While occasional washing in hot water will not harm the sheets, frequent use of hot water can cause shrinkage and pilling. We recommend washing in cool or medium temperatures.

Question 14

How long will bamboo sheets last?

Accepted Answer

With proper care, bamboo sheets typically last 5-6 years if used regularly. If you rotate between several sets, they can last even longer.

Question 15

Can I buy extra pillowcases?

Accepted Answer

Yes, additional pillowcases can be purchased separately. Please visit our Pillowcase page for more information.

Question 16

Can I hang dry bamboo sheets?

Accepted Answer

Yes, bamboo sheets can be hang dried. To restore their silky softness, toss them in the dryer on medium heat for 5-10 minutes.

Question 17

Can I get pet hair out of bamboo sheets?

Accepted Answer

Yes, pet hair can be removed during laundering or with a lint roller. Bamboo sheets are less likely to snag and accumulate pet fur due to their antibacterial and anti-static properties.

Question 18

What is Bamboo Viscose and Rayon from Bamboo?

Accepted Answer

Bamboo Viscose and Rayon from Bamboo are terms used to describe the process of breaking down bamboo stalks into fibers. The Federal Trade Commission requires that either term be used to describe bamboo fabric.

Question 19

Do the colors fade?

Accepted Answer

No, our bamboo sheets are dyed using reactive dyes that keep colors deep and true. To prevent bleeding, we recommend laundering lights with lights and darks with darks.
