Overall I thought these sheets were incredibly soft and lightweight. I had no issues with breathability or pilling. However, the sheets do wrinkle very easily and require a little extra care with washing and drying.

Pros and Cons of each sheet set
This video highlights the key pros and cons of each set.Who Might Choose…
- People should pick Cariloha Classic if they want to splurge on high-quality sheets and are willing to pay nearly $200 for a Queen set.
- People should pick Cariloha Classic if they feel strongly about the environmental and want transparency regarding the manufacturing processes of bamboo fiber. Cariloha’s video on the topic is available here.
- People should pick Linenspa if they are looking for soft bamboo sheets but want to spend around or less than $100 (prices vary by color).
- People should pick Linenspa if wrinkling is a non-issue and they want a stone/slate/grey color as this is not a color option in the Cariloha set.

Overall
Each set of sheets is incredibly soft and available in a variety of colors. Their care instructions are relatively the same (machine wash cold and gentle; tumble dry low). However, Linenspa recommends a medium iron while Cariloha suggests it if necessary. Both sheets were prone to wrinkles so I would say if people do not like wrinkly sheets they should expect to need to iron these – even if they put them on their bed as soon as they’re done in the dryer.
The Cariloha and the Linenspa sheets feel lighter in comparison to their cotton counterparts, but the Cariloha Classic set stayed lightweight and soft the whole time, while Linenspa got stiff and heavy when I pulled them out of the washer.
I personally had fit issues with the Linenspa sheets and did not feel like they laid on my bed as well as the Cariloha Classic sheets did.
However, both companies offer satisfaction guarantees, so there is less risk to giving Linenspa a shot if it’s closer to your price range (or you really want grey sheets!).
