How long do Olive + Crate TENCEL™ sheets last?Updated 2 months ago
The lifespan of any sheet set depends on how it's used and cared for. With proper care, you can expect our TENCEL™ sheets to last at least two years and often longer.
Factors such as how frequently the sheets are used (e.g. in rotation with other sets), how they're laundered, and whether they’re line-dried or tumble-dried can all impact longevity.
TENCEL™ lyocell is a naturally soft and breathable fiber known for its luxurious feel, but it's not as rugged as cotton. That said, our sheets are thoughtfully designed and rigorously tested, including lab tests for pilling and we back them with a lifetime warranty against manufacturing defects. This includes issues like seams coming apart, buttons loosening, or fabric tearing due to faults in craftsmanship or materials. Normal wear and tear, however, is not covered.
To help your sheets last longer, we recommend:
- Washing in cold water on a gentle cycle
- Using mild, liquid detergents without bleach or brighteners
- Avoiding high heat in the dryer; line drying is ideal
If you’re rotating your sets and following care instructions, many of our customers find they enjoy their sheets for well beyond two years.
