Sambora Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 (edited) Hello, As the title says... where can I find good quality jersey fitted bed sheets which do not need ironing? I used to buy them in Germany for ~50 Euro/piece, they're easy to handle as they don't need ironing. Any idea where I can get them in Bangkok, either in-store or online? Thanks!

richard_smith237 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 I don’t know about non-iron... but pretty much any and every department store has a bedding section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CharlieH Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Homepro have good selection but can be on the high price end. Lazada or shopee are worth browse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jackdd Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 There are people who iron their bed sheets? I guess I don't have enough free time to get such ideas. You just use any random bed sheet, and a few hours after putting it on wrinkles are gone, doesn't need to be any special kind. Check the department stores like Robinson, sometimes they have sales which put the bed sheets in reasonable price regions, still expensive compared to Europe though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lopburi3 Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 (edited) Make very sure you get correct size - Thailand does not have same size standard as Europe or USA but they sell beds of all types. Don't just go by Queen or King without measuring and checking sheet is designed for the size you measure. Have found HomePro to be reasonable (for Thailand - always high priced for sheets).

Daffy D Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 The thickness of the mattress is also something to check.. Not all mattresses are the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indeed and many of us have toppers making it even thicker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it exists somewhere, but so far in my years in Thailand I think I've never come across a bed, mattress, or bed sheets which use the European metric system. I've always only seen the Twin (3.5ft), Queen (5ft), King (6tf) system being used in Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Length is likely to be shorter than elsewhere even using Q/K type size label. Scroll down on this link for official Thai size - but that can vary to other standards so you need to measure and be sure what you buy lists by measurements. https://the-pillow.com.au/resources/bed-sizes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lacessit Posted January 26, 2021 Share Posted January 26, 2021 Anything polyester will be non-iron, but maybe not as comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NancyL Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 Fitted sheets aren't a problem here. Now, if you really want to worry about something, you should contemplate flat sheets. Next to impossible to find good quality ones. And what's the deal with bolster pillow covers? King sets here are sold as a duvet cover, two pillow cases, a fitted sheet and two totally worthless bolster pillow covers. Who actually has bolster pillows? And what are you suppose to use for a flat sheet? Do Thai people sleep with a duvet year-round? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When required a light bed covering or blanket is garbed. Never do I want to return to toes trapped in a sheet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best just to buy one and check , this was our third attempt at getting something decent . Now I have that photo on my phone and I check all the details on the package to make sure I get the right one.
