giddyup Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I haven't had much luck buying bed sheets in Pattaya. the first time I bought some 100% cotton sheets from the Outlet Mall that turned out to be rubbish and they weren't cheap. I have bought previously from Tesco and they scrimp on material so much there's barely enough to fit under the mattress or cover the top of the pillowcase. Today I bought two pair from Big C Extra for 800 baht each, that's for one fitted king size sheet, and two pillow cases and a bolster case. Didn't see until I opened one that the material is micro fiber which I hate, the pillowcases are absolutely huge, never going to find a pillow to fit them, and the bolster case goes in the bin or is used as a duster. There must be somewhere where I can buy decent polyester/cotton sheets in Pattaya. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robblok Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I bought some in Ikea (sorry not in Pattaya) and others in central. Central is more expensive as big C but the quality is better. It all depends what your willing to pay. For me Ikea is the best even though it means a bit of a trip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, it's a bit of a hike from Pattaya unless there's a few other things you want, but I can imagine their quality would be good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MJCM Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Central Soi 9 or Home Pro or Home Works have a good selection Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manarak Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 I bought a couple of nice sets that include Thai King Size sheet, duvet cover, 2 pillow cases from Central when they had a 50% off promotion. Otherwise such sets are quite expensive, 4k to 6k. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giddyup Posted December 18, 2015 Author Share Posted December 18, 2015 I understand why mates bring back all their towels and sheets from Australia, half the price and twice the quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oink Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 (edited) Get an iron Seriously, our local laundry only charges 50 baht each sheet to wash and iron fold and pack in a nice little bag. Sure up could run too that once a week. Sent from my KFASWI using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app Edited December 18, 2015 by Oink Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xen Posted December 18, 2015 Share Posted December 18, 2015 Not Pattaya but we bought some poly cotton a few months ago in the market stall section in Big C , both On-Nut Rd and in Rama 4 . Queen bed were about 400 baht . Good range of colours and they wash well. At that price if you even only get a 4-5 years out of them they are still worth while. I think the stalls are all connected or same suppliers so you will probably find them in Pattaya too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henryford Posted December 19, 2015 Share Posted December 19, 2015 I always buy from the bed shop at the top of Pattaya Klang, next to Sukhumvit. Just turn around the corner to the left where it's now closed off. Good quality and cheaper than most. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KittenKong Posted December 20, 2015 Share Posted December 20, 2015 Ikea Tell me where there is an Ikea in Pattaya. There isn't, but the BangNa one is an easy drive away. I went there two days ago to buy a desk, and previously I got an office chair and a mattress there. All were much better quality than anything I have seen in shops in Pattaya. Personally I have given up with textiles in Thailand. I get all my sheets, towels, dish-cloths, t-shirts, socks, handkerchiefs etc in the UK. The only exception is shorts of which the choice in the UK is poor (weather!). I found one style of good shorts that I liked here a couple of years and I bought many pairs of them which should last me for a few more years yet.
