For some people, shopping for new sleep essentials is exciting. Thinking about sliding into a new set of soft, cool sheets under a fluffy comforter might have you eagerly adding things to your shopping cart as you fantasize about finally getting a good night’s rest. For others, it’s a task that brings no joy but must be completed anyway, like making a dentist’s appointment. No matter where you fall on the spectrum, we’ve gathered top-rated bedding sets and comforter sets to shop in 2023.

Some of these bedding sets come with basically everything except the mattress. We’re talking sheets, comforters, duvet covers, and even pillows. Others are a bit more streamlined but still have everything you need. From breezy bedding sets for hot sleepers to twin XL comforter sets to send with your college student as they move into the dorms, there’s a set here that you’ll like. We’ve even included a couple of bedding sets for kids and newborns if you’re looking to give the whole family a bedding upgrade. Plus, there’s a set here that’s earned the coveted title of being one of Oprah’s favorite brands.

Shopping for the best bedsheets can be overwhelming, as there are a number of different types of fabrics. Here’s a general rundown of the most common materials and who they’re best suited for:

Since we’re rounding up the best bedding, it’s also worth mentioning what thread count means. As the Sleep Foundation (as well as many bedding brands) point out, “thread count is a measure of the number of threads woven into one square inch of fabric. Essentially, it’s a measure of how tightly woven a fabric is.” Many agree that thread count isn’t the best measure of the quality of bedsheets, and generally the tighter the weave, the heavier and more wrinkle-resistant the material will be. Lower thread count fabrics will be looser and often more breathable.

Whether you’re looking to treat yourself to a luxury bedding set or need something affordable for the guest room, there’s sure to be a bedding set here for you. In addition to sleeping on some of these sheets ourselves, We’ve scoured dozens of product reviews and detailed descriptions to find the best bedding sets you can buy now.

BEST BEDDING SET OVERALL

Starting at nearly $500, Brooklinen’s upgraded Luxe Sateen Move-In Bundle isn’t cheap, but it’s worth it for both the quality and the quantity — and if you shop through Aug. 30, you can score 15 percent off during the brand’s Staycation Sale with the code SUMMER15. The bundle includes a fitted sheet, flat sheet, duvet cover, four pillowcases, one comforter, two pillows and a free silk eye mask.

You’ll have the chance to customize your bedding, choosing between different colors and different weights and fill materials for the comforter and pillow. We’re fans of Brooklinen’s smooth, soft cotton sheets that feature a buttery finish, which we’ve found to be suitable year-round in LA weather. Reviewers also love the feel of the 100 percent cotton sheets and the supportive pillows, which the brand says are ideal for most sleepers. And if you don’t agree, no sweat — Brooklinen allows most of their products to be returned within 365 days. (Nicole Richie and celebrity DJ Hannah Bronfman are among the brand’s starry fans.)

While classic white bedding goes with any decor, this set is also available in a range of other colors, including sage green, black, pink and gray.

BEST LUXURY BEDDING SET

BEST KIDS BEDDING SET

If you’re in need of new bedding for the kiddos, the Company Store offers a variety of organic cotton bedding in kid-friendly designs, from classic gingham to fun prints of animals, fairies, florals, outer space and more. Each set includes flat and fitted sheets, plus a standard sham with twin sizes or two shams with full or queen sizes. We like that organic cotton is a safe choice for kids and the planet earth, as the fabric tends to be more durable than regular cotton and it’s grown in a pesticide-free process (which is better for the environment and safe for kids with allergies and sensitive skin).

BEST BEDDING SET FOR BABIES

If you’re expecting (or looking for a thoughtful gift for a friend or family member who is), these crib sheets get tons of love from parents. They’re 100 percent organic cotton and available in a wide range of adorable prints. One reviewer shared, “I need these sheets in adult bed size. They’re sooooo soft, I’ve washed them a few times now and they’re just as elastic and soft as the first use. They have a nice stretch to them, but not so much that I worry about them bunching up or not being sleep safe.” If you’re looking to make it a complete bedding bundle, the brand also sells wearable blankets that are safe for babies.

BEST PET HAIR-RESISTANT COMFORTER SET

If Fido’s charmed their way into your bed, you know that pet hair can quickly become a nuisance when it comes to bedding. Luckily, this affordable comforter set from Amazon looks elegant and actually resists pet hair, according to reviewers. One person shared, “I didn’t think it was possible … No more dog hair in my mouth or on my clothes!” We’d say that’s definitely cause for celebration. This set only comes with a comforter and pillowcases so you’ll have to buy sheets separately, but assuming your pet lays on the comforter and not between the sheets, it should do the trick.

BEST BEDDING SET FOR AIRBNB

If you manage an Airbnb property, you probably want bedding that’s comfortable but doesn’t break the bank. The Wayfair Basics Lightweight bed-in-a-bag set fits the bill, and includes a comforter, sheets, pillowcases, shams, and even a bed skirt for a put-together look. It’s all machine-washable, making it easy to turn over between guests. And it’s affordable enough that you can have two or three sets in rotation to make sure there are always fresh sheets available. A few reviews do note that the comforter is lightweight, so if you live somewhere where the temps might drop, it could be a good idea to leave an extra blanket or quilt for guests.
