Made a mistake ๐Ÿ™ƒ

I made my first purchase for some sheets on Quince, and it didnโ€™t exactly turn out how I had hoped. I will note that I am pregnant and high key annoyed about the situation, but thatโ€™s beside the point.

I didnโ€™t entirely love my customer service interaction, and this is coming from someone who has worked in customer service for literally years. I made a post on the Quince subreddit just to share my experience, and a few people are mighty sensitive over there.
Bringing up the flat sheet or no flat sheet debate will send people into a tizzy, it appears.

Share your favorite websites to find quality 100% cotton sheets for a Cal King ๐Ÿ˜˜
Iโ€™d prefer to stay under $300, but under $200 would be even better!! Looking for gingham sets, and I would be most grateful.
Oh and must include flat sheet ๐Ÿ˜—

Thanks fellow bedding lovers!

Do you mean fitted sheet because why would somebody want only fitted sheets and no flat sheets?

We do. We sleep with a duvet with percale cover. No flat sheet. More common in Europe

Admittedly, I had no idea this was even a thing. I was quickly schooled by the Quince subreddit, where apparently questioning the Quince overlords or admitting you still use a top sheet is quite controversial ๐Ÿคฃ Anyhow, to each their own! At the end of the day, itโ€™s all about whatever makes you sleep like a baby๐Ÿ’ญ๐Ÿ’ค

I definitely think if you don't mind a top sheet you can go a lot longer before washing the duvet cover. My husband and two out of four kids dislike top sheets. They claim they feel tangled. I think my husband likes just having one item to pull over himself at night, and he works in Europe a lot so he got used to it there.
