Tencel + Egyptian cotton for me as well.

One more pro: it's kind on the environment.

Pure cotton takes lots of water and land to cultivate, whereas tencel cotton takes much much less (iirc its 1/8).

My home uses mostly organic + environmentally friendly products so this was a big win for me!

tangs at vivocity had an additional 5% on top of the promotion 20% for the "higher end" bedsheets.

Bamboo sheets are also very popular nowadays. :)

TCs are also misleading, like Sarah said.

  • Same as me! My buns pee outside sometimes when they're miffed at me, that's why I ended up with tiles too.

    Love the door without the gate!!! Hmm. Makes me so tempted. Haha. Have you considered getting a digital peephole viewer for extra security?  Those are so affordable and useful IMO!  Your din

    OMG your door looks mag! The texture and design! Makes me tempted too! The digital lock looks amazing too! Glad you "talked" me into buying it too!

Oh ya! Vinegar not only cleans organically, but restores softness on towels and bedsheets :)

Wow see you guys talk about bed sheets make me feel like buy new sheets liao.

I been using Kinu from Robinson, or their house brand.

See you guys talk about Tencel, maybe I should get it to try it as well, by the way is it costly?

Time for carpentry and colour selection.

If me I will go for the Paris Green, but if I can choses I will go for the Burnswick :P

Paris green for me as well but the tangerine is cheery too! See what you are using for counter top. If dark then tangerine, if white then green.. ✌

If me I will go for the Paris Green, but if I can choses I will go for the Burnswick :P

Hi Sarah

I just wash them as normal. I've been using them for the past 3 years, nothing has changed. I wouldn't know about the anti-bacterial properties lasting forever, but I guess it's better than normal sheets that do not have them. HTH!

I just googled for the tencel fabric and bamboo fabric care instructions. Walau I have been washing my tencel bed linens wrong past three years by using machine wash with 30 degree temperature and 1200 spin speed, and machine dry them instead of drip dry! But the texture and color remains the same leh, maybe only the anti-bacterial properties are destroyed: )

Thats another incentive to use vinegar!

Hey Nextstep,

Like what others have said, look out for the deals from Tangs, Taka or Robinsons. Many brands still do not carry tencel sheets, so gotta ask the staff (not promoters) directly. I got my King Koil set for less than $200 (king size) during Black Friday. So with Xmas up next week, might be a good time to check beddings !

I think nobody uses these wall plug nowadays but I may also be wrong. Maybe you can drop Hdb a call just in case.
