Oh well...I guess all good things come to an end?

Regarding sheets: the microfiber sheets are smooth and soft, but they "pill" terribly and are hot due to the polyester in them. I, too, constantly look for decent sheets and have trouble finding them. For flannel sheets, I've found that either Bass Pro Shops or Cabela's have good sturdy, soft flannels. Lately, I've been using sheets from Ocean State Job Lots and they are wearing decently.
I think people abused that policy. One time we were at their Freeport Maine store and a guy returned boots that were literally worn out from wear. That's ridiculous. I don't blame them for changing their policy.

I received an email from llbean explaining the change in the refund policy. I order a fair amount of things from them. I don't have a problem with a one year return policy. They said that people have been buying things at garage sales and then returning them and I can see that happening. I believe that you can surely tell within a year if an item is going to hold up or not.

I bought these sheets last year as a "treat" and have never been so pleased and comfortable along with a new electric velour blanket. My husband doesn't believe in them so his side is never turned on.
