To start off the white box that these come in is very nice and screams quality and luxury before you even open the package. I feel that you can tell you are getting a premium product when the company takes their packaging/display into account and makes it look desirable. After lifting the lid on the box there are some booklets you'll see and then the string tie bag your sheets are nicely packaged in. This is our first Pure Parima sheet set but I am assuming that they package the sheets in the same color carry bag as the sheets you ordered. I apologize, I did not take pictures of the packaging, but I can assure you it is very well done and looks and feels premium. We upgraded from 800 thread count $100 "Egyptian Cotton" sheets which were not CEA certified and also a thicker material that developed a tear after about 3 delicate wash and dry cycles. So far these Pure Parima sheets have seen 5 delicate wash and dry cycles and have no loose threads or indications of ware at all. Now onto these incredibly comfortable, luxurious, cool to the touch and perfect in every way sheets. I cannot stress enough how valuable a good night sleep is and since we as humans spend about 1/3 of our lives in bed, we deserve and need a good nights rest and I like to think we all deserve to be as comfortable as possible. I am so happy with the feel of these truly 100% CEA certified Egyptian Cotton sheets. I think that needs to be said because if there is no certification then they probably are not real Egyptian cotton. The feel of these sheets are out of this world soft, very cool to the touch and though the material is thin (which it should be) it feels very durable and so far has heald up to our 88lbs German Shepherd and 88lbs Black Lab jumping around on the sheets on our bed, no rips or tears and our dogs play very rough. Probably not the best thing to allow but at least you, the reader, have a better understanding of what these sheets can handle as far as durability is concerned. I always have been a hot sleeper and we paired these sheets with a Casper, The One mattress. I have been cool even with over night temps in the high 70's to low 80's (day time highs in the mid 90's) AC off at night we see around 75 degrees inside our house. That alone is a huge selling point since I am not sweating anymore at night. It is a huge relief and though the price might seem daunting, it was totally worth the purchase for that alone. The bottom sheet not only has deep pockets but also retainer straps (pictured) which keep the sheet secured in place and does not allow shifting of the sheet when getting in and out of bed, big plus there. A quick note is that the color does match well with the online purchase page colors. Keep in mind though that computer monitors, and screens of all kinds vary in hues and contrast and brightness. If you have a natural color setting on your screen, I would recommend trying that setting while viewing products online. The only thing and not a big deal to me but could be a downside for some is that these sheets do wrinkle after washing and drying. Always wash sheets like these on DELICATE cycle (pardon the caps) and drying on delicate cycle as well. That is a very important step to remember. Other than that I have nothing but high praise for these sheets and I absolutely believe if you make the choice to purchase a set, you will be blown away by the quality and comfort. I hope my review has helped with your decision.
