Best Brooklinen bedding and sheet sets

Top pick: Brooklinen Luxe Sateen Core Sheet Set. It's the one most people should start with — a smooth, slightly lustrous cotton sateen that feels soft from the first night, comes as a complete set, and is the easiest Brooklinen choice to love without knowing your sleep style.

Who the others suit:

• Classic Percale Core Sheet Set — if you sleep hot or like that crisp, cool, hotel-style feel; it's the breathable, matte counterpart to sateen.
• Washed Classic Percale — same crisp cotton, but pre-stonewashed so it's broken-in and soft out of the bag.
• European Washed Linen — for a relaxed, rumpled look and the best airflow in summer; linen is the airiest option here.
• Heathered Cashmere — the splurge for cold rooms and a brushed, cozy hand.
• All-Season Down Comforter and Breezeweave quilt — the layers to finish the bed; the comforter is the year-round one, the quilt the light summer cover.

If you want the full look, pair a sheet set with the comforter or quilt rather than buying two sheet sets.
