Cariloha Bamboo Sheets Review

Cariloha currently sells three distinct sheet tiers: Classic and Resort in viscose from bamboo, and Retreat in bamboo-derived lyocell.

Current line: Cariloha currently lists Classic from $199, Resort from roughly $249 with many live configurations around $289, and Retreat from $339. Direct sheet purchases carry a 100-night trial according to the current collection pages.

Current sheet tiers

Classic	From $199 · 100% viscose from bamboo · twill weave
Resort	From $249; many current live configurations $289 · 100% viscose from bamboo · sateen weave
Retreat	From $339 · bamboo-derived lyocell · sateen weave

What changed since Yawnder’s older coverage

The brand now separates viscose and lyocell more clearly than many older “bamboo sheet” articles did. That distinction matters: both are regenerated cellulose, but they use different manufacturing processes and should not be described as raw bamboo fiber.

Feel and use case

Classic is the value tier; Resort is smoother and more hotel-like; Retreat is the premium lyocell line. All three lean softer and more drapey than crisp cotton percale.

Cooling claims: Cariloha markets strong temperature-regulating benefits. Yawnder treats those as brand claims rather than a measured guarantee; real-world heat depends on the finished fabric and sleeper.

Ettitude Bamboo Sheets Review: Silky Lyocell Feel

10/19/202602/21/2020 by Ben Trapskin

Ettitude sheets are smooth silky bamboo sheets that are breathable and super soft. They are the perfect alternative to silk. If you haven’t tried lyocell bamboo sheets, then you’re missing out, especially if you tend to sleep hot. There are many materials now aside from cotton that are designed to help you sleep more comfortably. Bamboo sheets are probably the closest in feel to silk without all the high maintenance and cost that comes with silk sheets. Aside from sheets, Ettitude also offers duet inserts, pajamas, and towels. I received a free duvet and a summer weight duvet insert so I could see how they compare to other popular bamboo sheet brands.

Ordering Your Ettitude Bedding

You can order these sheets directly through the Ettitude website. When you order these sheets you get free shipping as well as a 30-day trial. Just keep in mind that the 30-day trial is only for bedding and not for any clothing or duvet inserts. My Ettitude Sheets arrived in a box like the one below.

Inside I found the duvet insert which comes in bamboo packaging to keep the duvet clean. You can also use it to store your duvet when not in use which I highly recommend over plastic as the bamboo is breathable and will keep the duvet insert fresh.

Here it is unzipped.

This package also has a zipper to make it easy to close.

How Much Do Ettitude Sheets Cost?

My Ettitude Findings

I really enjoy bamboo sheets in the summer months since they are so light and airy but they are also great all year round, especially if you just tend to sleep hot in general. A big mistake is to buy some bamboo sheets and use them with a heavy comforter thinking it will solve your hot sleeping problems. Your best bet is to get the lightweight, Whitehaven comforter so that you still have great, cozy-looking bed without the need to kick the comforter off a few minutes after getting under the covers. Here’s a picture of the comforter out of the box. As you can see it is thin and won’t trap that much heat but is still something that covers you.

The comforter has stitched in loops on all four corners so that you can tie your duvet cover to it.

The Ettitude duvet cover also has loops so they can be tied together.

The duvet cover also has buttons at the bottom. I usually prefer a zipper but these buttons were easy to snap and didn’t take much time.

Here’s a picture of the comforter with bamboo duvet cover on my sofa bed.

My Ettitude Recommendation

Bamboo Sheets are a great choice not only for hot sleepers but for anyone who prefers a super soft and silky feel. I have found that bamboo sheets are more prone to wrinkling than even cotton sheets so make sure you put them on your bed right after taking them out of the dryer. I really don’t mind if they look wrinkled. For me, it’s all about the feel. I like that Ettitude has a whole bedding solution. They are also about the middle of the road in terms of price, not too expensive but not exactly cheap. But they aren’t cheap feeling sheets either and should last longer than the bargain bamboo sheets you can find on Amazon. In addition, you can take advantage of the 30 night trial with the sheets to make sure you absolutely love them.

Frequently Asked Questions About Ettitude Sheets Review (2026): Pros, Cons & Verdict

Are Ettitude sheets worth the price?

My original Ettitude sample felt very smooth and was marketed as bamboo-derived lyocell. The $229 queen price is historical, not a current quote, and environmental claims require reviewing the exact fiber processing and certifications.

Who are Ettitude sheets best for?

Ettitude sheets are best for hot sleepers or anyone who appreciates a silky, ultra-soft feel and breathability in their bedding. Their bamboo material allows for excellent airflow, which helps maintain a comfortable body temperature even on warm nights.

How do Ettitude sheets compare to traditional silk?

Ettitude sheets offer a luxurious blend of comfort and breathability that makes them an excellent replacement for traditional silk. They provide next-level smoothness while also being environmentally friendly due to their sustainable bamboo sourcing.

What are the downsides of Ettitude bedding?

The original sheets had a comparatively premium price and a stated trial, but return conditions can change and differ by product category. Compare fabric care and current seller terms rather than relying on the original 30-day wording.

Are Ettitude sheets good for hot sleepers?

Bamboo-derived lyocell can feel smooth and handle moisture differently from cotton, which some warm sleepers prefer. It is not guaranteed to stay cool for everyone, and this review does not establish that the original Ettitude set is stocked or recommended in our showroom.

Where can I try Ettitude products in person?

This older Ettitude review does not confirm that the original sheet set is available in a physical store. Check Ettitude's current retail listings and call Yawnder before visiting to seek a specific bedding product.

Layla Bamboo Sheets Review: Original Hands-On Test

10/19/202603/17/2019 by Ben Trapskin

[Tagline]

I received a set of white sheets from Layla, but I thought that I had received a bedside table from a furniture retailer. When my roommates asked me what I could’ve possibly gotten that was so large, we all found ourselves a bit bewildered when the answer was “sheets.”

I opened the box and found… mostly nothing except for some industrial plastic wrap. At the very very bottom of the box, in a distant corner, was a dense box tightly sealed in more plastic. After retrieving the box from the abyss.

I’ve gotten some overzealous packaging from Amazon, but never have I ever received something in a box 12 times the size of the actual object. I think they wanted the box in pristine condition which may explain the bix box. I don’t think this will be the case goine forward.

This is a very new product so as of this writing there isn’t too much information about the product on the website but that will change.

The product box was breathtaking. This was not just any cardboard box, they somehow managed to make this box look like the Mercedes-Benz of boxes. The corners and seams were sturdy and perfect. The clamshell mechanism fit like a dream, and slid over the edge perfectly. All parts of the cardboard box were covered in fancy, smooth, matte gray paper. The box looked like it was made of two pieces, but the hinge was made so well that it opened to only 90°. The graphic design was impeccable—the fonts and colors were perfect, and the inner flap donned a two-tone gray gingham pattern that complemented the whole package so well. The inner flap read “YOUR NEW SHEETS HAVE ARRIVED,” which made the aesthetic experience all the more real. These were my sheets and I was ready to love them.

After opening the clamshell I found yet more plastic wrap, but the dense pile of folded sheets looked so perfect I didn’t want to disturb the chic package. After revelling in its glory, I broke down and opened the inner package.

Layla Bamboo Construction

The sheets were shiny, but not as reflective as the Heavenluxe set. Most of the seams were neat and hidden well, but some of the seams were boldly emblazoned in the very same dark gray that was used on the box.

The sheets were soft and smooth, living up to all the good things I’ve heard about bamboo sheets. I ran the sheets through a cold wash and a tumble dry on low and they came out even softer. There was some minor shrinkage, but nothing too concerning—the pocket depth started at 14.5in (15.25in with the elastic band) and ended at 13in (14.5in with the elastic band).

When I brought the sheets up to my room to make my bed, I noticed they felt abnormally hefty. When I shook them out against my mattress, they made a thunderous noise unlike any sound I’ve heard a fabric make—it sounded like muffled clapping. The fitted sheet fit snugly without any ripples, and the flat sheet sat on top smoothly. By this point it was 3am and I was still awake for some reason, so after making my bed I really needed a perfect set of sheets to help me doze off as fast as possible.

My Layla Bamboo Findings

When those sheets touched my skin, they didn’t even feel like they were made of fabric—they felt so delicate and liquid like in a strange indescribable way. The sheets definitely felt heavier and more durable than the Heavenluxe sheets, but somehow they had a kind of ethereality about them that surpasses every experience I’ve ever had with any fabric. Sometimes all I think about at night is how amazing it will feel to pass out sandwiched between those gentle bamboo sheets. I want to say that I’m in love, but like every product, there are some hangups.

I was really shocked by the shipping waste and I really hope that is not how Layla intends to distribute their products, but I didn’t want that to cloud my judgement of the sheets themselves. I love these sheets, but I find myself wondering if I love Layla’s sheets, or I love bamboo sheets. There are a few more bamboo sheet sets in the pipeline, so I want to make it very clear that this is my first set of sheets made of this fabric and I have no referent.

My Layla Bamboo Recommendation

Since there isn’t much information on Layla’s website, I don’t know how their fabric composition or production differs from any other kind of bamboo sheet, so I don’t feel like I can adequately make a judgement on the company itself. Bamboo is a very promising agricultural alternative to cotton, but like hemp, the miracle textile crop of your dreams isn’t always sustainable. Ultimately whether you buy these sheets or not comes down to how important your carbon footprint is to you. Off the bat, while bamboo and hemp grow quickly and function more efficiently as textile crops, farms are often established on land that was deforested specifically for the cultivation of these crops, which is ironic and dangerous.
