Amazon Basics 400 Thread Count Cotton Pillow Case, Standard, 30″ L x 20″ W, White – Set of 2, Pillows Not Included

Better than I imagined!
I have an extra set of pillows on out bed for when one of us needs a little extra propping up. Since we don’t actually sleep on them, I didn’t really care how soft, or nice, they were. I just wanted something cheap and white.These were an extremely pleasant surprise! They were inexpensive, and white, but they were also beautiful. The fabric was crisp and smooth, and it felt great. They fit perfectly, and didn’t have that annoying envelope closure. They seem durable, as they are well made. The stitching is tight and smooth.I’m so happy to have found these! I look forward to using them for a while.

Great Fit, Great Feel
Nice product. Washes well, fits my pillows.

Exactly what ordered
Bought this at a great price on prime day. They’re cotton and feel so soft. Got 2 of them in a pack. Standard size and fits our pillows well. They’re sturdy looking, and well made. Cotton feels great. The only thing that might be a negative for others is the color isn’t exactly white. It’s more of a very light vanilla. It’s not a huge deal to me and I won’t be taking away stars for it but keep that in mind if you must have pure white pillow cases.

Seam came apart on very first wash
I always wash everything before I use. I washed the pillow cases as per product directions. One pillow case, part of the side seam came apart. The fabric does not feel soft either. Not impressed.

Nice. Very comfortable. I like the King Size even for our Queen Sized pillows.

I bought these to match the fitted sheets – one I’ve had in rotation for 4 years that I’ve been really pleased with, one extra I’ve just bought – but it’s a bit of a mixed review for the pillowcases.Looking at some of the other reviews talking about the fabric being scratchy and hard makes me think I’ve received a totally different product! But just like the fitted sheets, the pillowcases are smooth due to the 400 thread count, with a slight sheen due to the sateen weave, and are exactly what I expected and hoped for in that area. The dark grey colour is versatile and also very pleasant to my eye, and I appreciated the sewn border detail along one side, which is an unexpected feature in a good value “basics” range.BUT – and it’s the factor that means I’m returning these instead of using them happily for years like the sheets – they don’t have an envelope! I think without exception until now, every pillowcase I’ve used in my 40 years has included an envelope flap to cover the end of the pillow, and I hadn’t realised this was a feature I needed to specifically look for! As I was testing the size on my current pillows (fine, incidentally, for standard sized pillows), I actually had to turn the case inside out because I couldn’t work out where the envelope flap was, and was confused about it just not existing!The product description doesn’t mention the envelope flap at all, and there aren’t any photos that shows the side view with the pillow inner exposed – just some careful shots chosen that make it look like any normal (enclosed) pillow, which I believe is misleading.Obviously there are bigger problems in the world than pillowcases without envelope flaps, but to me it seems like a very strange choice to sell open-ended ones, but then go to the trouble of adding a sewn border detail to that open end! If I were to keep these, I would have to position them so the open end was facing away from the door to the room (it would look scruffy and untidy to have a gaping open end on display, with a contrasting colour pillow inside), so that extra detail would also be less visible. More than just for aesthetics, I want an envelope flap for my pillowcases to protect the pillow itself from dust/fluff from my cats/etc, so I guess it’s back to the drawing board to find a good quality cotton pillowcase to match my sheets.
