I bought Egyptian cotton duvet set for a superking bed on eBay for under 70 euros a couple years ago. Excellent value, can't remember the seller but they were making to order somewhere in Yorkshire.

If you can wait for the January sales you can pick up great value - try House of Fraser in Dundrum and Arnotts. I also have some IKEA ones that are nice - someone complimented our 'lovely Orla Kiely bedspread', which was in fact from the Swedish outlet.

I've seen some lovely sets in Homebase-usually reduced in price too.
Have bought some and quality is good too.

How does the Egyptian cotton sheets feel? More comfy than regular cotton? We're super king too. I like my comfort

Wait until Brown Thomas Christmas sale in in its last week. You will get great quality reduced to 70% off.

It feels lovely and softens with washes. I've had mine 4 years and still like new. Look for thread count. The higher the better.

I like bedeck , they are stocked in the designer guild in Kildare village but if you sign up to their newsletter they run regular sales with 70% and sometimes additional % off. Tk max is good but can be tricky to get a full matching set sometimes

Justlinen.co.uk is great for dorma, bedeck, christy etc at big reductions. Used them a lot when I moved house a couple of years ago. I second egyptian cotton for sheets, I had a friend ask me where I got the sheets after she stayed over this year, its cotton that feels like silk. I got my 400 thread in Clerys in Naas years ago and they still feel silky soft.

I stop at bedeck in Banbridge on my way down from Belfast every so often for sets. And sometimes in Kildare village.
Usually a good reduction in price.

For sheets, have a look at the most expensive sheets in Arnotts, they are probably 1000 thread count. Then do a search on Amazon (e.g. "egyptian cotton sheets 1000") and compare.

Do the same with duvet covers & pillow cases. You can of course increase the thread count. 1400-1800 is seriously good.

Read the reviews before you buy.

I think mine are 1400 tc, seriously slinky!

Yeah, I gotta jump on the Egyptian Cotton bandwagon. My motto is comfy runners, comfy carpet, comfy couch, comfy bed. It's just an excuse for my fat arse, but it's still one I live by. It's worth going online or into a shop you trust to pay premium prices for Egyptian Cotton because when kept properly, they will hold you in good stead and you'll reluctantly leave your fugue household state so relaxed you're clinically dead for enough time afterwards to allow you to wake up to the harsh realities of the world.

Dunnes - I think they are wonderful quality, the higher priced ones.
