Deep Fitted Sheets

Why would you need a deep fitted sheet?

If your mattress has built-in padding, sometimes known as a pillow top which offers great comfort, this also means that a normal fitted sheet won’t fit right. This is also a known problem if you opt to use an additional mattress topper on top of your mattress. So this is where we’d recommend choosing a deep 40cm fitted sheet, as the addition of 10cm allows the fabric to stretch over the mattress comfortably.
