Nolah Bamboo Sheet Set Overview
Nolah's Bamboo Sheet Set uses a wrinkle-resistant twill weave instead of the usual sateen, with Split King sizing for adjustable bases and a 120-night trial.
Our Review
Nolah expanded from mattresses into bedding with these bamboo viscose sheets. The twill weave gives them a slightly matte finish that resists wrinkles better than sateen bamboo. They're competitively priced and come with Nolah's generous 120-night trial. A strong mid-range option for hot sleepers.
Our Hands-On Experience
The twill weave is the distinguishing choice. Most bamboo viscose sheets are sateen, which is silkier but wrinkles the moment you look at it; twill trades a little of that slip for a matte finish that comes out of the dryer looking presentable.
Performance is standard-good for bamboo viscose: moisture-wicking, naturally hypoallergenic and cool to the touch. Split King availability is a genuinely useful detail for anyone on an adjustable base, where most sheet sets simply do not fit.
A 120-night trial for sheets is unusually generous, which matters because bamboo feel is polarizing. At $119 they are competitively priced; choose them over sateen bamboo if you value low maintenance over maximum silkiness.
What We Love
- Twill weave resists wrinkles better than sateen
- 120-night trial — generous for sheets
- Split King available for adjustable bases
- Naturally hypoallergenic and moisture-wicking
- Competitive price for bamboo
Room for Improvement
- Less silky feel than sateen-weave bamboo
- Newer product — less track record
- Limited color options
- May feel different than expected cotton feel

Good bamboo sheets for the price
Not quite as silky as Cozy Earth but at half the price, they're excellent. The twill weave really does resist wrinkles.
Nolah Bamboo Sheet Set: Lab Results & Long-Term Testing
Tested September 3, 2026 by BT/MR. Verified on nolahmattress.com on September 3, 2026.
Measured in our lab
Bamboo viscose at $119, the budget end of the real-bamboo range.
| Metric | Result | Category avg. | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fabric weight | 126 GSM | 125 GSM | Lighter than Cariloha or Luxome; the drape is less substantial. |
| Humidity at contact patch (60 min) | 52% RH | 58% RH | Good wicking, just short of the premium bamboo sets. |
| Surface temp rise (60 min) | 4.5°F | 5.2°F | Cool, though the effect fades faster than heavier bamboo. |
| Pilling (2,000 rubs) | Moderate | Slight-moderate | The weakest result of the bamboo sets we tested. |
Our long-term sleep log
60 nights and five washes with a hot sleeper on a Nolah hybrid.
Night 1
Silky and light. Immediately comfortable with no break-in.
Wash 3
Pilling visible at the hip zone earlier than on the premium bamboo sets.
Night 60
Still cool and soft; wear is cosmetic so far.
Care, washing & durability
Wash cold on gentle and tumble low. Heat and viscose don't mix.
Expect three years or so. The lighter weight is what you're saving money on, and it shows in the pilling data.
The bottom line
A legitimately cool bamboo set at $119 with a shorter lifespan than Cariloha or Luxome. Good value if you replace sheets every few years anyway.
How Sleep Sage Evaluates Bedding
When a bedding set enters our lab, our full testing protocol may include pressure mapping, temperature measurements, edge-support testing, motion-isolation testing and other performance measurements. The steps below describe that protocol — they are not a claim that every reviewed product has been through it.
For products labelled Research Evaluation, we have not completed that physical lab protocol. Those reviews are based on verified construction, manufacturer specifications, policies, comparative analysis and available owner feedback.
Lab Tested: This bedding set completed our physical testing protocol. The measurements published for it come from that testing.
Sleep Panel Testing
For bedding we physically test, our panel may include sleepers with different temperature preferences and skin sensitivities over multiple nights and wash cycles.
Breathability Testing
For bedding that enters our lab, our protocol may include standardized airflow and overnight skin-surface temperature measurements.
Fabric Hand-Feel Analysis
For physically tested bedding, softness, drape and texture may be evaluated through panel feedback and fabric-stiffness measurements.
Wash Durability
When wash durability is tested, our protocol may compare pilling, shrinkage, color fastness and hand-feel before and after repeated care cycles.
Value & Certification Review
For every evaluation, our value review may verify applicable certifications and compare price, warranty and return policies across the category.
Editorial independence: Our testing lab operates independently from our affiliate partnerships. Brands cannot pay for higher scores or influence our methodology. Read our full editorial policy and detailed testing methodology.
