The Bare Home Microfiber set is designed for durability and ease of care. These cases are made from 100% polyester microfiber that has undergone a double-brushing process. This mechanical finish increases the surface area of the fibers, creating a very soft feel without the heavy weight of traditional high-thread-count cotton. This light weight allows for high airflow, which helps with rapid moisture evaporation.
These cases are Oeko-Tex Standard 100 certified, which indicates they have been verified as safe for skin contact. One of the primary benefits of this synthetic construction is dimensional stability; these cases are highly resistant to shrinking or warping even after many wash cycles. However, polyester is oleophilic, meaning it can bond with skin oils over time. Using an enzymatic detergent periodically can help keep them thoroughly clean. To prevent the fibers from melting or pilling, it is best to keep dryer temperatures below 60°C.
Maintenance Tips
- Wash with enzymatic detergents to effectively remove skin oils.
- Use a low heat setting in the dryer to protect the synthetic fibers.
- Add a conductive dryer sheet to neutralize static in dry climates.
Summary: A high-value, durable set that is easy to maintain and remains soft over time, making it an excellent choice for a busy household.
If you prefer a specialized fabric designed specifically for high-heat sleepers, the Elegear Japanese Q-Max cases may be worth considering.
