The sheets are attractive and I had no problem with the fit on a queen mattress. The thread count is low and the fabric is a bit rough. The finishing on the fitted sheet is cheaply done and could be improved. My main issue is with the pillowcases. They are short and are made for a standard pillow, only.

Attractive

Hello, Are these the same quality as the Ajo design? Another review mentioned that the Ajo are 300 thread count and made in Mexico, but others are only 200 thread count and made in Pakistan. I like the feel of my Ajo sheets but prefer the Orkanen and Kesahelle fabrics.

Hello, these new designs are currently made in Pakistan with a 200 thread count. They are still Percale and have a soft feel, like the Mexican made sheets.
