8 Best Deep-Pocket Sheets of 2023, Tested and Reviewed
By Corinne Sullivan
Introducing cotton, linen, bamboo, and eucalyptus options.
he only thing worse than sleeping through your alarm? Waking up in the middle of the night to realize your fitted sheet has, once again, popped off your damn mattress.
If your mattress is at least 14 inches tall (or if you’ve got your bed padded up with a mattress topper), there’s a good chance you need some deep-pocket sheets ’cause standard sheets (which are usually made to accommodate mattresses that are 10 to 12 inches thick) just aren’t going to cut it. But fret not—there are plenty of deep-pocket sheet sets out there that’ll cover your thick-AF mattress.
Whether you’re into crisp percale sheets or light and airy bamboo sheets, I’ve rounded up all the best deep-pocket sheets on the market rn in a variety of fabrics, weaves, and price points.
And while any sheet with at least a 16-inch pocket is usually considered a deep-pocket sheet, these selects all have a pocket depth of at least 18 inches, so they’ll still fit your extra-tall mattress even if they shrink a bit in the wash. (Smart, right??) Here’s a sneak peek at the winners.
Our top picks for the best deep-pocket sheets of 2023:

THE REVIEW: “I wish I had owned these sheets for years. I LOVE them,” raves one reviewer. “I have a hard time narrowing down my favorite part: the softness, ease of wash, or the incredibly deep pockets. These are the first set of sheets I have owned that stay on all though the night. No more ending up sleeping partly on mattress pad by morning because sheet has pulled off mattress. I am getting sets for all the beds in my house!!”
What size are deep-pocket sheets?
Deep-pocket sheets are designed to fit mattresses that are thicker than a standard mattress—but tbh, not everyone can agree on what qualifies as a deep-pocket sheet. Generally speaking, if your mattress is over 14 inches thick (or if you have a pillow top or mattress topper), then you’ll most likely need a sheet with a deep pocket. And since you wanna choose sheets with a pocket depth that’s at least two inches taller than your total mattress height, deep-pocket sheets tend to range anywhere from 16 to 22 inches deep.
