Kmart 500 TC Australian Grown Cotton
Verified38 reviews
I've bought two different colours in 500 tc queen bedsheets. Both fitted sheets are too small and have ripped. I don't wash them in hot water. If this is a typical issue kmart should allow for extra dimension to accommodate shrinkage. I no longer buy kmart cotton sheets. Show details
Do not buy!! I, like everyone else is very disappointed. I bought the king bed sheet set for $69 and a doona cover set. The material is so scratchy, we washed both per the instructions and it was so scratchy we had rashes last night after an hour and ended up just sleeping in our spare room. We washed these sheets again today STILL SCRATCHY! They… Read more
are awful and we didn’t even keep our receipt because we have bought Kmart sheets with no issues in the past. I actually think there is something they are treating them with that can’t be washed out causing skin irritation. We’ve never had reactions to cotton before.

Bought Anko 500 tc Queen sized sheet set and they are lovely feel, thick texture, cotton and the bottom sheet actually tucks really well under the mattress. I'm not a green colour person But the Olive green is beautiful and good value $50.00 a set. Well done kmart. Show details · 1

Anko Linen Cotton Sheets – I recently ordered the Anko Linen Quilt cover and pillows in Super King size. The size is great and generous, button holes are a bit off but the material feels great and it was only $65!!! For linen sheets. I love mine they feel soft cool and luxurious can’t do better for the price. Show details
Everything your sheets should be – I've owned these sheets for the past few years and they have proven to be very durable, keep their colour well and feel lovely every time you slid into bed. They have worn no thin spots and fit the bed well, could use a little extra depth though for very thick mattresses. Show details · 1
Exceptionally well made – After buying expensive sheets for years, I bought these sheets just as a backup. I was pleasantly surprised at their high quality including straight seams and hems on the sheets and pillowcases which even my expensive sheet sets are lacking. They wash beautifully. Other reviewers have said they’ve shrunk after the first wash - mine haven’t, but then, I don’t put them in the dryer. They fit my deep sided mattress perfectly. Show details · 1

Not happy Jan! – I spent $69 on these King sized tan coloured sheets yesterday. The bottom sheet does not fit. It's too small. So we didn't sleep in them and I packed them up and went back to KMart with receipt, but was told they do not give refunds for bedding, even though I explained the problems. Very disappointing!

Itchy skin – Since sleeping in these sheets I have become so itchy with little rashes and every night and morning I would find myself as itchy as anything. I didn't put two and two together until I researched if there was a problem with the sheets and yes it seems that they are the problem. I wouldn't not recommend this product and I would like a refund.

Waste of money – Sheets shrunk and dont fit matress. Also ichy to sleep in even after multiple washes. Do not buy these are very poor quality. Looking at the other reviews they have not listened or done anything about it. Where is the product testing even..? What a waste of money

Awful skin reaction – Bought 2 sets of these sheets for caravan. Really bad skin reaction on face, arms & neck every time we used them. Washed 5 or 6 times which lessened reaction but still bad. Never had a reaction to cotton bed linen before. Would this be from something they're treated with?

Buy if you want a skin rash – I used to buy these all the time, the quality was good years ago. Bought a set and put them on the bed. My skin broke out in a rash from how harsh the sheets are, and I was only laying in it for 30 mins. Quickly stripped the bed and put other sheets on. Don't buy. Show details

KMART 500tcsheet shrinkage – I loved these sheets when I first purchased them. Felt great quality! Unfortunately since I washed them, they are unusable due to the amount of shrinkage. Its so annoying and i cant even try and manipulate them to the corner. Very disappointed. Can i get a refund?

Total waste of money – These would have to be the most uncomfortable sheets I own. Bought for our airbnb, washed and slept on them last night. Scratchy and stiff. Just awful!!!!! also like everyone else, they shrink! I want to return but I suspect this will not be possible. Ripped off. Show details

King size don't bother – Bought king sized sheet set washed first before trying on my bed. Wish I had of tried before washing to check. The fitted sheet doesn't fit at all, not even close! Very disappointed. Have my receipt but doubt they will return now. Show details

Value for money – After reading reviews I've kept packaging and receipt for the 500 tc australian grown cotton queen sheets. I tried them on the bed both before and after washing and found they shrunk a bit but luckily still fit as there was plenty of room to start. So if yours are a tight fit before washing they may not fit after initial wash. I've only washed… Read more
them once and hoping there'll be no more shrinkage. Apart from that they are a lovely cotton sheet for a reasonable price.

NOT HAPPY JAN – Wish I had seen these reviews before I bought the Kmart 500tc queen sheet set a week ago. As per Anka directions washed the sheets before use …. huge shrinkage. The fitted sheet doesn’t go anywhere near fitting my Queen bed. I have always bought Kmart sheets and have never had this problem. I love the feel of the sheets and the fact that they are… Read more
cotton but that is as far as it goes. Now sleeping on bed without sheets as other sheets were donated to the local Vet. So disappointed Kmart :( :(
Fitted sheets do not fit – Purchased two queen bed fitted sheets for my son. Quality seems quite good, however they don't fit. It takes two of us to using brute strength to fit corners. After a couple fo washes the seem smaller still. Mattress is a queen so the queen sheet should fit. No use being so cheap if they cannot be used. I see we are not alone with this issue… Read more
reading these reviews so why have you not fixed the problem??? We are tossing them aside and will never buy Kmart sheets again.

My husband and I love these sheets! We usually buy Sheridan – I read a review about these sheets on the KMart website where someone stated they were used to buying Sheridan sheets and these were on par. So off I went as we were getting close to needing new sheets and I needed to met my budget. We have loved them and are sad when they need to get washed. I have had them since Summer 2021/22 and have not had… Read more · 1
any issues with shrinkage or piling. I wash them as I do all my sheets and they are great. Super soft, cool feeling and snuggling without feeling trapped. I will buy more.
Worst sheets ever – Bought the Kmart 500TC 100% cotton sheets. Washed them and have put them on bed. Lying in bed now and they feel awful. Very scratchy and itchy on my skin. So disappointed. Won’t be buying sheets from Kmart again. Waste of money. So uncomfortable I can’t wait to take them off but my other set (not Kmart ones) are still drying on the line Show details

One wash doesn't fit no more – Lovely feel but after one wash they no longer fitted mattress very frustrating never had this problem before I would be very caution of buying these.sheets again was very disappointed Show details
Pilling problems – Initially okay, but the fitted sheet pilled after one wash - surprised as it's 500 TC. Fitted sheet was also a bit mean size wise and didn't have much to tuck under the mattress. Show details
love, love – great sheets, love the real cotton feel, not light and flimsy! when is next sale to purchase the silver sheets, not that i need another pair, but I love them! Show details
Dreadful pilling after first use – This Anko double bed fitted sheet is no longer useable due to pilling. It was used only once , and looking at it( before its first wash) it is covered in small balls. Show details
Fitted sheet too small – I recently bought a KS white set. The fitted sheet is extremely small and I find it so hard to put on the mattress. It’s a shame Because the quality seems great. They are not expensive for pure cotton sheets Show details
A bit "meh" – Bought these as i am a HUGE bedding/manchester lover and they were on special for $29 for a queen set. While they feel ok the fit is shocking. I have a Ikea mattress so no pillowtop or fancy high mattress. The bottom fitted sheet is a struggle to get on my basic mattress! The top sheet is fine though. I would buy king size if i was to get them… Read more
again. Quality seems average. If you need sheets consider the 500 thread count cotton ones they have instead. Better fit nicer feel.
Awesome sheets - use them for all my properties – I love these 500 TC Kmart sheets. They have good weight and feel high quality. Have been using them in 3 short-let holiday apartments for all bedding, so they get washed at least once per week (rotating several sets) and after 2 years they are still excellent. Show details
