Lakora 4-Piece Organic Washed Cotton Bed Sheet Set Double

After 2 weeks on the bed the fibres in the sheets have little balls formed. Very uncomfortable and scratchy on the skin. Have contacted supply and no reply. Show details

Don't buy from Lakora Home! – Not 100% Organic Cotton at all, so mad right now, waited forever to receive two sets of bed sheets and two mattress protectors for my kids, now have to start the whole refund process and send them back, as they are lying about the material. This should be illegal and I'll be making a complaint to the appropriate organisations to get them closed down for dishonesty! Show details

Not cotton at all, blatantly lying – Edit: After much public reviews, I finally received a refund. They were trying to convince me to remove my reviews first, I refused & they finally sent me one anyway. But they kept lying. Refer to pics & correspondence. I also did a burn test. Shrivels like polyester. I should have trusted the previous Google reviews, these sheets are 100%… Read more

polyester, they're trying to pass off microfibre sheets as organic cotton. The tags may say 100% cotton but but they have their own factories so this is fake. After initially gas lighting me that it's cotton, ignoring me when I emailed them the burn test, blocking/removing my Google review, blocking my personal fb account from their fb page, so I created a public page to write my review, they finally started to offer a refund & "real" cotton sheets, but the damage is done. But the fact the fabric tags are fake & they're blaming that on staff & sharing a factory with other companies, I don't buy this excuse. Where was this excuse last week when I sent them the burn test? So I prefer to leave my review to warn customers that their deception is intentional & only when shamed publicly over & over again & not being able to silence you, they then want to buy your silence. As I said, even confronting them with the truth of the burn test was not enough for them to offer me a refund last week. It's lies upon lies with them. If people keep removing their reviews about this company, how can we prevent others from getting lied to? 3 excuses were used: 1. I should bought the Egyptian cotton ones. 2. It was a warehouse staff issue. 3. I bought the micrifibre sheets. (Refer to pics of tag & packaging that claims it's cotton). ‍‍

Cotton sheets made from microfibre – I ordered some "organic washed cotton" sheets from Lakora Australia. They arrived with "cotton" on the care label and a packaging label stating "2000 TC" which they most definitely weren't, and this wasn't part of the marketing anyway so it seemed odd. The sheets were extremely thin and soft, and did not feel like cotton. Washed them before… Read more

using, and noted that they didn't wrinkle, which is very odd for cotton.

While they were on the bed, I noticed static electricity generated by them in the dark. Cotton doesn't do this.

So I snipped a bit off the inside hem of a pillowcase, and subjected it to the "burn" test. It melted into a tiny, hard, shiny ball.

Microfibre, nylon or polyester or similar.

Wrote to the company, who stated they were cotton with a "special treatment applied to make them soft". Advised them of the burn test result. Silence.

Their "returns policy" looks good on the website, but when you go to it, it's long, contradicts itself, and the customer has to pay for the shipping.

This doesn't apply here, as the product was misleadingly sold as cotton when it's actually man-made fibre.

But it's a classic case of a company looking trustworthy (lots of positive reviews, and the odd angry one) when they really are not.
