18" Deep 400 Count Egyptian Cotton Fitted Sheets
18 Inch Deep 400 Thread Count Egyptian Cotton Fitted Sheets – Ultra Deep Fit for Thick Mattresses and Luxury Beds
If you have a deep mattress, a thick topper or a high-end bed setup, you will already know the problem. Standard fitted sheets simply do not fit properly. They pull off the corners, ride up during the night and leave your bed looking untidy. Our 18 Inch Deep 400 Thread Count Egyptian Cotton Fitted Sheets are designed to solve that problem completely.
With a true ultra deep 18 inch fit, these sheets are made to cover deeper mattresses properly, giving you a secure hold and a much cleaner, more luxurious finish. Made from Egyptian cotton sateen, they combine that perfect fit with a smooth, soft feel that makes a real difference every night.
If your current fitted sheet feels like it is always fighting against your mattress, this is the upgrade that fixes it.
Why 18 Inch Deep Fitted Sheets Are Essential for Modern Beds
Mattresses are deeper than ever. Add a mattress topper, protector or pillow-top design and the overall height quickly increases. Standard fitted sheets are simply not designed for this, which is why they struggle to stay in place.
An 18 inch deep fitted sheet gives you the extra depth needed to wrap fully around the mattress. That means no more corners pinging off, no more adjusting the sheet every morning, and no more uneven or messy-looking beds.
Once you use a properly deep fitted sheet, the difference is immediate. The bed looks tighter, feels better and stays that way.
Made from 400 Thread Count Egyptian Cotton Sateen
This range is made from Egyptian cotton sateen, giving you a smooth, soft and refined finish that feels noticeably better than standard cotton sheets. Egyptian cotton is known for its quality, while sateen adds that slightly silkier feel and elegant look.
At 400 thread count, you get one of the most popular and well-balanced bedding fabrics available. It offers softness, durability and breathability without becoming too heavy or difficult to care for.
The use of long staple cotton fibres helps create a finer, smoother yarn, giving the sheet that comfortable, high-quality feel that makes getting into bed something you actually look forward to.
Ultra Deep Fit That Actually Stays in Place
These fitted sheets are designed to fit mattresses up to 18 inches deep, making them ideal for deeper beds and more luxurious setups. The sheet wraps properly around the mattress and is elasticated at the corners to keep everything secure.
That means no slipping, no bunching and no constant readjusting. The sheet stays where it should, giving you a smooth, stable surface to sleep on and a bed that looks properly made.
It is one of the simplest upgrades you can make, but one of the most noticeable.
Hotel Quality Finish at Home
Hotels use properly fitted sheets for a reason. A tight, smooth base layer makes the whole bed look cleaner, sharper and more luxurious. When the fitted sheet sits correctly, everything above it looks better too.
This range gives you that same effect at home. The combination of a deeper fit and smoother cotton creates a bed that feels more refined, more structured and far more inviting.
If you want your bedroom to feel more like a high-end hotel space, this is exactly the sort of detail that makes it happen.
Softness and Comfort You Feel Every Night
The fitted sheet is the layer you lie on, so the quality matters. A smoother, better-quality sheet improves comfort straight away. This range gives you that soft, clean feel that makes a real difference when you get into bed.
It is not just about luxury for appearance. It is about creating a bed that feels better to sleep in and more comfortable night after night.
This is where 400 thread count Egyptian cotton really comes into its own.
Easy Care That Works in Real Life
These fitted sheets are machine washable and tumble dry safe, making them easy to look after. The easy-care finish is designed to make washing and ironing simple, so you get luxury bedding without extra effort.
This is especially important with fitted sheets, as they are used constantly and need to be washed regularly. You want something that feels premium but still fits into your routine.
This range gives you both.
7 Year Guarantee for Long-Term Confidence
These sheets come with a 7 year guarantee, giving you confidence in the quality and durability of the fabric. That means you are not just buying a better-fitting sheet, you are investing in bedding that is built to last.
It is a strong reassurance that this is a proper upgrade, not just a short-term fix.
Colour Choices to Suit Your Bedroom
You can choose from a range of colours including:
- White
- Ivory
- Oyster
- Mulberry
- Blush Pink
- Duckegg Blue

Why Ultra Deep Sheets Make the Biggest Difference
If your fitted sheet does not fit, nothing else on the bed quite looks right. The duvet cover can be perfect, the pillows can be styled beautifully, but if the base layer is pulling loose, the whole bed feels unfinished.
An ultra deep fitted sheet fixes that instantly. It gives you a stable base, a cleaner look and a more comfortable surface to sleep on.
It is one of the most important upgrades you can make to your bedding.

Why buy Egyptian cotton bedding over normal cotton? Its more expensive but is it worth the extra premium you have to fork out just to have the best sheets? Well in short we would say yes, on first inspection there might not be some very noticeable differences, but when you have used them for a short while you will never go back to standard cotton sheets. But what makes them so expensive I hear you ask? Well the very best cotton is grown on the lush banks of the Nile delta in Egypt, the cotton fields are very well established and they are still hand picked to ensure that the cotton buds are not damaged, they are then sorted by size and quality, the very best and larger buds are reserved for the higher thread count sheets as the longer staple fibres are required to make the stronger yarns needed for percale and sateen weaves.
When is comes to weaving, there are two types that are mainly used for plain cotton sheets, pillowcases and duvet covers. Percale is the more well known weave that is mainly now only used for fabrics with a thread count under 300 threads per square inch, this traditional fabric used both the same amount of yarns on the weft and on the warp, for example a 200 thread count fabric would have 100 yarns on the weft and 100 yarns on warp, to make a really high thread count like a 1000 count cotton fabric would be almost commercially impossible without the use of a sateen weave. A sateen weave will use the same looms as the percale weaves but instead of using the same amount of yarns on the warp and weft they use half the amount on the warp to keep the speed of the loom intact. So for example a 300 thread count sateen weave would have 200 yarns on the warp and 100 yarns on the weft.

A percale weave would have a matt finish whereas a sateen weave has that slight sheen to it, which looks stunning laid on the bed and what makes that 5 star hotel room looks so inviting, as it’s all about aesthetics and this is where a sateen weave wins out. So what we are trying to say is that it is not the weave that makes the fabric so expensive, it’s the quality of the cotton, they way it is harvested and the care and quality required to keep it from being brittle. It is more organically grown too, no fertilisers and harsh caustic chemicals are used, hand picked for extra attention to detail, this results in a fabric that really does last the length of time, will look and feel just as good in 10 years’ time, wash after wash. So if you have never tried Egyptian cotton before, treat yourself, it’s well worth it.
