Although thread count isn't the only thing that matters when buying luxury bedding, after all fancy fabrics like silk will never be replaced, it can be an easy rule of thumb to rely on. Generally, the higher the thread count, the more pleasant the fabric will be. Thread count is simply the number of threads in a square inch of fabric. More threads mean the fabric will be less course, but only up to a point. A thread count of 300 is generally considered pretty good, but some manufacturers will attempt to use double layers in order to claim thread counts of 600 or more.
