Using your new bamboo sheet set is easy. Just put them on your king - sized bed as you would with any other sheets. When it comes to washing, use a gentle cycle with cold or lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners as they can damage the bamboo fibers. Hang them to dry or use a low - heat setting in the dryer. Store the sheets in a cool, dry place when not in use. With proper care, these sheets will keep you comfortable for a long time.
