While sateen sheets are similar to satin sheets, they aren’t to be confused with one another. The satin weave structure (one under, three over) creates sateen sheets, but yarn is used rather than filament fibers. Despite the differences in material, sateen sheets are just as elegant and silky smooth as satin. They are less durable than percale sheets but also better for cold sleepers and cooler weather. 

Factors for Bed Sheets: Consider the material's feel and breathability, your skin's sensitivity, and the climate. Also, think about ease of care – for instance, if you dislike ironing, look for wrinkle-resistant options.
