Why Does This Keep Happening?
You know the feeling: you wake up, stretch, and realize your fitted sheet has made a break for it—again. It’s not just you. Sheets popping off the corners is one of those small annoyances that can make your whole bed feel off. There’s a weird comfort in knowing you’re not alone, but that doesn’t make it any less frustrating.

The Real Reasons Sheets Won’t Stay Put
Let’s get real. Sometimes it’s the mattress—maybe it’s extra-deep, or you’ve got a topper that adds height. Sometimes it’s the sheet itself: too loose, too tight, or just not the right fit. And sometimes, it’s just the way we toss and turn at night. Even humidity or the type of fabric can play a role. It’s a little like Goldilocks—everything needs to be just right.
