What is the truth concerning the thread count in egyptian cotton?


Question:i want to buy the best egyptian cotton sheets but am confused. i have been told that genuine thread count can not go above 600 but have seen a count of 1000 in kingofcotton.co.uk. Who is telling the truth?

Answers:
The more thread the better, now I've discovered these sheets, I don't want any other... they are wonderful and well worth spending extra on !! ENJOY !!


The higher the number, the better the quality. Although, I've never seen Egyptian cotton sheets over 500 thread count.
The higher the number, the better the quality. After sleeping on 400 thread count sateen sheets, I will not buy anything less.
who counts every thread?
have just bought 500 count sheets . what a con. they are no better than argos polycotton and need ironing to look anything
I thought that the high quality of Egyptian Cotton derived from the greater length of the individual fibres. Maybe I'm wrong though. What's the definition of thread count?
