    The only problem I could see with the sheet is the thread count. The lower the threads per square inch the more likely they are to pill once washed. Not sure if others are bothered by this but, it's something that really bothers me when sleeping. I just want to sit there and pick them off.

    400 isn't a low thread count. It is usually the poly that collects the lint of the cotton causing pills.
