Is it that you only have one set that gets washed and used over and over? I just buy a few sets of cheap sheets and rotate them

Edit: Or do you have a top loader washing machine which is harder on clothes/bedding? Frequent bleaching that weakens the material? Or does the soap not all rinse out so the fibres break?

I used to have multiple sets and rotate but have worn through them without replacing.
