Life! It's expensive!
Furnishing your house and your adult life can really start to add up. So it's important to know which things are actually worth spending big bucks on and when the cheap version will get the job done. We teamed up with Michael Zhao and the other product experts at The Sweethome to see when spending a pretty penny may be worth it in the long run and which models they recommend.

Sheets
The average human will spend 26 years of their life sleeping, so the linens on your bed are definitely worth investing in. Truly great bed sheets are made with high quality cotton, which costs more than shorter staple material. The L.L.Bean’s 280-Thread-Count Pima Cotton Percale Sheets are tops, with superior sweat wicking, heat retention, and durability.
Get them here for $35-65 a set.
Aluminum Foil
It’s a bit more expensive than generics, but Reynolds Wrap’s thickness and malleability is far superior to cheaper brands. Out of 18 top-rated aluminum foils brands The Sweethome tested, Reynolds Wrap Heavy Duty performed the best in the grill pack test and was the least likely to puncture.
Get it here for $8.
