Fitted sheets are an unique American invention designed for ease in

commercial laundries there still prefer flat sheets.
Hm... Most DOMESTIC sheets these days in the UK are fitted. We don't bother with top sheets as we tend to use duvets in duvet covers that get washed along with the sheets. Bed making takes seconds.
Hotels and hospitals still tend to use flat 100% cotton sheets that get boiled. These days many hotels use duvets, and thet are also often used in non-surgical hospitall wards.
No one IRONS fitted sheets, surely? They stretch flat on the mattress! Even me mum doesn't iron fitted sheets! :D
