The tread count per unit of length ( pc/10cm) and material weight  per unit of area (g/m2 ) must be seen together. High thread count indicates the fineness of the used yarn. Too high thread count means that used threads are too thin to perform long lasting wear for your bed item. For good wear is better to choose bed linen items with thread count between 175 and 250 per 10 cm. The material weight g/m2 indicates the quantity of the used yarn to produce one square meter of the material. For you as higher is the material weight as better. If you will buy low count and lightweight bedding  item,  it will last short time and will wear out in the places you lie more intensively.
