I am a very indecisive person, and I had been looking for a duvet cover for a couple of weeks. I came across this cover on Amazon and was drawn to the unique design. I was worried that I wasn't going to like it after I saw it in person. I was concerned because it is only 300 thread count, but it feels so much softer than that! It washes up nicely, and I like the zipper closure. I don't have to worry about the corners of my comforter sticking out.I am glad I went out of my comfort zone and bought this duvet cover. I thought the pattern might be too "loud" for me, but it perfect for my grey bedroom. It adds just the right amount of color without being too much. The other side also has a nice design.Just a note: if you order the king set, the pillow cases are not for king size pillows. I have some overstuffed standard pillows, and the pillowcases fit them perfectly. I am actually glad that the king size duvet cover comes with standard size pillow cases.It is very nice to crawl under the covers every night. I only wish I didn't have to get out from under the covers when my alarm goes off in the morning!
