It's definitely on the thin side but that doesn't affect the quality at all, and if your bed linens are light in color nothing shows thru. After machine washing on warm and tumble drying on hot it's super soft and almost puffy. It didn't shrink at all and although it's wrinkly coming out of the dryer I love how it looks tossing it on the bed just the way it is. The reverse pattern is way too busy and monotone for me but it's nice as an option. I wish it came with pillow cases, then it would be a complete set.
