I have no idea how anyone has given this quilt set a good rating! We ordered two (and two of several other items as we are going to be fostering two boys and needed beds, mattresses, sheets, blankets, bedside tables, etc). When I first opened BOTH sets, I was surprised with a LOT of large cottony fuzz balls falling all over my floor. However, I figured it would be better once I washed them. I was very wrong. It got SO much worse. The quilts and shams are completely covered (literally everywhere) with navy blue fuzz balls that get everywhere in our home. The pom-poms, which we planned to cut off anyway, get completely knotted every time we wash these blankets. Zero stars.
