This comforter set is a great value.  The fabric is soft and the background is fairly white vs. cream. I wouldn't say this comes across as high-end, luxurious bedding because the material is a little chintzy, but it's a really nice looking set and you can't beat the price for everything you get. All the pieces come out of the bag pretty wrinkled so they'll need to be smoothed out and the pillows need time to fluff up a bit.
