I must admit I got an incredible deal on this comforter. I honestly wasn't expecting much because the deal was so good. We were pleasantly surprised when it arrived and I washed/dried it. The photos do not do this justice. It's very pretty and the dark grey at the bottom has a hint of blue. It's light so my husband loves it. It's warm so I love it. It doesn't get too hot or too heavy so it's perfect for summer nights with the ac on. This was definitely a good purchase. It is bigger than all of my kind size comforters.
