I actually really do like this set, but it is different what what I expected. The colors are much bolder, what appears grey in the photos is really black. It is called a duvet cover, so I expected it to be detachable..it is not, BUT, is sewn to the batting with in in a nice pattern, so it is fluffy and makes me think it may hold to washing on a gentle cycle.  Im only giving 4 stars for the color difference I was wxpecting. Even the pillow cases are slightly padded, which adds to the look of the entirety
