The material is soft but the comforter is skimpy.  It is just not enough width for a king sized bed.  The length is fine.  I ordered white.  The sheets are white but the comforter looks dingy beside the sheets.  Also, the bed skirt is very skimpy.  The corners of the skirt are not slit and that makes the appearance always look like it needs adjusting on my pencil-post bed.  The weight is light and nice for summer.
