I received this set two days ago.  Shipment was within one week.  Today I washed and dried the pieces( except for the throw pillow).   I am pleased with how it looks on the bed.  It does have some wrinkles which doesn't really bother me because of the gathers ( which is one of the reasons I bought this set in the first place).  The reason for the 4 stars is the color.  It is definitely NOT BEIGE! It is a cream color, almost like the color of French vanilla ice cream .  But, being my bedroom has all neutral colors, it works!
