I was skeptical about paying so much for a comforter, but it is worth it. It looks just as good on my bed as it does in the picture. I am usually very frugal and this has moved me to the other side. I also love that it is machine washable. Before I had a polyester type comforter that had to be dry cleaned. It looked really worn after I finally had it cleaned. Excited to see how this works out.
