After having only owned comforters, I decided to give the duvet/comforter option a try.  Because I was a novice, I researched and delayed and researched some more before making my purchase. Very important to me... corner ties. This duvet cover set clearly advertises, in more than one place in the description, that it has corner ties.  Mine does not.  Disappointing.

Pros: Value
Cons: No corner ties
