The cotton itself is very nice. I got the white in a king size and it is a very crisp, true white. However, the stitching at the bottom of the duvet cover seam split along the line of the button closure when I put the duvet in. This may be because the opening is too narrow, regardless I was very disappointed that it ripped upon first use. For the price I’m giving it 2 stars for poor design and questionable craftsmanship. Obviously, I can’t return it because I’ve washed it but very annoyed to have to restitch a new duvet cover.
