The bedding set is exactly as it appears in the pictures online. It is made of good material for the price point and is well constructed. The reason for the mediocre rating is more for Wayfair's poor execution of the delivery. Firstly, it took far longer to arrive than it should have; I received 2 shipping notices, the first at 2 weeks after I placed the order, the tracking never activated, then about 3 weeks later a second shipping notice was sent which turned out to be the real one. The second disappointing part was that I ordered a queen size, but received a king-sized set. All of this occurred heading into the busy holiday season, with family visiting, I didn't have the time or spare funds to purchase a replacement before our family arrived. So we are now stuck with a ridiculously oversized bedding set.
