Had the duvet cover for only a week but so far I'm happy with it. It did not look what I think it would but I still like it. I thought the pattern would b embossed vs printed, but it's still pretty. I bought both gray and blue set for the same king bed and the hues complement each other nicely. The cover should have ties on the inside. For the price, I think this cover & sham are a great value. I would recommend it.
