This comforter set is quite nice in terms of softness and comfort, and the textured pattern is quite beautiful. The color, however, is not as dark as I would have preferred and does not match the darker, almost steel blue, color that is depicted on the website. It's actually a much brighter blue, closer to a royal blue. This could very well be the fault of my monitor, but it's something of which to be aware. It's also little on the thinner side and does not have the fullness that I was expecting. I am going to keep it since it fits my king-size bed well and because it is comfortable, but I will be adding a quilt and different shams in order to add fullness and to soften the bright color.
