The striped cover is thinner than expected but a nice fabric. Like that the set came with a coordinating blanket. The pillows are ok, too small and a little cheap looking so I won't use them on the bed. Also, too small for a CA King. I can get away with it being too small because you don't see one side of my bed when walking in the room. It would just fit for a regular King size since it is not generous or full.
