The colors in this bedding set are fantastic and the sheets and pillow shams washed well.  I'm not too keen on the stiffness of the fabric and I was hoping it would be a bit softer.  However, I bought this set for my teenage son, and he's extremely hard on his bedding since our dog sleeps with him.  Softer bedding has easily ripped, so my hope is that this material will survive for more than 6 months.  Overall though, I would purchase this set for my other son once he wrecks his current bedding, which will probably happen shortly as well.
