I would have given this a 5/5 rating, but I held back for 2 reasons. The first, my duvet cover came with a few small stains on it. I didn't select to purchase open box so I'm hard pressed to think it was a return? The second, the shams are thin so if your pillows have any print on them (as in the brand name printed on them, etc.) you will see it through the sham. I think the set is absolutely beautiful though. I think the quilt in this collection may be the better choice.
