The color looked aweful in our space, so I had to return them. So I can't speak to durability, but when I took them out to place on the couch to see how they looked, it left behind fuzz from the pillow cover. Maybe a good lint roll or wash would take care of that; not sure how they hold up in the wash. 

Otherwise the color and look was as pictured and I really liked them, other than finding out that was NOT the right color for our room. LOL
