Love the feel of the bedding - it's cool and very luxurious. As someone who suffers from night sweats, I bought it to help with that. The bedding does dry quicker than traditional cotton sheets but doesn't aid the prevention of sweating (it's clearly not a heat thing with me!). At low levels of sweating, it is less likely to wake you up. The one negative is that the sheet scrunches up very quickly after a night or two of sleeping (again, it may be worse for me as I clearly don't stay still in my sleep), and the duvet does have a tendency to slide around in the cover more than what it would in a cotton equivalent. I'm pleased I bought it but I'm not sure it's worth the significant jump in price.
