The comforter is very soft and the colors are true to the picture.  The sheets are okay - they are pretty but a little rough. My issue with this purchase is that I ordered a California king and it is the size of a regular king.  I have triple checked my order and packaging and it all states  thatI ordered and received a California king. What I finally realized is that the dimensions listed for king and California king are the same!?  My purchase does not fit the bed well and I would not have ordered this set had I realized that I was really getting the size I needed. I have already washed it and have thrown away the packaging.  If I hadn't I would be returning it.
