This set is good value for the money - it doesn't feel as cheap at it is, but also doesn't feel/look like a luxury comforter. I'm using it in my spare bedroom. The sheets are awful quality, which is what I expected. I don't plan to use them aside from the pillow cases as shams to layer behind the actual pillow shams. I AM having a really difficult time finding curtains to match this set though. The dark color in it is not quite brown, not quite gray. The most logical choice to me would be white curtains (which is also what's shown in the picture), but white curtains are very sheer which doesn't work well in a bedroom...I've found even when they say blackout they are not blackout if they're white. If anyone can recommend good curtains for me please comment here!
