Crown CollectionLuxuriate Hotel 1000-TC Hypoallergenic Ultra Soft Design 100% Egyptian Cotton California King 98"x104" White Solid Pinch Plated Duvet Cover with Zipper Colser & 2pcs Pillow Case Set

I absolutely love this Duvet Cover! It has exceeded my expectations! I already have the Rest Evercool brand sheets & comforter (and I'll never go back to regular sheets), but that comforter, although amazing, it is pretty boring in the looks department - and it's not large enough to drape properly and look nice on our King size bed. My hope was that I could add this duvet cover on top without a duvet in it - just for looks during the day, then at night, I could fold it back and just use the other one. I was afraid that without a duvet, the pin tuck design might not look good - like it might look wrinkly or something. I was pleasantly surprised to see how beautiful it was - just as is! And unlike some of the other brands the pin tucks are very visible and defined.Also, he fact they they offer it in such oversized options so it still looks super nice and hangs down the sides on a tall king size bed with a thick mattress and thick memory foam was awesome!I find that I'm actually using it sometimes when we turn the AC down low in a room. I can't say it feels super soft, but it does feel like a good, thick quality. Not that's it's scratchy either - not by any means - it's still on the soft side - I just wouldn't guess that the thread count was this high. It's more like a bit stiffer material than some materials, but it actually does feel quite good. I do feel like it's starting to soften up even more as we use it too. It's definitely much better than those cheaper versions that are polyester or something like that, where they feel light and soft but they make you sweat!The dark gray is lighter than the stock photo, which is what I was hoping! It is a nice medium to dark gray (on my computer the photo looks like an extra dark gray - like close to a light shade of black).I'm so glad I spent the extra money to get this one! It's well worth it and I feel it will last a very long time!!

I am absolutely thrilled with this and I am a duvet snob. I feel it is absolutely stunning!! You will be able to see how many wrinkles were in the cover taking it directly out of the package. I don't think it is too many as this is a crimped cover which doesn't lay flat anyway because of the crimping so you must expect some wrinkles. To me they add some dimension. The crimping is very pronounced. I bought an 88 x 88 for my queen bed and it went down just about to the floor, maybe a couple inches above the floor which was great for me. Remember to always buy a pillow insert that is larger than the pillow size. So if you buy a queen size duvet make sure the pillows that you put inside of the pillowcases are at least king size or larger to make it look full. I did not have king size in the photo. It had three inner ties at the top and three inner ties at the bottom for a total of six. Perhaps it would be nice to have eight but it did not make any difference to keeping the duvet in its place because I put a king size duvet inside this queen size duvet holder because that is the way I like it. I don't like extra cover without a duvet. This is definitely 1000 thread count Egyptian Cotton because of its smooth feel, unlike lower thread counts. Perhaps other reviewers are not used to such a high thread count (1000 is not common), so it may not feel like cotton to them. So my recommendation is 100%, but please keep in mind that I haven't washed it and I just got it so I do not know how durable the crimping will be but if it doesn't hold up I will come back and let you know.

This duvet cover is so soft and comfy you will not want to get out of bed. It washed up perfectly and the pleats add such a lovely accent I just add a few pillows and it looks beautiful. I love it so much, I bought a second in a different color for the spare bedroom.

Same as picture - well built

I love that it is reversible, and I added battery operated lights. When I switch it to the scarecrow I will put white lights. I taped the battery pack on to the backside. Looks really cute.
