Just Georgeous
I was skeptical about buying this duvet after reading the reviews about the color running. But I bought shout color catcher strips and tested them on the shams i used 3 strips washed in cold water on gentle cycle and they really worked the color did not run onto the white. I love the duvet glad I decided to buy..

Looks great, but got ruined on the first wash
Just like the other reviewers, this set looked awesome, until it was washed. The colors all bled and there were dye splotches all over it. I rewashed it several times with no luck. I got this before Thanksgiving last year, and I tried just about everything to get it cleaned, but I think its ruined (and probably too late to return). I just happened to see this was on sale now, so it reminded me to write a review.!

Awesome with an orange focal wall
Did a Hawaii/tropical type theme in our guest bedroom with this....it looks AMAZING. Did a focal wall in an orange color called Micrometer from Kwal paint and did the other walls in same brand called Earth Smoke.
Now that I read other reviews here guess I won't be washing it. Since it's in the guest room it really doesn't get any use but hoping it doesn't get dirty...I absolutely love this set!

Ruined on first wash
I had the same problem as XP. Was so excited to get this set. Spent more than I should have on a duvet, but it looked fantastic in my new house and I was thrilled with it.
Came time for the first wash, followed all the instructions to the letter, and the crisp mod white came out completely tie-dyed. Looks terrible and I'm guessing there's no salvaging it. I'm just so disappointed because it took me months to find something that I really loved and was so excited to have this.
Hopefully others don't have the same bad results.

Look & feel great, quality disappointing
Soft and comfortable, it looks great in the room and feels really nice. The one thing that completely spoiled my excitement is that after the first wash the light parts of the duvet and shams discolored completely, and not evenly. I got a bit wary when I found very particular washing instructions everywhere inside the package. And sure but sadly enough! Even after following the washing instructions precisely, the darker color bled onto the lighter section. For this reason, I don’t recommend this set. You will be disappointed! I think the money I paid for this bedding should guarantee the quality.

Masculine and Feminine!
I love the pattern. It's bold and modern. I was looking for something my husband would feel at home in as well. Perfect balance of masculine and feminine. Plus, it's really soft!

Perfect!!!
I cant say enough good things about my purchase. Delivery was speedy, and the cover itself is amazing. It is softer than I had expected right out of the box, and I couldn't be happier. Thank you Crate & Barrel
