We bought this for our 10 year old daughter. I think the pattern should last her through her teen years. It is bright and classic. The comforter is fluffy which she likes. There are a few stitches placed in towards the middle of the comforter that look out of place. I think they are there to help keep the filling from bunching. We are very happy with it though. We have washed it once and it was a little too big for our large washing machine.
