First off i am so glad i didn't listen to the review below. I used starch and this bed skirt was easy to iron. It took about 25 min. I have a king bed where the box springs are not twin long. I needed something that would be a bit forgiving with how it hung because my box springs are staggered, until i can get the long box springs. I looked carefully at how all the bedskirts hung and this one just looked the best. This will go with work in with lots of other bedding just a good timeless bedskirt. I rated it a 4 because i thought the material could have been a bit more heavy, its not bad though.
