This set is adorable and, most importantly, the materials are high quality. Soft and almost silky smooth. Comparatively, my husband bought a Disney Ariel set at Target before this set came- the material was SO rough and coarse, like sandpaper- and washing didn't help. I was worried that since this set was so affordable that we may have the same issue with the material- but thankfully not! As for durability, our little one had an "accident" in her bed and the sheets and comforter held up beautifully in the wash, I even used a little bleach and there was no problem. If you think the set is as adorable as I did- go for it!
