Purchased this set in black for my daughter, going off to college and dorm life. We looked extensively in stores and online, and it was hard to find a set in Twin XL that didn't look too juvenile. This set works perfectly, neutral enough to blend with roommate's bedding, and sophisticated enough for a college woman. It is also a nice weight, not too heavy, and since it is cotton it should wash nicely. She has only had it at school for a couple weeks, so time will tell how durable it is.
