Great out of the package, but wrinkled out of the dryer....
The Pinzon 400-Thread-Count 100% Egyptian Cotton Hemstitch Duvet Set feels like heaven just out of the package. It reminds me of the type you see at 5-star hotels, and the picture in the Amazon ad reinforces that layered design ideal.
But something changes when you launder this set. All of a sudden the softness is gone and the pieces become super wrinkled. This set needs to be ironed after being dried in an electric clothes dryer. (In the spring, when I resume drying bedding on my outside clothes line; perhaps this duvet set will be wrinkle free and will not need to be ironed.)
A bit of trivia: some folks call it a duvet, others call it a duvet cover. Even in this Amazon description, the terms are used interchangeably. Not everyone understands the terms. This set includes a duvet (duvet cover) and two shams. The duvet (or duvet cover) is a large two-sided piece that has no filling. You can slip it over any blanket or comforter you already own.

Soft, supple, wrinkled and a tad on the small size
I ordered two of these...a king size and a queen/full set. Both sets contain the duvet cover and two shams. The king is a standard king set and didn't work well for my oversized comforters or spreads. The queen/full is also standard sizing and I found it a bit cumbersome to deal with the duvet related to extra large comforters like feather filled.
To be fair, this IS a full/queen set so the sizing is accurate and I did not notice shrikage when washed. However, if you have an overly thick comforter or spread like I do then it will fit the full size much better than queeen. Thinner queen spreads, quilts or comforters should be fine as it does run true to size - just not with a great deal of additional space for extra large comforters such as a feather filled one (which was my main interest in this product). Outside of the sizing issue, this is a well made product with a VERY nice color - I'm often hesitate to go with eggshell as it often has an ugly brownish tint to it...no...
not that happy
What I was attracted to was the color and the photo of the product.
When I received my shipment I was excited to use my new sheets. I had also purchased in the same order the duvet and pillow covers.
I was disappointed when I washed them. I washed them in cold water with a mild detergent. Placed them in the dryer w/ fabric softening sheets.
When I went to remove them they were very wrinkled and had a very crunchy feel. I am not sure if htey are what they are advertised to be. I have other "high count" sheets and they never look like or feel this way.
