DO NOT BUY THIS BEDSPREAD. It says "may shed a bit first couple of washings" or words to that affect. THAT DOES NOT EVEN BEGIN TO BE TRUE. I washed it before using it. It shed so bad that I thought it had destroyed my dryer. I ACTUALLY purchased a new dryer because I thought mine had died. When the delivery people pulled my dryer out so they could install the new dryer, THE WHOLE DRYER SYSTEM WAS FILLED TO CAPACITY WITH LINT FROM THE BEDSPREAD. IT WAS PLUGGING UP EVERYTHING. When they then cleaned it all out my dryer worked fine and they returned to NEW dryer to the business from whom I had purchased it. SAVING ME OVER $500 dollars, which is what I had paid for the new dryer THAT AFTER CLEANING OUT ALL THE LINT I DID NOT NEED. i WILL NOT EVEN DONATE THIS PIECE OF JUNK. AND I AM OUT THE MONEY I PAID FOR IT. REPEAT IF, IF YOU DECIDE TO BUY THIS BEDSPREAD DO NOT PUT IT THROUGH YOUR DRYER AS IT WILL ABSOLUTELY PLUG UP THE ENTIRE DRYER. I am not kidding, I am not over reacting. I can provide proof to anybody that wants to have proof. I cannot provide photos because I did not take any, but I can provide proof of what I am saying.
