    We got this one http://direct.tesco.com/q/R.208-7729.aspx (in double size), haven't taken it out of the bag - the polyester bit feels really cheap to me so it's going back :(

    It looks lovely in the pictures I am very tempted. Is the duvet cover most white with the red/pink runner?

    I know this may look like i'm having a "pop" at you - but what exactly did you expect from the product for the price you paid?

    If you want 500 thread egyptian cotton then buy a premium bed sheet. If you know you're getting a cheap polycotton blend then that's what you get. why moan when "it feels cheap"... it feels cheap because it is cheap.

    It's called a bed in a bag - is reduced considerably and states that it's a crap polycotton blend. You get what you pay for with bedding i'm afraid. I hope tesco refuse your refund (as a shareholder and a sensible person)

    I expect that it's the runner which seems "cheap" rather than the actual bedding. Mine is like that too but the bedding is lovely>>>:D

    I'd expect it to be of that quality for the price but it was reduced from £40 or whatever it was which is why I was disappointed with it. The cheap polycotton blend £2.99 duvet cover we got from Ikea feels loads nicer in my opinion so comparatively in my experience I'm disappointed.

    I was sharing my feelings about the product, it feels cheap to me so it's going back which I think is perfectly reasonable having purchased something online. I don't think I'm moaning just giving my review *insert shrugging smilie or similar*

    The runner is a very bright fuchsia pink!!
    The OH wasn't impressed!

    ETA: It is a nice bedding set though. The duvet cover is mostly white so you don't have to use the runner if you don't like a lot of pink. The embroidery on pillow cases and duvet is purple, dark red and green.
