I was very pleased at how smooth and luxurious these felt out of the package. Once I washed them, however, they did not feel nearly as smooth. I hope they will improve as time goes by. Also, neither one has a pull-tab on the zipper. I checked my washer and dryer to see if perhaps they had come off in the wash but could not find them.
Response from TDS: Thank you for your honest feedback. All of our classic white and white striped duvet covers come without the wrinkle free chemicals, which might make them appear not as smooth directly after washing. Also, non of the white and white striped, nor the children's duvet covers come with pull-tab zippers in order to prevent children to open them accidentally. It's not a defect on the product.
