Solid Black 300 Thread Count Twin Duvet Cover Set 100 % Egyptian Cotton with matching pillow sham By

These would be a great value except for skimping on the button closures. Placing them too far apart puts extra strain on them and the buttons tend to break off. Still, it's better than nothing. If you need a reasonably functional duvet cover, this will do.

Also, the duvet inside tends to slip out even when all buttons are working, making the bed a mess to sleep in. Constantly readjusting the duvet cover is a bother. Putting 2 to 4 more buttons in, would make the closure work so much better. I've used button-closed covers that did much better than this one. Or, the entire piece could be improved with a zipper or velcro.

In "saving" money by using as few buttons and as few button holes as possible, what could be a four or five star product becomes something just "good enough". It's cumbersome and inefficient as it is, making bed hygiene + decent aesthetics more difficult than necessary. To keep a duvet reasonably clean, the cover should stay better in place and be more simple to put on/remove, thus allowing for frequent changing.

Why not improve it and have happy consumers instead of annoyed ones? This is a poor trade-off between satisfaction and utility vs. labor and materials. All that said, it will do, and cotton beats polyester. You can fix it by buying and hand-sewing snaps (what a pain).
