I bought this robe last year at the end of season and stored it unused until this winter. This robe pills / sheds horribly once it's washed. There are blue fuzz balls all over my house, stuck to my pjs, in the bed. I washed it a few more times hoping i could end the cycle after the initial wash,  but no such luck. The Sherpa collar is even blue in color now from the pilling. It's in such bad shape, and only worn a couple times but it's going in the trash. The quality is so low that I'd even be ashamed to donate it to goodwill.
