Down Alternative 300 Thread Count Comforter

I bought this because I had to replace my favorite down comforter after learning that I have severe dust mite allergies. I chose this one because it said that it was machine washable and it had great reviews. Initially, I agreed with the other reviewers--it is extremely comfortable and the perfect weight for the spring/summer in the northeast. With my duvet on, I could hardly tell that it wasn't a down comforter. However, the very first time that I washed it (in accordance to the label attached to the comforter), the seams ripped apart and the stuffing started coming out. I've had other machine washable comforters for years and never had this problem. Initially it seemed to be of good quality, but now when I inspect it, the quality of the materials and the construction seems questionable (the piping around the edges came off in some places, and the cotton cover tore as well). So if you're looking for something that you intend on machine washing, I wouldn't recommend this.

This comforter looked very nice out of the box, but it had only been on the bed for a few days before the fill began to clump up, leaving bare--and cold--spots. It is very skimpy in size, just covering the top of the twin bed. After washing, according to instructions, in a large-capacity machine--the clumping is worse. I needed something to keep my daughter warm in her cold bedroom during the winter, and this isn't going to work. I'm very disappointed in this comforter, and am still looking for something warm for my daughter's bed!

I would recommend looking closer at the dimensions and possibly ordering a size larger. The twin comforters I ordered barely came over the sides of the bed.

I bought this Item over 7 Months ago and i hate it, because it makes it really really hard to get out of bed every morning, it is so soft confortable warm and on top it looks good.
