Oversized 500 Thread Count Damask Stripe White Down Comforter

I chose to wait and use this comforter for 3 months BEFORE I wrote a review, as first impressions of a product don"t always mean quality over time. This comforter is EXTREMELY warm for the amount of weight it has itself. I have kept a cover on it since I bought it as I tend to be a tad perfectionistic about keeping the white cover WHITE! But the comforter itself has an extremely soft&supple material-If I didn't have to worry about washing it, the material is super cozy, alas I opt for a cover! Now the only con is the initial 'down shedding'....if you have EVER owned a feather comforter before, you know that it's inevitable that in the 'infant' years of your comforter, the smallest down feathers are going to make thier way out of the comforter-no matter how high count the cover-these tiny blasted things get everywhere; I am just over 3 months and it's finally slowing down. The total amount shed was probably only a toddler sized hand full of 1-4mm sized down;noticeable only because I have dark plum colored cover&linens-never would have guessed it was even shedding had I not seen them! I have yet to even feel a real feather-the ones that most other comforters have that randomly poke you and you try to grab em&they suck back in---not with this one! Best Buy! The last down/feather comforter I bought I paid three times the price for&had way more problems with by the time 3 months rolled around!

I was very disappointed in this item. It's more like a down blanket. I would never call it a comforter. It's not much more than 1/2 " thick. Not at all what I was expecting as a "comforter".

I was so excited to receve this. Most of the reviews were great and I was expecting a wonderful down comforter to keep me warm this winter. Boy, was I ever wrong. The fabric actually feels ok, but it would be nice to have some down in a down comforter. 700 fill yeah right. There is some in this spot and that corner, but it is so unevenly distributed ( even fluff after fluff ) that I am just giving up and returning it. What's so bad is that I bought three of these awful things ( two for family gifts ). I won't even give them to anyone because I would be embarassed to do so. The list price is ridiculous. There is no way this thing ever cost that much anywhere. It shouldn't cost more than $20 and I still wouldn't buy again. Needless to say, very upset about this item.

I would not buy this at all. It is not what is described. i went through 2 comforters hoping that it was a fluke. However, Some of the squares haven't feathers so the comforter is lopsided not to mention that it is not warm. I would be better off putting a sheet on my bed.
