I purchased this blanket at the beginning of the summer, when my down comforter became too much. If you purchase this, don't expect to get a comforter with a lot of loft; this is a lightweight blanket with a small amount of down filling (only 18 oz. in queen blanket). POSITIVES: It's just the weight and warmth I like for summer nights. The color is very nice (the photo in the listing is pretty close to the reality, at least for the green blanket). The size is good (I bought a queen size for my queen bed, and it fits well). NEGATIVES: Only one, really. Other reviewers described the blanket as "noisy." I didn't know what they meant, but they were right. There's something about the weave of the fabric that causes it to "rustle" when it moves. (Think of multiple petticoats under a full skirt, that kind of sound.) It's not enough to make me stop using the blanket, but it isn't quite the luxurious feel that the description indicates. I have not yet washed or dry-cleaned the blanket, so I don't know if the fabric will soften with age. OVERALL: I am quite satisfied with this blanket and would recommend it to others.

This blanket is the perfect summer weight, but i really cannot recommend it because it leaves feathers everywhere.

This arrived in perfect shape. I was very pleased with the quality, weight and texture of it. I bought the full size for a queen size bed, because I just wanted all the "fluff" to be on top of the bed. Perfect!!

I was a bit disappointed with the overall quality, color and feel of this comforter. The feathers are escaping as I write and are visible through the fabric. My suggestion is either a lower price for this item or eliminating it as an option on this website.

I was looking for an inexpensive down blanket for the summer, but was unsure about getting the purple color. When it arrived, the color was the soft color pictured, and the 230 thread count fabric is very soft - not crinkly. A satin binding provides a rich looking finish. Although I haven't used the blanket yet ( I bought it for the summer so am still using my down comforter), the fill and distribution of down looks good. I'm very pleased with the purchase - well worth the price for the well-known name brand product.
