Silk Filled Damask Stripe 260tc Comforter

Rating

I love this comforter and I'm so happy I bought it! This comforter is well made. For those who've never had a silk comforter, they aren't puffy like down but instead flat so they drape nicely on the bed. Although lightweight, it's warm but still comfortable in the warm southern summers. I put a 320tc duvet cover on mine and I love how the comforter drapes on me. Feels very luxurious-as soft as down, only lighter and allergy free since silk is naturally dust mite resistant. I recommend using a duvet with this since it's dryclean only but with proper care you shouldn't have to do that but every 5-10 years. This is a bargain price, too! BTW, fill weight wasn't listed on overstock's website but the package says full/queen is 40oz and king is 50oz which is equal to other silk comforters I looked at at much higher prices. Very happy with my purchase!

The silk-filled comforter strikes a perfect balance between warmth and weight - it seems to float over the bed, yet holds in body heat just as well as any down comforter I've used. I've been told by doctor to avoid down products due to allergies; the silk option is great because it is naturally hypoallergenic, and I've had no problems so far. As for construction, the damask stripe cover is smooth, with a very soft 'hand', and all stitching is even and secure. The only drawback is that it only comes in white - but hey, that's what duvets are for. I liked this item so much that I came back and purchased one for my mom and one for my daughter. As always, Overstock's cheap and fast shipping made the experience even better.

I was looking to upgrade my bedroom set to mirror the type of bedding found in hotels but I am allergic to Down. This is a fantastic alternative. Plush but not heavy. Silk is suppose to keep temperature constant and I find it keeps me comfortable no matter what the room temperature is. Love it!

We bought two of these comforters. Although they are thin they are very warm, just like what other people already mentioned. The cotton cover is of good quality too. But, if you prefer something puffy, this may not be your choice.

I received my silk filled comforter more quickly than I had thought -- a very nice surprise. I opened the package and found the comforter to be of excellent workmanship and quality materials. When I lifted the comforter out of the box, I was surprised to find it was quite heavy for it's size (I got a queen size). I covered the comforter with a duvet and put it on my bed. I have slept under it for several weeks now and find that if it is not very cold outside, it is more warmth than I need. I have no doubt that when the temperature plunges, I will be very happy that I purchased it.
