I shopped around for my first down comforter and was surprised to see that this set cost about half of what department stores charge for a down comforter alone. I like that this is a comforter set with 2 down pillows, which goes great with my duvet cover set with 2 pillow shams that I also purchased on Overstock.com. The comforter is made of 100% down so there are no feathers sticking out. I used to sleep with 2-3 thick blankets, which would sometimes fall off my bed, but this comforter alone was enough to keep me warm at night. It's also lightweight enough that I can move and breathe. I love how it drapes over the edges and stays in place while I sleep. This also means less time spent making the bed in the morning. The baffle box construction is supposed to keep the down evenly distributed, but I have noticed some thinner see-through squares. I would rather have medium-to-firm support so I use the down pillows for display only. This is just a matter of personal preference, and I knew what I was buying. Even without the pillows, the comforter alone is worth the price. These aren't huge problems to me since I got great value for my money.
