Need a twin/twinXL for Ft Worth TX dorm room. Is this light or medium weight?

I would say that this is a medium weight and is plenty warm. It does not smother you or weigh you down. I am menopausal and it works great for me.

I would say medium weight, I use these all year round, we are in Central Texas, I actually have mine in a hotel style duvet, but I have used them alone or in more light weight duvet covers

The bed has the feel of between a ILD 12 to 14, the top is density of 4 and the middle is a 3, the bottom is high density.I'm 295 and 6'5" have been sleeping great after getting this bed, it doesn't heat me up as my regular spring mattress did.For me it feels like a medium soft mattress, but with good support.For my wife it feels like a medium firm, but she is much smaller than me.I hope that can help you.

I personally think this is a medium weight quilt. My husband and I both are very pleased with the construction and design.

It's not extremely heavy. I only picked it up to bring it inside from my porch. It's as long as the length of the bed. When together it's pretty light but all the boards together can be a bit cumbersome. A small hand cart would make it easy. It's the lightest bed I've ever owned especially to rearrange. I love mine!!! I put a double foam mattress on it. It wasn't hard to put together either. I managed it by myself.

I'm in my 20/30s and not that strong I thought it was really light. But maybe 40lbs like others have said, but it's a lot lighter then I thought it would be. When I think heavy I think of a box of hard cover books or bricks. It's lighter then a conventional mattress it's maybe a third as heavy. It's not solid so it can fold I pull it around and it kinda like pulling a sled with kids in it.

I don't like a heavy comforter or blanket over my feet, but this is very light weight. I live in NC and it is warm enough without making you sweat (which was my concern with a down comforter). I have been very happy with this purchase.

It is not what I would consider "LIGHT" - "MEDIUM" might be a better rating. I've delt with "HEAVY" before. My son has a "LIGHT" one in LA and uses it year round.

The manufacturer just released a lighter-weight version, where the inner and outer layers are both cotton. I now have my son sleeping in that one, and he is able to maintain a comfy temperature. (If you go to Facebook and like their page, you can get 15% off your order! and if you buy 2, you get another 15% off). I haven't seen the lightweight one on amazon yet. I do still make sure to keep baby's room around 70 degrees at night though.

The comforter weights about 7 lbs and so its not that heavy, it considered medium weight

Hi. I don't think we got the Twin XL, which is the dorm size. I think we got regular twin. That said, we have a very thick twin mattress with a pillow top, and the thing wouldn't fit over the mattress. Luckily we had also bought an encasement for the box spring, which wasn't as thick as the mattress in our case. So what we did was to trade, putting the box spring cover (which was deeper) on the mattress and the mattress cover on the box spring! I'm sorry, I don't know the actual measurements of this item (it's at my daughter's apartment, not here). But I did want to let you know that some mattresses are too deep for it! Hi.

My son is using his mattress in his dorm room with a plywood base kind of like a bunk bed. He is 5' 10" and about 173ish and finds the mattress to be very comfortable without a box spring. I hope this helped

It's a medium weight. Very nice quality. With a sheet and AC...I live in Texas....it's just right for now.

I have 2 sets on guest beds. They are light weight, wash well, very soft (flimsy) micro fiber. For the price, they are a good deal.

Its very light, I don't think it even weights a pound. Breathability comes a much from the sheet and duvet cover; both of mine are 100% cotton.

Very light. 1/2 pound, if that. Very strong though. Also is pretty spacious. Pull cord to sinch tight, with an over the top flap with two buckles

I got the Ikea one....with ac on 68 you are a cool one. This is extremely light...basically the weight of the duvet...not the comforter

Not heavy at all. You can pick it up with one finger. Quite roomy and compact. My daughter was thrilled with it. Perfect for city dorm shopping.
