is this considered a lightweight duvet for summer (not too hot)

I think so but our bodies adjust differently as far as temperature so don't quote me on it

Our down alternative comforters are medium weight and ready for year round use.

Yes, I live in the Inland Empire of Southern California. I have this in a West Elm Cotton Duvet, I used a blanket and top sheet when it was cold out this winter. Now this is all I need. I run hot and always have the window open, a fan on or the air conditioning going from this time of year. Some times this is to much, but unless your using just a sheet of light quilt, I don't think you will be disappointed.

Hello K. Green- I wouldn't advise using a comforter in the summer. I can't say for sure not knowing your climate but I would think this would be a colder weather comforter. Designer Living Customer Service

Its definitely for summer. Its very light weight. In the winter you will have to switch to a heavier comforter. I have washed it twice, and its fine. I love the look of it, as well as the decorative pillows.

It is fairly lightweight and comfortable for Fall weather. I have been using it in conjunction with my electric blanket this winter and am very happy with it. Regards, Charlie Adkins

This comforter is very lightweight yet warm. I was quite surprised by the warmth it offered since it weighed only a couple of pounds. Fabric is silky feeling and looks great.

It's perfect for a warmer climate comforter. Lightweight, not heavy. I love this set.

Because it is polyester and not cotton, I find that it doesn't breathe that well. I tend to push it off myself during NC summer nights because I get sweaty. However, it isn't as heavy as most comforters you'd find, and I really like it!

No it is definitely a comforter. It is thin, light and perfect for all year round.

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

I have to be honest, I use this comforter year round. We have central air and I like it to be chilly in the room & then cover up with more than a sheet or light blanket. Its not a heavy comforter like some are, you're laying there & the weight pushes your feet down to one side or the other. But again, I keep the room nice & cool year round, so I don't switch out to a bedspread in summer. Only if opening the windows do I kick off the bedspread lol.

I didn't count the squares, Judith, and I have a duvet cover on it all the time, but I can tell you the down does not shift, and it keeps us warm in the winter and is not too heavy in the summer. I would recommend a duvet cover to keep it clean, but I would give this comforter five stars.

We live in the Northwest. We have found that the comforter is great, as long as our weather does not get too warm. When it does get warm in the summer, we find this comforter is a bit too warm. This comforter is described as "lightweight", and it is light and airy to sleep under, but it might be too warm for you. Hope this helps.

No it is very light which is one of the main reasons I love it. I am Diabetic and heavy covers cause pain in my lower legs and feet. Also I am hot natured so this comforter is perfect for hot or cold day's in NC. The fabric is ultra soft against my skin. I want to buy more of these comforters but don't know much about duvet's. You will love this comforter I am sure !!!

It's definitely not a quilt for Summer. Thin quilt as far as appearance goes, but it's very heavy and warm. Have to fold it down to the bottom of the bed in the Summer. High quality.

I'm in California and tend to be warm in most beds, this comforter is perfect for me. If you need more weight and tend to not be warm enough in bed you will need additional blankets or you could buy two and place in a duvet which I've considered but in the end I don't need the added warmth.

I have a light weight Down comforter which I will put on my bed when the weather warms. I would say thiscomforter would be to warm when the temperature reaches the sixties.
