How thick is the comforter? Does it withstand heavy colds in Niagara?

It's thick and cozy, and sometimes too hot for California, but it's just polyfil not down, so I'd say you still might need another blanket underneath it.

Although this comforter is warm and cozy in Phoenix, Arizona, I think you'd need at least a fleece blanket under it in very cold climates!

I would have to say no, unless it's used with several other covers. We live in NJ and it's used by our grandson (age 6). It works great in the spring, summer and fall but in the winter we put a sheet, blanket and this comforter on top of it.

Cannot discern thickness, but it is not enough to function well. IE, during cold winter in NE US, it blows into the warmth of the shower. The bottom magnets are not heavy enough to keep me from whacking it away in frustration. Swearing loudly does not help restain the billowing.

It is a comforter. I would say it is medium; not overly thick, but more than a sheet.

It's warm but not the warmest. The warmness comes from the thickness and definitely not from the material. I wouldn't use it as extensive warmth in the Canadian winter by itself! Lol

I would not recommend it for below freezing temps. it is not thick. winter I use it and a down feather comforter. summer I only use this. I also live in Texas.

Its warm but not heavy at all. Not as thick as it looks on the picture. But its still worth it.

it's a lightweight comforter, quilted, one layer, not sure the exact thickness but I did add a blanket during the winter. I like it a lot but it's not heavy, I would be cold without the layer underneath.

This unit isn't constructed as an expedition bag with floating, overlapping v-channels. The long seams are sewnthrough but the comforter is so heavy & the fill so insulating that there are no cold spots. You can open your bedroom windows in January and still be toasty.

I had to take it to a commercial laundry mat to wash it. It very thick & heavy. But so far I have had no problems with it unraveling or tearing up in the wash. I only dried it to damp and then left it out overnight to dry completely. We love it. Warm during the winter and keeps cool in summer. Great for the price!

I haven't washed it yet, but I imagine it would, but only with cold water and then hang dry. Otherwise, I think it might get damaged, from prior experience with another comforter.

Ah, I see you look at similar things as I do before you purchase, good for you. Check it out first. Yes, this comforter is definitely thick enough to warm in winter, and yet a cool enough fabric to leave on the bed all year. I had it on mine all spring & summer, and it was quite comfortable.

It's pretty heavy and plush. I'm in Michigan and it's already been a little on the warm side at night with this comforter. It is a gorgeous set, especially for the price though, so I recommend it with the knowledge that it will keep you warm : )

This comforter is a perfect weight for cold weather (we live in Maine and keep the heat low) but would be too much for a hot night.

It's very lite in weight and soft ,I live in ohio and the winter night's as been very cold and had to use a blanket along with it to stay warm so it should be perfect for you even though it was not the comforter I wanted they sent it by mistake,never did get the comforter I wanted

It's pretty heavy. I'd say it's a medium weight comforter. I use a cotton duvet cover to help keep it clean since we have dogs.

Depends on what you consider overfilled. It is thicker than a comforter but thinner than what I would consider a luxury stuffed comforter. For the money, it's a great deal. I have had mine for almost 3 years and it has held up well. It washes well and it hasn't gotten lumpy or flat (which usually happens with these types of comforters). The major plus is that it is synthetic so you can wash it. Hope this helps! :-)

The comforter is average heaviness. Although is seems thin out of the bag it is quite warm and looks thick on the bed. Hope this answers your question.
