Does anyone know how this duvet compares with similar pottery barn or west elm duvet covers?

The material is much thinner and starchier. In the end, I returned mine and decided to spend more money on one from Pottery Barn. But for the price, it is a decent product.

I just looked at the P.B. website and their dark handled flatware is NOT the same. There is a very similar one on West Elm (owned but the same company as P.B.) but at more than 2x the cost.

Brian, I have a feeling that you might like this cover better than I did. I live in New England. I was looking for a cover that was over stuffed and cozy. This cover is not over stuffed. It's light weight. I was not impressed at all. I put it away for the winter but plan to pull it out in May. So this cover might be just right for you living in Florida.

It is like the other comforters I have. Frankly I think there is a lot of confusion as to the difference. My chief concern was that it would fit my bed and it did not actually contain down. It does fit , it is warm, it has no down. After receiving it I bought another size and color.

Mine covers the top and hangs down the sides a bit, like a "coverlet". It's nice to have a longer bedspread underneath in a contrasting or neutral color. My pillow covers match the bedspread. Matching fur pillows are purely optional. I think it looks fine either way.

If this comforter isn't quite like the hotel quality in terms of getting the most fluff, where do you buy the high end hotel quality down comforters? I'm not too concern about the warmth or how heavy it is, what I'm looking for is the fluff and softness of the material. I don't want the comforter to look flat on my bed and I wouldn't cover it up with a duvet cover. I like the white classic look, the point in getting this type of comforter is because of how it looks I wouldn't cover it up even though white is hard to take care of.

I bought this 2 years ago and found it to be well constructed and attractive, though I always kept is in a duvet cover. The corners have the strap for ties, which I also love to help keep the cover in place. Alas, it is just too warm for us. We live in Maryland and keep our furnace at 66 degrees at night, but would still wake up too warm so I gave it to a friend. But the weight is fabulous- light weight, warm, well made. I would love to find another just like it that is not quite as warm. I started a few years ago with down- too warm- hoped this light weight alternative would work, but did not.

It is a awesome duvet cover. Very soft. Just a basic cover. I put my existing comforter in it. Hope that helps.

I wish I had gone witha king duvet and cover. I had a queen so I went with the queen. It almost seems like my 15 year old jeans... a little on the short side so you see the mattress, the box spring. It's not that pretty. Not sure about how a king would look on a queen duvet though. It's a nice cover though, I don't regret buying it, just with I had gone BIGGER on the duvet to begin with. Hope this helps a little bit.

I have a white comforter inside the duvet so it's hard to tell. All I know is that it is beautiful. super soft and hardly wrinkles. I liked it so much I bought 2 more for my sons and they love it also. I think if you put a dark comforter inside that you might see thru it. Order one, if you don'd like it, you send it back and they refund your credit card.

The cover is pretty thin but well-made. It's a synthetic, soft, brushed fabric, feels sort of like little kids' summer PJ fabric. There's a zipper in a logical location and the cover is not too hard to remove - considering it's a sort of brushed material on a tempurfoam pillow. It takes a little patience to get it on and off, but it's not a two-person wrestling match, either. It washes well and comes out soft and without shrinking. You could also put an oversized sham cover of your own on it. I have one from Ikea that fits relatively well.

I am looking for a thin duvet insert, not fluffy, and thick, it's to stuff and not sleep with. Please give me the measurements of thickness on this cover.

It does not appear that either of these will work for you. The king is 104" x 94" and the Cal King is 100" x 98". Your size is 108" x 92. You may have to go to a different duvet cover. If you do decide on this brand, then the king size would be the closest fit. Hope this helps.

If the sizes are the same but the prices are different I would purchase the lower priced one. I wish I had a better answer. That's what I would do. It an amazing comforter. You will really like it.

The duvet has a bunch of colors in it. It has a golden color, a purplish color, and it's a grey-taupe :) Sorry not much of a clear answer, but there isn't much this won't go with! We ended up getting the chocolate brown quilted blanket to go with it and it looks great!

I think the warmth just depends on the type of duvet insert you put in it. The duvet cover itself is like two normal cotton flat sheets that are sewn together on three sides (plus there are buttons on the fourth side to give it a "finished" look once you put the duvet insert inside).
