Everyone says 'so thin' - does it look like a comforter when on the bed or more like a sheet? I want at least a little loft/fill to fill the duvet.

It certainly is not as flat as a sheet. I have a cover for mine and it has some loft to it, just not the three or four inches you have with down.

It is about an inch thick. You're asking the wrong questions though. Who cares how thick it looks? All that matters is how it performs. This comforter is perfect for summer. It lays so nice, is some how both warm and cool, and has just an overall great feel to it.

I have had the topper a couple weeks. So far, it isn't too warm. I have an older mattress and the topper gives my bed just the right fluffiness...not too much and not too little. I can understand the concern of the bed being too warm. I think sheets that are cooler to the touch would make the difference. I also purchased a duvet insert. I chose the medium fill. This may be too warm in the summer. If it is, I may try a different cover before I invest in another duvet. Hope this helps!

Its more like a quilt .. I use it as my comforter. Its not as thick as the picture shows but still a very good purchase. I use it a lot and it still looks brand new.

It's a comforter and it's cheap looking. I exchanged it for something else, good luck

I am not sure if I answered as I was traveling. Yes, it is thin and I can see the bed frame & box spring through it, but as others said, I cannot see anything under the bed. The fabric is nice. It arrived very wrinkled so I ran it through the dryer at a low heat with a fabric softener sheet for 10 minutes or so and then pressed it. I wouldn't dream of using it in a master b.r., for a guest or kid's room it is fine.

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

Hi Jean,I don't know why they refer to the comforter as overfilled; however it is one of the best purchases I have ever made on Amazon. Just the other day I was contemplating whether I should order another one. It is a very warm, very cozy comforter and the King fits my bed perfectly.

It's not an extremely thick comforter, and relative to a down, it's pretty slim.I would think about this as more of a thick blanket thickness. For visual reference, the comforter just sitting on the bed, is around 2" thick. You would be able to squeez it thinner, or fluff it up, but that's about it.Hope that helps.

Yes, it is very fluffy.... Mine is also in a duvet, I fluff it up when I make the bed in the morning. The duvet will definitely keep the fluffiness down a little. but you can certainly tell you have a down comforter on your bed even in a duvet. This comforter is everything and more. Been using it since the colder weather and can't believe how warm it is!! Please do not hesitate to purchase....

This would be great... but you definitely need a duvet cover. This isn't actually covered with cotton, it's more of an insert (like you'd find in a throw pillow). But with my duvet cover, this is the perfect weight and it's not super puffy at all, but still has a nice weight and loft to it (not totally flat). I like to be cooler at night, and I live in southern Louisiana -- and this isn't too hot for me.

It is very thin, but I ordered a king and it was way to big for my comforter. I returned it. I didn't like 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.

It is very thin, but you can't really see through it. It is very soft though. It is striped but smooth and has button closures on end that keep the duvet secure.

This comes with a "duvet cover" (which means it is just a cover, no duvet). If you do not own a duvet, you will have to purchase one.To answer your first question, I use the unfilled duvet cover with a sheet during the summer, and then fill it with my duvet in the winter. For a lower-end, but decent quality duvet, try: Chezmoi Collection White Goose Down Alternative Comforter, Full/Queen with Corner Tab

No, you would definitely want something to go on top of it. It just looks like a generic down comforter.

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

This was for a family member but I helped her put her duvet cover on it. It seemed lighter than I expected, but very fluffy. I think it would depend on your use and how much cover you like when you sleep. She loves it.
