I have the Soft-heat microfleece so cannot describe the difference but have been happy with my purchase; this is the 3rd winter using it. It is very lightweight and soft and heats quickly. I do sandwich it between another blanket and a comforter for strength so that we don't pull on it--I suspect this one might be more tear-resistant. Some have complained the wires of the one I have are in a tissue-like layer so I have been careful to not pull on it by itself. When I saw this ribbed one I wondered if this was the manufacturer's answer to that problem--with stronger exterior fabric to support the wires? Not sure but I can say I am happy so far with the Soft heat micro-fleece.

I agree with a prior answer that the primary difference is the fabric itself. The Ultra Micro Plush is knitted with a triple rib pattern that is more attractive and the Luxury microfleece is 'plush' and smooth. I bought the Ultra with the ribbed pattern as a gift for a relative. I felt it looked more expensive and would probably retain its looks longer than the smooth 'plush'.

I'm sorry I can't help with that one as I have never seen the luxury microfleece. Almost sound like the same thing. I'm sorry I can't help. I didn't want to just ignore your question.

I think the cheaper one is smooth fleece and the higher one is ribbed fleece. I have the ribbed. It's very plush and warm. Hardly need to turn on the heat. The heat is very subtle no hot spots.

Even though I didn't help you much, I can tell you this:I agree with the other two answers as well, and this for me and my wife has been a superb blanket. It is very, very soft and warms very well and evenly-no hot or cold spots. I honestly don't think you can go wrong.

I have no basis of comparison to the $99.99 blanket, but we love our micro-fleece. I can't imagine why anyone would want a hotter blanket. I have never turned my side up to more than three, and usually I set it at 1 or forget to turn it on. My husband keeps his side at 4 or 5. The fabric is soft and fine to the touch. We do use a light cotton cover over the top to keep it clean, and surely that helps to keep in the heat. But we always have done this with electric blankets. This blanket is way nicer than any we have had before. /jgh

We chose to go with the velvet and don't regret it at all. It's durable and cleanable, soft, plush and very nice looking. I read a couple reviews stating that the microfiber squeaks more (material on material) which seems to hold in-line with our microfiber couch... No such issue with the velvet.

Sorry to say, I didn't notice that there was a choice of 'plush' except as I recall, the removable cover was described as 'plush'. The outside of this cover could be more accurately be described as a very short napped quilted velvet. I wash this cover regularly and it it a pain to put back on the naked foam pillow but then so is the pillow case. It doesn't slide easily over the 'plush' part of the cover. Overall, I still enjoy resting my tired head on this very firm pillow, but it's probably not for everyone.

I have purchased from both. First one a Firm HI loft from Amazon then another Plush hi loft direct from https://www.linenspa.com/. Not the link you have above. Both seemed to be the same. Amazon was a little higher if I recall if you use the 20% email signup coupon. However I have read several reviews that some of the "plush" versions were firmer than the firm so Amazon could have gotten a bad batch or something. Hope this helps

they have a variety in Buff. I'd read the descriptions to see the difference in material (some are moisture wicking, some to hold heat in). Sorry I can't be of more help but I bought the two I did for winter use. Having said that, I love my Buff and bought one for my brother for Christmas!

There are only two models available, the Classic and the Plush. This is the "Plush" From what I can tell the only difference is the fabric is softer (plush) and patterned. The Classic is a basic black or grey cotton-type fabric.

I would order the Cali king . They have changed them since I ordered my mothers. Her was soft and not as pokey as everyone is complaining about. Hers was more like the full down version I have. Didn't have the problems like mega feathers and getting poked all the time. I do advise checking jc penny's sometimes they have the full down comforters on sale less then $80 around this time of year. I also recommend the cover for them as it is natural for the feathers to come out and this helps with getting poked , keeping feathers & down out of your nose ( it happens) an keeps you comforter cleaner. Just was the cover instead of the comforter, because most washers won't hold the king or Cali king and its usually cheaper to buy a new one instead of taking it to the cleaners. I hope I've answered your question!

I would certainly recommend the hard surface (HS) version over the soft for many reasons. You will actually get the same amount of padding on the bottom of the HS as you would on the soft, as you can see in a couple of the pictures. The HS version is shaped as a wedge, and has what is essentially a rear exhaust instead of blowing hot air down towards your legs as the soft version does. The HS also has raised bezel to help stabilize your laptop while the soft version has absolutely no mechanism to keep your laptop in place. Hope this helps, and good luck with the purchase :) I would certainly recommend the hard surface (HS) version over the soft for many reasons.

1.) The ultra has ergonomic handles 2.) The ultra has webbed like plastic for under the arms, more flexible looking than the regular but I do not really know since I have not seen the regular in person.Those are the only 2 things that I know of.

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 ISeries Bradbury firm is the luxury model for the Ceremony which is now know as the Merit, the inside of this 2 mattresses (Bradbury firm and Merit) is almost the same the only difference is that the Bradbury firm looks better and it is sold for more in expensive neighborhoods and that is why you can not find it on the internet but instead you will find the Merit "Ceremony". Anyway if you want a firm mattress you are in the right place and if you want a plush mattress you can get the Applause Plush which is now know as the Vantage Plush or you can get the Ceremony "Merit" which is the mattress that is compare to the Bradbury firm. This is the link for the Vantage Plush http://www.amazon.com/Serta-Perfect-iSeries-Applause-Mattress/dp/B007UQWUB4/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1396330943&sr=1-1&keywords=applause+plush This is the link for the Merit SPT http://www.amazon.com/Serta-Perfect-iSeries-Ceremony-Mattress/dp/B00I0NSTQG/ref=sr_1_1?s=home-garden&ie=UTF8&qid=1396330973&sr=1-1&keywords=merit+mattress If you have any other questions please let us know.

hey jake, Super Freak Button Type: sliding switch with (3) heat settings vs. Speed Freak Button Type: Dial. The Speed Freak dial was really annoying. I kept having to adjust it back because it's located in such an awkward position (imagine a trigger on a paintball gun). Coupled with the fact that the Speed Freak weighed more than what I was use to my fingers kept slipping from hand/arm fatigue of holding it up; sliding the heat settings up on the dial. The Super Freak was noticeably lighter when compared to my sister's Speed Freak. They both have the nonslip texture which is great if you're like me and leave the dryer running; tend to place it on it's side on the sink countertop. On Amazon Super Freak costs 63.99 versus the 62.50 you'll spend on the Speed Freak. This is less than what I paid a few months ago (around $75/Holiday promotions?). Super Freak has a slightly wider nozzle while the Speed Freak looks more narrow. That being said the Super Freak is slightly shorter(back to the end of the nozzle) when compared to the Speed Freak which is longer (back to the end of the nozzle). Ultimately they're both 2000 watts with 7 heat settings and (2) concentrator nozzles. Bottom line is your personal preference. For me the selling point was the weight. It use to take me a long time to dry my hair; I have to section it and use a barrel brush. So, weight/size was a concern of mine. The Super Freak is light enough for me to manuever, and provides a strong/constant stream of heated air; it's cut down my drying time by half. I hope this helps out a little.

You would have to try the blue (less firm) one. I only have the black one so I cant make a comparison. The blue one would have been too soft for me.

Apparently one is softer. The blue is, but it is way to hard for me. I can't use it at all. It is only $40.

Different people use "microplush" to mean different things. If you mean to ask if the dark portion is similar to microfleece, it is not. Both the light and dark sides of this comforter are made from the same polyester material and are of equal quality and softness. To me, the bedspread feels like a typical soft cotton, similar to cotton sheets (noting that it is not actually cotton, but polyester). I hope this helps!

I would recommend the plush for softness, I ordered the plush high loft and it was perfect for me. I had ordered the low loft in the memory foam,and it was VERY thin. Unless you prefer a very thin pillow, I would go with the high loft. good luck!
