I was wondering the same thing, and while your reply is informative... it doesnt really answer the question. There are actually 4 different prices for what appears to be the same comfort. You said that this is because they are different weights, which would make sense, but what weight is each price. If it was different weights based on size that would make no sense... these are all 4 queen size comforters that show 9 lbs as the weight and 700 fill power. Thanks/

BTW, mine is soft, warm and the fur is in tact. I even machine was and dry it. The person who complained may have bought a cheap knock off. We have 5 blankets and they are great! Amazon seems to be cheaper than Ebay on these. Also, if u search fleece u may get the short fur or flannel type blankets.

The comforter is very plush, and extremely warm. It is more like multiple pillow type. If you order this, you will not be disappointed. By the way, I have had this over a year with no evidence of wearing.

Hi Charles, The description on the twin XL says it is 68"x90" so it should fit your bed without issue but I own the king size and cannot be sure if the sizes in the description will hold true when the item arrives. Having said that the one I bought was very close to the size in the description for the king. Regarding the fill it is 100 ounces not 100% and I would guess that the difference can be attributed to the size of the comforter itself at the King is 90"x103". Personally I would go with the full/queen which is a tad wider and the same length while containing 77 ounces of fill compared to the 60 on the twin xl. I do live in a colder climate though so the warmer blanket makes sense for me. It all depends on your needs which oneyou should go with. I hope this is helpful.

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.

The answer to your question will be subjective depending on the respondent. I do not find this comforter overly thin but I have had fluffier comforters. That said, the better measure for me is if the comforter tends to lose any of the fluffiness that it starts out with and I have used this comforter for 7 months and have not seen any reduction.

I have 3 pair--and all 3 are sized slightly different. I have one set that is perfect, and of the other two, one top flat sheet is just almost too small for the bed while the matching fitted sheet is far too loose on the queen bed, the other set has a fitted sheet that is far too small. I think it is the luck of the draw what you get. They must be made by different manufacturers for the same seller. I have one set that the material itself is an entirely different quality than the other two as well. I have grey, light blue, and the brown. The grey is the only set that fits perfectly with a large enough top sheet. I have 3 pair--and all 3 are sized slightly different.

Hi :) The tag says it's a minimum of 75% down; I've never even seen a real feather come out of this thing so I figure it's closer to 100%. I'm not sure of the thread count (700 fill power does not equal thread count, does it?), but it's tight enough that I rarely see down come out of it, so if that's the concern, hopefully that answer will work until we get a more definitive one. I put mine in the washer on cold/gentle sometimes and it has come through just fine, so I'm going to guess it's washable. I've had mine for about a year. Mine is not as fluffy and full as the one in the picture, but with a duvet cover it gets me through the winter up here in the Pacific Northwest just fine, and it is even nice in the summers.

Great question. This is a mid-weight down comforter and most definately could be used year round. I sleep like a baby and don't feel weighed down because it is light and fluffy. Hope this helps.

This is not a summer comforter. I would agree with Kathleen Diehl & Patricia Fairchild, it's a spring, fall, winter (depending where you live) medium weight comforter. Thought for you, have you thought of just buying a light weight blanket and a pretty sheet to put on top for something lightweight? You might also try doing a Amazon search for "quilted bedspread" or for "bedspread coverlet". Coverlet being the key word. Or do a search for "Matelasse coverlet". Also if you do a search for "quilts", you will find most of them are lightweight. Comforters tend to be heavier and made more for cold weather months and something to snuggle in to keep warm.

It's very light weight. Like sleeping under a feather but warm as toast. I used only a sheet and this comforter all winter and was so pleased. Also purchased one as a gift and was told the she felt the same way. It's so light and she was shocked when she would get up that her room was cold and she had no idea. I would fight for this comforter! It also washes very well. Hope this helped!!

I bought this for use on our guest bed. My daughter has commented that she likes it so much she is going to buy the same comforter for herself. It is a substantial weight.....not as light as the one we use, but not too heavy for my personal preference. Hopes this helps.

Probably due to the packaging---are you getting the King or Queen? I believe it's wrapped tightly and condensed, which is why it seems so heavy. They are fantastic! Even in the cold New England winter, though it is thin, still very warm!

A down comforter is full of feathers. Depending on the type of feather is going to make a difference in quality. As far as I am aware Siberian goose down is the best, and the reason is the quills (i guess thats what they are called) are soft so you don't experience that feather poking problem. Some people have allergies to feathers, or in general just don't want to deal with it, so they buy alternative comforters. They can be made of different materials, but in my experience, they are always firmer, and usually denser. Some people like that. Also, fill count is going to make a difference. If spending over $100 is a big deal to you like it was to me, I would recommend doing a little research on the specifications of the comforters, and then going to a store and feeling them for what you like. The best deals I have found are on amazon, but you may not want to go into the purchase with a "blind-feel".

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.

I'm very happy with this. I don't know if it is THE heaviest but I love it. Have it in a duvet and use it year round. See my previous comment. The first one I ordered was disappointing to me. The seller immediately contacted me and suggested this one and I am so glad I did. Has been holding up great!

The best description would be all-season. It's the ideal comforter for temperature range of 40 to 70 degrees Fahrenheit (most homes maintain this temperature range so the comforter is perfect for all-season use). It may be too warm for year-around use in Texas or Florida and not warm enough for Maine or Montana. Hope this helps.
