What is the weight of the comforter? Would it be too thick for the summer?

It is nice for both summer and winter, but I like it warmer in summer and I use a blanket over it in winter. Not heavy though.

The weight is heavy. I thought it was to thick for summer. When I ordered I thought it was a luxurious comforter. The throw pillows are so fancy. In my opinion the pillows and the comforter are not compatible. I decided to keep it for awhile until I find another one.

It is too heavy for my spring/summer use. We tried it, but I'm already looking for a lighter weight for summer. Hope this helps you. We do love it, very pretty. My husband loves the grey shade & the feel of this set.

It's definitely not as thick as a fancy hotel comforter. It's thinner than my down comforter but the soft/coziness is very similar. I've only had it for about two weeks. It seems to keep it shape better than down which is nice, less of the common "settling" problem. I think with time this will be the perfect snuggle comforter but there are definitely fluffier comforters out there if that's your main priority.

The comforter is a thick summer comforter. However there are many different blankets. A blanket is subjective. You may be able to use it in the winter in some states but if you live in cold weather ie below 50 degrees than I say it's not a winter blanket. So I can't answer your question so easily. Some blankets are very thick and are rated for the cold winter some people tolerate cold and or heat at various levels. My suggestion is to purchase one and return it if it doesn't work out for you. I hope this helps but there are too many variables to your question.

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.

I would say it is about 2 inches thick? It is definitely less puffy than many of the down comforters

It is definitely summer weight. It is fine if you use it with another blanket in the cold weather.

Believe me!! It is a winter warm comforter. You could not have it on your bed in the summer.I love it. When I climb in bed it takes about five minutes and I am toasty warm.

It's hard to say if it will be too hot for you because I don't know what the ambient temperature you want it for. It definitely is lighter and cooler than my lightweight genuine down duvet.

It is heavy enough. It is ultra warm class and heavier than ordinary down comforters.

Hello K. Green- I wouldn't advise using a comforter in the summer. I can't say for sure not knowing your climate but I would think this would be a colder weather comforter. Designer Living Customer Service

On the package it says the summer comfort is 1.5lbs for twin, 2.1 for queen, 2.4 for king and 2.6 for cal king. That is the weight of the silk, but it doesn't give any weight info in relation to warmth like some clothing does. The choices they have in warmth are summer (this product) and all seasons, which is likely warmer. I live in Texas and this comforter is too hot in the summer and not warm enough in the winter for me. If we had a fall season it would be perfect, but Texas believes only in extremes. I like it enough that I may order the all seasons in addition to this one.

Yes, but not flimsy. A very nice comforter. I think it's all season weight.

I would say this is thicker, but i sleep with this during the summer months provided the air is on.

That kind of worried me when I saw it, because I didn't want to add much weight at all to our comforter. After reading other reviews, I decided to take a chance. I ordered the king size, and there's no way it was 22 pounds. The king size might weigh 22 pounds soaking wet and with a couple of bricks thrown in! My guess would be more like 10 pounds, maybe a bit less, including the box.

This comforter is a light gold. I will leave this on the bed in summer air conditioning so Florida should be fine. I love it!
