Just received this today and I am THRILLED!! I am so glad I saw all the good reviews and decided to give it a try before spending $300+ on a good duvet. It's soooo comfortable and fluffy. I had a duvet from Ikea in college before, and at that time my bed was super comfortable. Ever since then I only had regular comforters and it was never the same. I bought this hoping to have my bed be as comfortable as it was in college and turns out it is even better! This comforter feels like comforters you only find in fancy hotels or rich people's houses. I used to housesit in college and their bed felt exactly like mine does now, and I'm sure they probably spend upwards to $800 on duvets.I bought this along with Pinzon Paris Printed Duvet Set, King, Light Grey and they go together perfectly because those sheets are sooo soft and beautiful. And I also bought a mattress pad - Pinzon Basics Overfilled Ultra Soft Microplush King Mattress Pad (no, I'm not a Pinzon spokesperson) so now my bed feels heavenly. I haven't slept with all of them together yet. I received the pad yesterday and the comforter/duvet cover today. But I loved the pad so far. I can't wait to sleep in my bed tonight. I'm sitting on my bed as I type this because it's so incredibly comfortable.So in summary, I was thinking I was going to have to spend close to a $1000 for a nice duvet, duvet cover and mattress pad. Turns out for less than $300 I got the same comfort and look. A duvet like this alone would probably cost close to $1000 from an upscale store.So yes, BUY THIS!!!!!!!!! Read more

I had been shopping for 1 month or so for a comforter..Bloomingdales, Macy's, LL Bean, The Company Store, etc. I decided on this comforter/seller due to the great reviews. I wasn't sure which comforter to buy - queen or king, and either the 800TC, 1000TC or 1200TC. I bought the king size in 800TC, and it's perfect. I have a queen size S&F that's 13.5" thick mattress with a standard profile box spring (so, higher than the low profile). The comforter is placed so, the length of the comforter is across the width of my bed. This allows for the comforter to cover my bed down to the top of the bedframe on the side/width of the bed. There's enough coverage of the width part of the comforter to cover the length of my bed with enough overhang at the foot of the bed.As far as the comforter, itself, it is well constructed and is soft enough that it could be used alone/without a duvet. It does make a little crinkly sound, but that's to be expected due to it being brand new...it'll soften up over time. I decided to get the 800TC because I wanted the down to breathe which is important for regulating the temperature of the comforter. And, the cotton with the 800TC is woven tight enough to prevent feather leakage. I just bought the comforter so, I don't know about durability. I've already used it several nights and so, far the temperature of it is perfect. I keep the temperature in my house at 68F during the night and I'm warm enough without being too warm....and I tend to get warm during the night. As suggested in another review, I contacted the seller prior to ordering to ensure that I got the baffled comforter and that's what was provided. It was in a plastic sealed bag, new and unused. Note that the seller was very quick to respond and extremely helpful.FYI - read a review about down comforters during my search and discovered some very helpful hints. Hungarian Goose is the bed down as it regulates temperature the best and is more durable. When getting the comforter, fluff it a little bit to get the loft. In the summer, only fluff it once or twice to reduce loft, which causes the comforter to be cooler. In the winter, fluff it a lot for warmer comforter temperature. As far as duvet, stick to a cotton one b/c it allows the down to breathe, which is important for the down to do its job of regulating temperature. Polyester, cotton sateen or silk will trap the heat resulting in the down getting moist and it won't breathe..therefore, the temperature won't regulate and you'll probably get too hot. Wool breathes well so, no worries on that. Read more

When it came time to finally replace a heavy-weight winter down duvet from a European manufacturer I originally purchased in 1990, I didn't want to spend the $1200+ and decided to take a chance on this duvet insert. If I didn't like it it any way - and I'm usually very picky about my bedding - it would going right back and I'd purchase something else. So far though, I'm pleased with this item.It arrived quickly direct from the vendor, vacuum sealed in plastic and extremely compressed. There was absolutely no discernible odor of any kind. But if you've had any experience with down, you'll know that down clusters sometimes have trouble regaining loft when highly compressed for long periods. It took me a good 48 hours to get the comforter to fully puff up, and that was with me hastening the process by letting it air, fluffing in the dryer, and hand working the down in each of the individual baffles to both distribute (un-ciump?) and re-loft each cell. Now I'm getting at least 5+ inches of loft throughout the duvet. Sizing for the queen size is spot-on at 90x90 inches.Holding the duvet up to a bright light, the baffle box construction and clusters of down in each cell are clearly visible. Even though the duvet does not have side gussets, the baffles around the edge of the comforter appear to hold slightly more down each than the baffles throughout the center of the duvet making them slightly puffier even without the side gussets. Otherwise the cells appear to be very evenly filled throughout the duvet. Only down clusters can be seen. A good sign: absolutely no feathers can be identified, nor can I feel any evidence of feather shafts/quills through the exterior fabric when I was working each cell to break up the compressed down. It seems to have a very high down/feather ratio.The cover is a very tightly woven, smooth, white cotton with even stitching and nice silver-y braid/cord sewn around the outside edge. There were no excess or loose threads anywhere on the comforter. I placed the comforter in a duvet cover to use for almost a week before removing it to add an additional duvet protector. Surprisingly there was absolutely no sign of any stray down or feathers working their way out of the comforter for that first week of general use. It is definitely heavier, denser but slightly less lofty than my old comforter. But seems to be quite a bit warmer than the previous designed for a Norther Europe climate.I was able to use the manufacturers label and trace the comforter back to the factory in China that produced it. They meet all of the relevant standards - oeko tex-100, RDS, certifications etc. - and they produce products for a number of different brands. I'm normally very hesitant to purchase something of this nature made in an unknown factory in China, but the quality and value of the item is certainly of very high standards.Lastly the "but" I want to point out about the item received: The item I ordered was a Hungarian Down, 750+ FP, 65 oz fill, 800 thread count Queen comforter. But the manufacturers label on the item received shows that it's a 750 FP, 60 oz fill, 1200 thread count Queen comforter. Even though the roughly 10% of down fill difference is not something I would call out, the description clearly matches a very similar product sold by Eqyptian Bedding at a slightly lower price.
