Poor return policy

Reviewed in the United States on October 6, 2018

Be sure you want this product before you order it. This is because you can only return it if "unopened, unused & unwashed... and still in its original condition" -- plus they will "charge a 15% - 25% re-stocking fee." You can't even feel the comforter without breaking the sealed packaging. The package I received felt very heavy, but once I took the comforter out of it's sealed packing, it felt much more lightweight, which is what I wanted. The instructions say “wash before using," but the comforter had no odor to it and seemed fine to use without washing. However, when laying under the comforter it felt heavier than some reviewers had indicated, and it certainly felt heavier than a light blanket. The quality of the comforter seemed to be good, and I expect in the end I'll be happy with it.

Not what I expected, but not the worst...

Reviewed in the United States on December 29, 2018

Size: QueenColor: 08 - Dark BlueVerified Purchase

Here we go...

I spent hours reading product reviews for comforters that were washable, warm and within my budget (under $50). I purchased 2 of these comforters and they arrived yesterday. First off, the Navy and Gray colors aren'tt as dark as the picture shows, no big deal to me as I wasn't concerned about the color as much as I was about it being washable and warm!

We washed the Navy one first in a front loading washer - these are big comforters, not too puffy or thick but thick enough that it was a squeeze into the washer. That being said, just run an extra rinse cycle so all the detergent comes out and hang dry over a shower curtain rod or staircase bannister to let it completely dry.

Now here's why this product only received 3 STARS: As soon as I took it out and inspected it, so many seams were loose and coming undone! No stuffing had come out, but after one wash seams are already coming loose. We wash our blankets often, and the whole point of finding a washable comforter was so that we didn't need to buy duvet covers. However, after already washing both blankets, it's safe to say that we will be using duvet covers to protect them for more long term use.

Now for the positive: This blanket is so warm! Not too fluffy, which is what we wanted, but warm and cozy! I slept so well with it last night inside my new duvet, although I'm annoyed that the blanket seems to already show lesser quality than expected, inside a duvet it should last MUCH longer than if we used and washed it regularly.

Overall, not a horrible purchase. In my opinion, will not sustain regular washes, but with a duvet it will last! That being said, buy the cheapest color I'd you are going to end up putting it into a duvet!

First time ordering a bed set online, but they feel so great! They have been through a few washes and hasn't faded or got ruined. The cotton also hasn't been ruined by the dryer. Very cozy. They stay fresh all night.

Terrible quality

Reviewed in the United States on September 16, 2018

Size: Twin/Twin XLColor: 08 - Dark BlueVerified Purchase

Had a lot of lint after the first wash. Thought maybe I had something in the wash with it that caused it (although in hindsight, I realize I washed it alone). It’s going on the trash. It’s only gotten worse. The stuffing seems to be coming out in the seams and it even has some tears. Horrible quality.

1st purchase ok, 2nd a wrinkled mess with loose threads

Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2015

Size: Twin/Twin XLColor: 02 - BlackVerified Purchase

Updated 10/31/2021 – more loose threads. This is the 2nd of these we ordered. The first one was okay until washed then the loose threads started. I thought it was a fluke so went ahead and ordered another. When this one arrived it was so wrinkled it required washing before using the first time. After washing that was when the loose threads started to appear. Now they are getting snagged and coming out in several spots. We won’t be getting more of these due to poor quality.

Original review - The biggest issue was the change in packaging. Likely due to the current shipping troubles, so they now use vacuum packing to get more into each shipping container. That might work just fine for many things but not this. What we ended up getting was a totally compressed wrinkled mess. At first I thought to just toss it in the washer, dry and that would remove the wrinkles but no such luck. Then the only plan B so to speak was to take the entire thing and use a hand steamer to get the mess flattened out. Even after going through all that, ninety minutes of steaming and still many of the hard pressed wrinkles still wouldn’t go away.

Then to top things off started finding stray threads everywhere? I have little doubt that the next time this is washed more threads will come loose needing to be cut off. This comforter is not what we expected to receive by any stretch. The way it was shipped and the shoddy threading ruined it.

We would never purchase anything from this company again.

Very Soft, Very Plush, Very Comfortable!

Reviewed in the United States on July 22, 2018

Size: QueenColor: 06 - TaupeVerified Purchase

I bought this comforter in the Taupe color - it is a teeny bit more brown than the picture shows (at least on my computer monitor), but it still matches my bedroom decor really well so I'm keeping it! It is super soft when you run your hand over it and it is super plush - I have not been able to get my cats off of it since I put it on the bed two days ago. I have a full-sized mattress and it covers it evenly, without being too long on any side (I DO fold it down about a foot and a half, which keeps it from touching the floor at the end of the bed). One thing I have noticed is that it gets a bit warm, but it is perfect if you have a/c running. I imagine that this will be perfect in the winter, and I won't need to pile additional blankets on it to compensate.
Overall, I'm very pleased with my purchase!

UPDATE:
I have had this for a week now, and one thing I noticed was a defect with a lot of extra string along one of the seams of a few the comforter squares. To keep my cats from getting caught in or chewing on the string, I had to cut it, which ended up opening that seam. So the squares are now connected, but so far it hasn't made any difference, and I don't think it will in the long run. I contacted the company anyway and they replied quickly and told me to get in touch with them immediately if it causes any issues, so I am keeping my 5 star rating for their fast reply and promise of service.
Otherwise, I'm still happy with it, and very glad I purchased it.

I bought 2 of these for my sons room. One red & the other dark blue/navy. They’re very soft & washed up nicely. Much better than expected. My boys love them. I was looking for the perfect red for my son! The red is brighter than pictured which is what I was hoping for. He’s very happy with it!

Very good value!!!

Size: Twin/Twin XLColor: 06 - TaupeVerified Purchase

I was searching for an inexpensive comforter set for our guest room. This set fits the bill! It's very soft and light weight. I got the taupe in twin size. The color looks just like it does on my computer monitor. The pillow sham that comes with the comforter has a flanged edge. I tried using it on my bed the same way it's shown in the picture. The flanged edge wouldn't stand up though because the fabric isn't stiff enough. I ended up turning the sham inside out (so the flange doesn't show) before I put my pillow in it. The fabric is exactly the same on both sides so I was able to do this. I think it looks better that way. The comforter comes in a vacuum sealed package and looks very flat when you first open it up. I put it in the dryer (on low heat) for 20 minutes before putting it on my bed. It fluffed up nicely! It did look a little wrinkled (even after coming out of the dryer) so I ironed it on low heat without even taking it off the bed. I haven't washed it yet. When I do I will take it to the laundromat and wash it in a large capacity washer. I think the people that had problems with it probably put it in their home washer and it got caught on the agitator.
