I'm an avid lover of comforters. I moved into my apartment and in transition had to have an air mattress. I definitely thought the air mattress was not worthy of the comforter but it turned out fine! The color is pretty true to the picture and all the pieces were in tact. Of course be cautious with the white and stains but other than that it was definitely the best investment I've made in my bedroom. It's light enough to not smother you and still heavy enough to keep you warm in the winter
