This duvet insert was thinner than expected but works well for me. It is the exact dimensions needed to fit my queen size bed which is a rare quality. I read other reviews about there being a "crunching" noise due to the feathers inside, and I can concur that the sound is there but it's not in your face unless you're really scrunching it up. The duvet insert out of the package looks basic and can appear cheap, however, after putting it into an actual cover it fluffs up and is very comfy. It keeps me warm at night but also not too hot. Great buy!
