When it came it was vacuum packed and caught me off guard. At first I though maybe it wasn’t a down comforter because those are fluffy. Once I opened the plastic bag it was in it started to get air in it and it quelled my concern. I immediately washed it because I wanted to put it on my bed. I dried it based on the instructions and when it was all ready I put it on my bed. It was gorgeous!  I bought the light grey and purple. I’m super happy with my purchase!
