The comforter is very thin.  The description should really list it as being "light weight".  However, the colors are absolutely beautiful and my boys love them.  I mean, the colors are just vibrant and rich.  I purchased the comforters for my boys and,  boys being boys, I'm just now sure how well they're going to wear.  I myself like a little weight on top of me when I sleep and I know my boys sleep a little rougher so they probably won't mind the lighter comforter.  It will be great for the summer months, just not very warm in the winter.  We'll just have to use extra blankets.
