I had a similar comforter from a high-end department store, and I needed a new one. I was buying a bed on this site anyways, so I decided to throw in a comforter, hoping it would be comparable to the quality of my old one. This one is EVEN better, and for a third of what I paid before! It's got a soft, microfiber-esque feel to it, so it's cozy. It's got a good warmth to it, without feeling too stifling. I love it!
