I was pleasantly surprised by this comforter. It has a higher then normal number of baffle boxes which adds to the luxurious feel. Much softer and thicker than I expected.  We ordered the taupe, which is more of a rich mink color. And what a bargain for the price! I will definitely be ordering a backup or two as this is a comforter that can be used year round. Looking forward to seeing how it withstands the rigors of the washing machine. Highly recommend.

Update: I took the comforter to the local laundromat for its first wash. Unfortunately, things did not go well. I used a full size, top load washer with agitator. The comforter barely fit inside and, at some point during the wash cycle, the agitator wore down the nap in several spots. If at all possible, wash in a large capacity front load washer. I will be ordering a new comforter soon.
