It was very comfortable. Every now and then a feather would literally poke through, which would cause a very minor sting when you'd roll over it, but it was not enough of an annoyance to get rid of it. It is very large and on the thicker side so your fitted sheets may have problems staying  down unless you have sheet straps for this kind of thing. Untimely, when we did get rid of it after wearing it down quite a bit, we rolled in up and it made a great dog bed for our pet!
