This comforter is perfection! I love everything about it. I seriously have a hard time walking past my bed and not wanting to jump in. It is super soft and thick and cozy, but is not too heavy. I live in Arizona and it’s great for winter. It is exactly as pictured - the subtle texture adds such an expensive, luxurious feel. And don’t worry I have three dogs and they don’t impact it at all. I washed it right out of the package and it washed and dried (on low) easily. It did shed quite a bit in the lint trap just remember to empty it lol. You must buy this! I promise you will not be disappointed!
