I needed an extra comforter set to put on the bed when I wash the one on the bed I saw this one and really liked it the colors matched my room and I decided to order it. My bed is a queen but I ordered the California King size and it is big it is only a few inches from the floor on both sides no more tug-a-war for cover with hubby at night. It is lightweight and yet warm the colors are not to bright and it doesn't look too feminine we really like it. The only draw back is I will have to take it to the laundromat to wash it because it is too big for my washer and I don't want to rip it apart, I will see how it holds up in the wash.
