This is the only item I have ever ordered from Wayfair in which I was disappointed.  In my experiences, matelasse is a little heavier - yet thin - providing a comforting weight for sleeping.  This one is very light, and I believe many would add a quilt to the bottom of the bed - not only for decoration but also to provide that comforting weight for sleeping.  Honestly, I did not find the picture online to be at all reflective of the item I received.  I ordered the full size but put it on a queen bed.  While it was short on the sides of the queen mattress (to be expected), there was substantial overhang on the length (not expected).  I found that odd?
