Soft, warm and not to thick. It's like laying on the softest material you can think of... but softer. It's not fluffy like a actual comforter but it does have some good weight. It's almost like a blanket/comforter. If you have a queen order the king since no bed skirt is included but this way it will completely cover your bed. Only down side is that the pillow/sham cases will be too big.
