Rest Haven All-Season Down Alternative Comforter, Queen, White

i'm in Florida and will use this June - November. then probably throw it away as it will cost more to wash and dry than it costs. a little bit 'shiny' looking on the silver side. I will use the dark grey side.

I have purchased other comforters a time or 2 within the last year and none of them were as full as this one. I was pleasantly surprised when I unpacked it and it expanded into full size. Not only is it full, it is very nice quality; smooth to the touch. It is dark gray on one side and light gray on the other. The blanket is lightweight but holds warmth. I honestly have nothing negative to say here except that it smells really bad when you unpack it, so wash it right away. It is vacuum sealed, so it must be something to do with that.

This comforter did shrink slightly (about one inch all around) when I washed it. But I think that is probably because it puffed up a lot after washing. It did make some of the filling come loose to where you can see it on the comforter. See picture for example. But it came right off with a lint brush. And this filling only did that when I washed it. The edge on this comforter is different than what I have seen before. It has binding around the edges and a little loop at each corner. I assume the loops are for decoration. Do not see any use for them. But overall it makes for a nice finished look to the comforter. This comforter has the three C's of comforters. It is Cozy. The material that it is made out of is very soft. And feels so nice on the skin. It is Comfy. It has just the right amount of filling to make it feel cushion-y and thick. And it is Cute. With the way that the comforter is sewn together, so that it looks like it has little blocks of puffy comforter, is really cute. And the fact that it is reversible is extra nice. You get two looks in one. Having a Down alternative Microfiber makes it nice. You do not have to worry about feathers coming out of it and going all over the place. The Microfiber is good at keeping you warm. But I did not feel like I was getting hotter than I wanted. I felt like it might be able to breath a little bit.

I've never used a comforter before. Have inherited good blankets and have a colorful bed spread, so this is a new experience. Even though it's currently hot in California, I put it on my bed. It's pleasantly lighter weight than using one or more blankets. On a summer night, I got way too warm under it, so I know it works. There are many more cold nights than warm ones here in my valley, so I look forward to having it in the winter. I never use the furnace at night (save energy). I got the twin size, and it fits on my XL deep mattress perfectly. It is dual color as desired – either navy blue or grey (“graphite”). I like the dark blue side. I prefer the idea of down alternative rather than real down, especially since it seems to work so well. I haven't given too much thought to bedding, but this product has genuinely caused a mind shift. I will always use a comforter on my bed from now on, a nice inexpensive luxury.

This Rest Haven Down Alternative Microfiber Comforter is so soft and very light weight. I didn't know if it was going to be as soft as it was because I always think microfiber is stiff and itchy. Well I was wrong and it's wonderful. I like that it's light in weight and it does actually keep you cool and not to hot under it when your sleeping. Also I like that you can have either side facing up for a different look. This comfortable is hypoallergenic material so that's a plus and it won't bother people. The design is well made and it's stitched very well, made to last for a long time. It didn't come with washing instructions so I looked online and it's machine washable. The colors of this blanket are very nice and goes great with my white bed sheets. I honestly didn't think it was that big when I first opened the box, it was air tight and after I opened it, it fluffed right up and has stayed very soft. This is great for anyone that is allergic to all those other materials out there with this one being hypoallergenic material.

I had originally intended to give this comforter to my daughter. But when it arrived, the instant I opened the package and got my hands on it, I knew immediately that I wanted this for myself. This is a down alternative microfiber comforter by Rest Haven. For anyone who doesn't have experience with down, it's surprisingly soft and remarkably comfortable. Down is basically a type of very soft and fine feather from certain types of birds or very young birds. The main problem with down is that, at least some types of down, it still has the central shaft the soft down is attached to. Meaning that depending on each individual feather and the fabric of the comforter, you can get those little shafts poking out of the fabric and poking and scratching you as you're covered by the comforter. Down comforters are expensive and highly sought after due to the difficulty in producing them and how incredibly comfortable they are. But modern sensibilities has a lot of people wanting a replacement for down that's not an animal product. Instead of real down, you have a synthetic filler that is nearly as soft. Instead of a very high stitch count fabric, you get a microfiber fabric. These two features allow Rest Haven to produce an extremely plush comforter that rivals the comfort of a high quality, real down comforter, for a very reasonable price. At first glance, it looks like it's going to be comfortable, but it wasn't until I got my hands on it that I realized just how surprisingly soft this comforter is. The micro fiber cloth gives it a smooth and cool feel against your skin. The internal padding, in the thinner outer sections of the comforter, doesn't feel much different than standard padding. But in the main area of the comforter, where the padding is thicker, it's very soft and comfortable. The padding doesn't compress like your standard padding would, giving it a softer feel instead of a hard lump once weight is put on it. The size I got was a Full, but it was just large enough to fit on my Queen size bed, although it doesn't hang over the sides much. Overall, I really like this comforter and especially for the price. I have been using the same blanket for a number of years, but I have finally found something that I like better. Now this is going to be my comforter of choice this winter. One of the great features about this comforter is it's machine washable and comes with a 3 year warranty. I was really impressed by the quality, comfort, and value of this comforter. I can't give it any less than 5 stars.

I got the twin size. It came in a vacuum sealed bag and was really drawn down tight. I feared that after getting it out of the bag it would be compressed in spots and may never actually come back to full size or fluffiness, but it did. From past experiences with similar items, I also thought it might have a smell to it and left it to air out for a few days before use. But, it never really had an odor to begin with. This is very lightweight but also quite warm. As you can see, it's white. Unlike some of the other reviewers I did not see any spots/stains or anything else on the fabric. The color is quite consistent throughout. Also, there was no evidence of any loose fibers or tufts of material anywhere. The stitching all seems sound and looks like it is well made. The fit is spot on. So far, it's all good, very soft and just about what I was looking for in a comforter.

Even straight out of the package this comforter started impressing me! I opened up the shrink wrapping, and it puffed out much bigger than in packaging. The wrinkles came out easily as well after being placed on the bed. It's so very soft and comfortable! I'm very pleased with this comforter! It will keep me nice and warm on winter nights, but it's just the right amount of warmth because I won't sweat to death in the summer in Texas either! It's not too heavy and is still breathable in the heat. It is machine washable which is always a plus in bedding comforters, as it's not too often you don't have to dry clean something like this. It's very attractive looking as well, the navy color is so pretty and the gray side is pretty as well. I'm really happy with this comforter and this Rest Haven brand. I'm a new fan and I would highly recommend this comforter! It's one of the softest ones I've ever used- in all seriousness. The price is fanatic for the quality- which will last for years and years to come. The one I had is queen, for reference. Goes well with dark colored furniture- also as pictured! Five stars!!

The Rest Haven down alternative comforter is made of 100% polyester. The micro fiber filling is very light and not too thick, only about two and one-half pounds. Because this comforter is not made from real down, it is hypoallergenic. I like the box style stitching on this comforter, because it helps to keep the filling from getting lumpy or shifting around after washing. Each square is about ten inches x ten inches in size. I did not see any loose threads, uneven stitches or missed stitching around the edges. I did however notice upon close inspection that the piping around the edge was thicker in some places and thin in others, I am not sure why. This twin-sized comforter is 68 x 86 inches and is machine washable in cold to hot water and tumble dry on low temperature, according to the instructions. Do not iron on medium, do not bleach and do not dry clean. The color is light gray on one side and darker gray on the other. There are eight loops on the edges of the comforter so that it can be used with a duvet cover if desired. It is well made and has a three-year U.S. warranty against manufacturer defects. It is a soft comforter and not at all scratchy or stiff. That is important since it is very light and is great to wrap around you while watching television on the sofa, not just to lay it flat on the bed.

Nice comforter. However it does “snag” in certain spots but it's not a big deal. I purchased the oversized king for my king size bed. I have box spring on platform bed and my concern was you would still see box spring. That is not the case with this size. Overall satisfied with price, look and material.
