What is the weight of this comforter? Looking for a extremely light-weight comforter, having no luck. Thanks!!

Oh this is not light weight. We use it for fall/winter/spring but I change it out for summer. Had luck at Home Goods for the lighter weight one.

I have to be honest, I use this comforter year round. We have central air and I like it to be chilly in the room & then cover up with more than a sheet or light blanket. Its not a heavy comforter like some are, you're laying there & the weight pushes your feet down to one side or the other. But again, I keep the room nice & cool year round, so I don't switch out to a bedspread in summer. Only if opening the windows do I kick off the bedspread lol.

This is not a summer comforter. I would agree with Kathleen Diehl & Patricia Fairchild, it's a spring, fall, winter (depending where you live) medium weight comforter. Thought for you, have you thought of just buying a light weight blanket and a pretty sheet to put on top for something lightweight? You might also try doing a Amazon search for "quilted bedspread" or for "bedspread coverlet". Coverlet being the key word. Or do a search for "Matelasse coverlet". Also if you do a search for "quilts", you will find most of them are lightweight. Comforters tend to be heavier and made more for cold weather months and something to snuggle in to keep warm.

It is probably a medium weight. However the fabric and looks of it are amazing. I love the beauty of it each day I make the bed.

It weighs very little. Not as heavy as a traditional blanket or comforter. It is just two thin sheets of the print you see with a liner inside of nylon. No weight or substance. It also does not keep you warm by any means. It is pretty That's All... the inside liner likes to bunch up as it is only held on by each corner ONLY.

The answer to your question will be subjective depending on the respondent. I do not find this comforter overly thin but I have had fluffier comforters. That said, the better measure for me is if the comforter tends to lose any of the fluffiness that it starts out with and I have used this comforter for 7 months and have not seen any reduction.

It is like the other comforters I have. Frankly I think there is a lot of confusion as to the difference. My chief concern was that it would fit my bed and it did not actually contain down. It does fit , it is warm, it has no down. After receiving it I bought another size and color.

If this comforter isn't quite like the hotel quality in terms of getting the most fluff, where do you buy the high end hotel quality down comforters? I'm not too concern about the warmth or how heavy it is, what I'm looking for is the fluff and softness of the material. I don't want the comforter to look flat on my bed and I wouldn't cover it up with a duvet cover. I like the white classic look, the point in getting this type of comforter is because of how it looks I wouldn't cover it up even though white is hard to take care of.

This is a comforter, it is very light and would be best for summer...no warmth value for winter :)

It's very lite in weight and soft ,I live in ohio and the winter night's as been very cold and had to use a blanket along with it to stay warm so it should be perfect for you even though it was not the comforter I wanted they sent it by mistake,never did get the comforter I wanted

If the sizes are the same but the prices are different I would purchase the lower priced one. I wish I had a better answer. That's what I would do. It an amazing comforter. You will really like it.

I don't like a heavy comforter or blanket over my feet, but this is very light weight. I live in NC and it is warm enough without making you sweat (which was my concern with a down comforter). I have been very happy with this purchase.

No it is very light which is one of the main reasons I love it. I am Diabetic and heavy covers cause pain in my lower legs and feet. Also I am hot natured so this comforter is perfect for hot or cold day's in NC. The fabric is ultra soft against my skin. I want to buy more of these comforters but don't know much about duvet's. You will love this comforter I am sure !!!

I did not weight it when it came through my door! Never even thought of it! As far as dimensions goes you can look up the actual comforter online and get the dimensions. All I can inform you of is that it fit my oversized California King Mattress just fine and it was not heavy (at least those are my "personal' thoughts and experience on the matter at hand. Good Luck!

Hi and congrats. This comforter is wonderful. First take it out and give it several real good shakes then give it two-three days. It will POOF up. Give it one more good shake and put on your bed. It will keep you nice and cozy. I love mine. Suzzie

Its very light, I don't think it even weights a pound. Breathability comes a much from the sheet and duvet cover; both of mine are 100% cotton.

It's fairly light weight. The problem is it's too hot with the down comforter for us. I had to remove by the 2nd week as all the buttons broke off and we were sweatting

It's not an extremely thick comforter, and relative to a down, it's pretty slim.I would think about this as more of a thick blanket thickness. For visual reference, the comforter just sitting on the bed, is around 2" thick. You would be able to squeez it thinner, or fluff it up, but that's about it.Hope that helps.

it is a nice weight--microfiber. Not packaged like sheets,a larger box sufficient for the size. Agree with DeVondia and Wendy---granddaughter LOVES her Doc Mc comforter!! Try it, you can always return it!!
