This comforter is light weight and very confortable. Add a blanket and perfect for winter too. You'll love it...!

It is perfect for me, because I like the how light it is, but yet it keeps me nice and warm. My old down alternative comforter was very heavy and I bought it in the dead of winter a few years ago, thinking I needed it. And it was a bit too warm even for me , and I do run cold and have cold feet. This one is just perfect for me and I am thinking of purchasing one for my son too. He gets too hot even in winter from his down alternative comforter. Hope this was helpful AVIVA K. And good luck to you.

Yes my husband says he gets a little cold from the fan. He will either put socks on or put a pillow down at the foot of the bed. Hope this helps!

The down has not come out of my comforter at all, but I have not washed it and don't plan to. When it needs it, I will have it cleaned. But the cover fabric is a tight weave and I can't imagine anything coming through. I love this comforter, but is very warm so I only use it during the coldest months of the winter.

I get really hot when I sleep too and I sweat under this comfort but not as bad as I did when we had a heavier one. Hope this helps.

I don't think it would be effective. In fact, I would look into washing your comforter. Every down comforter I have owned can be washed.

Julian, I purchased this comforter a month ago and if you are looking for something breathable this is the one to get! Not too heavy or hot at all. Very well made. You will be happy with it! Might I also suggest you look at getting bamboo sheets. After much research, we also purchased this at the same time and I could not be happier with the quality and results. The sheets feel like satin and keep us cool all night. Apparently they have a wicking property that lets heat escape. Still haven't found a pillow that actually works yet in keeping my head from getting too hot. (I've tried them all!)

I would say yes, it's warmer than my plain mattress, but not excessively so. In comparison, I once had a down topper and found that it was far too hot, whereas I could use this topper year round with lighter blankets when needed. I have still found it extremely comfortable, but someone who is very warm-natured might feel differently.

I wish I could say for sure. I've heard that it does. I have the same problem you have, getting too hot at night. I had to get one of these to repay someone in the family for accidentally washing theirs'. Do your research on them, This particular one is for a bit warmer weather anyway. You probably would want one that is for summer. Maybe someone else could be of more help. I sleep with a sheet and if needed a very lightweight down throw. I'm shorter and don't need the length. Sometimes I have to place a fan at the foot of the bed even in the winter to stay cool. I will say that if someone gave me this comforter I would put a lightweight duvet on it and give it a try! Good luck and be blessed! ;-)

Yes. We live in the pacific NW and my son uses this in a downstairs bedroom where it's cool. We needed to purchase him a blanket that is not Down. He loves it. However, if you are not allergic to Down feathers and you want something warm I'd recommend Down comforters.

This is not a lightweight comforter. I have the same problem of getting hot too easily and I do not have it on my bed this summer.

It is very lightweight and lofty. But we also had to retire it because it is too warm. We purchased a cooler down comforter at Ikea instead. Recently we used this one for camping in 30 degree weather and it was perfect! This will give you an idea of how toasty it is.

No, it is too hot for this spring/summer weather. I remove it from the bed at night as it is just too hot.

We have a heavy down comforter we use in winter instead of this. Also, it's not machine washable, the label says it should be professionally laundered.

The cover makes what was unbearable, bearable. If you had used a comforter on your old mattress, it will make the Tempurpedic too warm even with the cover. You need to use a thinner blanket along with the cover.

I usually put it on high to start with & lower the temp when I get in bed. It is plenty warm when I get in bed..........but I couldn't say if it was "HOT" or not. I always turn it down. It is of extremely good quality. So very hard for me to answer.

It's hard to say if it will be too hot for you because I don't know what the ambient temperature you want it for. It definitely is lighter and cooler than my lightweight genuine down duvet.

I had a super puffy goose down mattress cover on mine and I did not overheat. (But I did return it because it was so hard.)
