LINENSPA White Down Alternative Comforter and Duvet Insert - All-Season Comforter with Box Stitch and 8 Duvet Loops - Bedding for Kids, Teens, and Adults - Queen

Hey everyone, Mike Jones here again with another quick and concise Amazon review.So up today we have the LINENSPA Reversible Down Alternative Quilted. I bought this item to go with a brand new 12" foam matress I purchased and I absolutely LOVE these sheets. They fit my queen bed perfectly, not too big that they sag over the edge but not so small that I cannot tuck the sides into my bed frame. The colors you see in the images are true to form and I love that the comforter is reversible. Both sides are a shade of gray, but it is nice being able to change it from a dark to a light gray whenever you want. The sheet is plush and warm but not very heavy which I like. It does hold heat in incredibly well and all I use is this comforter and a thin top sheet in the middle of winter and it is plenty warm. Sometimes I lay on top of the comforter because it is so soft but can still keep me warm. The only caveat to my love of this item is that it does seem to wrinkle easily. This is not a big deal but it is not as "wrinkle-free" as they would like you to believe. After I make my bed I spray a little 50/50 mix of Febreze and water and pull it tight and it does take out some of the wrinkles, but again, not a big deal at all. Overall, this item is amazing and because the price is so low I am giving it 5 stars. I would expect an item like this to cost upwards of $100.The pros: Soft, warm, reversible, nice pattern. This comforter really is, especially for the price, one of the best items on Amazon.The cons: The comforter is thin which some people don't like. I also have only had this for a few months so the longevity of the item is not determinable at this moment. I do have some reservations that it will last a long time, but at this price I can easily buy another one.The overall: This product hits a home run! It looks great and feels wonderful and for the price it cannot be beat. I WOULD buy this product again.I hope you enjoyed this quick review. [...] Thanks!_Mike Jones

Update on laundering:I now own three Linenspa comforters and I took two of them to the Laundromat. I washed one in the best comforter machine they had at $8.50. I washed it as detailed below. As I watched it barely moved. This was an amazing machine. Delicate means delicate! It came out perfectly. Like new. Follow the manufacturers instructions. Unfortunately I washed the second comforter in a newer machine next to the $8.50 machine. It was $7.00 and had all the same settings but my second comforter was thrashing around in there for the entire 40 minutes…even on the delicate-cold setting. It is certainly clean but slightly lumpy. I should have used the best machine. The standard huge dryers worked fine on low heat. I suggest that you open up the Queen or king once or twice so that it dries inside.So it’s been a year and I had to reorder this cloud soft warm soft comforter again for a Christmas treat. So no reason other than I had to have another one…As I had hoped, the previous purchased comforter and reviewed below (2/22) is holding up beautifully and I plan to wash it soon in the $8 comforter machine at the laundromat…that machine is huge, has no agitator, and is especially for large items like this. Wash on “delicate-cold water”. Their dryers are huge and they all have cool delicate settings. I use Method Free and Clear laundry detergent.The new comforter is lovely but quite a bit thinner than my original one. I notice that many reviewers complained that the comforters are too thick and too warm. Not for me. I am hoping that Linenspa offers a thick comforter like my original one to those folks in frigid climates and also to older folk who are just plain cold or to people who cannot afford to turn on the heat at night. My house temp at night is often 55. No heat. And the last two summers have been unseasonably frigid in CA.Other than that one “suggestion” as you can see in my photo, the new comforter is on top and quite lovely with beautiful workmanship …though wrinkled….with my fluffy one is under it. It is not warm enough to replace my old one but I’m so glad I have it. Linenspa deserves another five star review!Old review continues hereI have been looking for a new comforter for my bed for someone time now. It occurred to me that I owned a very nice microfiber comforter in my guestroom. It was made by linenspa. I looked at Amazon and they had the same comforter! I ordered the white and gray striped queen size for my bed. It arrived vacuum packed. I open the bag and threw it on the bed and that’s what you see in the pictures: no wrinkles whatsoever, fluffy soft and flawless & reversible. I might buy one more. I might buy two more, this is an amazing product. The manufacturer suggests washing it once every three years… well the one in my guest room hasn’t been washed in three years and it’s immaculate. I’ve been showing this picture to my friends and they’ve been guessing $300 and when I say no $39, they immediately order it Comes in several reversible colors with finished edges. I would never put a duvet over this. It’s stunning as is! It’s quite warm, but not too warm for our frigid 37° evenings with no heat on in my house I might even need a 2nd one, which is a great excuse to order another one. Maybe I’ll do that right now . ..thank you Linenspa and thank you Amazon!

I have come to the conclusion that people are extremely picky when it comes to comforters because I read reviews for so many and it would sound great, but then there would be a vocal minority complaining about how thin or cheap or wrinkly or whatever it was making it so hard to choose. This one has solid reviews and the brand was recommended on reddit so I went for it. The texture is nice and soft (my cat loved it right away). It poofed up immediately when I opened the package and seems nice and fluffy to me. If you are looking for a comforter that makes someone say "wow that's SOO fluffy!!" this might not be it, but for the average person, this is probably the comforter you are looking for. It's warm. The gray and black and nice-looking colors. It has some wrinkles but they aren't bad-looking. If you just want a normal but high-quality comforter, I expect you'll be happy with this one. Hope this saves you some time browsing Amazon.
