Egyptian Bedding Goose – Editor’s Choice #1

Finding a comforter that is soft and inviting is not always as easy as it may sound, but if you know what to look for, the task becomes a lot simpler.

If you are in search of a comforter that maintains the ideal balance between softness, fluffiness, and comfort, then the Egyptian Bedding goose down comforter might be exactly what you have been looking for.

Made with a 100% Egyptian cotton cover and 1200 thread count for unbeatable softness, this comforter may be the best example of comfort.

This comforter is ultimate luxury, keeping me warm and toasty all night long. Sufficiently fluffy and soft, it feels like falling asleep inside a warm cloud. Finally, edged with a thick golden threading, this comforter looks as magnificent as it feels.

Here are some qualities that I loved

But nothing is perfect

Conclusion

This comforter cannot be highly recommended enough. It looks beautiful on a bed of any size and keeps you feeling warm and cozy under its light weight all night long. It’s the perfect softness to snuggle up with and doze off into every night.

Royal Hotel Dobby

This comforter is certainly one to consider. An affordable option that gives you a lot to love, this luxurious comforter is available in all the most common sizes and checks off all the most important boxes many of us look for when determining a comforter’s quality.

With the soft, 100% cotton material, the Royal Hotel dobby down comforter has the perfect amount of fluffiness to make you feel right at home.

If you’re looking for the ideal balance between price and quality, you might have found your match here.

These were my favorite things about it

What could use a little work

Conclusion

Anyone looking for a comforter on the more affordable side will find that there is plenty to love about this option – and once it is out of its packaging and has had a full day or two to completely expand, there is plenty of it to love. It’s soft, warm, lightweight, and most importantly, comfortable.

However, there are other comforters in the same inexpensive price range with just as much value, even with a higher thread count than 300. If you are concerned about the softness of your comforter, which is closely correlated with the thread count, then you might want to keep looking for something more in the 800+ thread count range.

Pacific Coast Striped Pyrénées Luxury

Made with 100% Egyptian cotton and boasting a 500 thread count, this comforter is certainly one that anyone searching for their excellent comforter should stop to consider.

While it may not be the highest thread count available, it makes up for it by being made from Egyptian cotton and with its 650 fill power.

The comfort lock border on the comforter keeps the down in place and the entire comforter in shape. Pacific Coast backs their product with a 10-year limited warranty to prove their confidence in their product – and with good reason.

Every night sleeping with this comforter made me feel like I was floating. I felt like I was drowning in softness and luxury in this well-constructed product, all without feeling like the weight of the comforter was overbearing.

The highlights

Some things could use improvement

Conclusion

This is a truly incredible comforter, and if you choose to purchase it, you likely will not be disappointed. The oversized dimensions make it feel like a huge, lavish spread, which is a rare quality in such comforters.

I could not get enough of this comforter, but it would have been the perfect option if it had only been a bit softer. Depending on what your preferences are, you may want to look for something with a bit of a higher thread count.

Egyptian Bedding Siberian Goose – Editor’s Choice #2

Egyptian Bedding blows it out of the water again with the Siberian goose down comforter.

This product is another comforter boasting a whopping 1200 thread count and 100% Egyptian cotton.

The silky-smooth perfection of this option is unparalleled.

If you have been looking for a comforter that accomplishes absolutely everything without breaking the bank, this just might be the end of your search.

What I loved

What I could do without

Conclusion

This comforter is extremely soft, plush, warm, and sturdy. This is certainly one of the best down comforters I tried – if you are not terribly concerned about finding a lightweight comforter that is not too warm, then you may have found your comforter match made in heaven here.

Pacific Coast European

I can’t get enough of these 100% Egyptian cotton comforters! Another incredible-feeling poofy comforter that feels like falling asleep inside a gentle cloud, the Pacific Coast European down comforter has its own unique distinguishing factors that set it apart from the others on the market.

Easy to care for with low-maintenance upkeep requirements, not to mention being constructed from supreme quality materials, this comforter is certainly worth looking at. Anyone searching for something soft and cozy that requires minimal upkeep should give this one a chance.

I also loved the fact that this comforter was made in the United States. If you are someone that prefers to support US companies, then that’s something you will want to take note of that makes this comforter a unique product.

The fact that this option comes with a warranty from the manufacturer shows their confidence in their product. From the moment I received it, I could tell this was a high-quality comforter, and the 10-year limited manufacturer’s warranty only further backs that.

What they’re doing right

There’s always room for improvement

Conclusion

This is a great comforter from a company that clearly takes pride in the products they create and will stand behind them. What impresses me about the comforter is not the advertised “exceptional and rare Pyrenees Down from the renowned Pyrenees Mountain region of France”, but rather, the astonishing performance of the product.

Nothing is better, in my opinion, than a comforter that can keep you warm in the cold months without making you wake up sweating when it’s warmer outside. I certainly recommend giving this comforter a try if it sounds like the one for you.

Egyptian Bedding Hungarian Goose

Egyptian Bedding does it again with their Hungarian goose down comforter! So many of Egyptian Bedding’s products have made the cut for the top 10 selection because they seem to never fail to deliver.

This comforter has its own unique points to consider, setting it apart from the other comforters coming from the same manufacturer. It’s a warmer comforter, so it’s not ideal for those who like to enjoy cooler temperatures while they sleep – but if you’re someone who likes to snuggle up in the heat of their blankets, then this comforter might be what you’ve been looking for.

However, of all Egyptian Bedding’s products, this one certainly is not my favorite. While I still have plenty of good things to say about the premium thread count, 100% Egyptian cotton, baffled design, and supreme fluffiness, this one is not in the same realm as some of the others I have reviewed.

Of all the comforters I tried, this one was among the worst I have reviewed as far as feather leakage goes. While it does help me get a good night’s sleep, I need the extra energy to sweep my floor every morning after making my bed.

That being said, this comforter is also among the best I have reviewed in terms of fill power. At 750, there’s little room for debate – this is a fluffy comforter.

It’s reasonable to say that the higher fill power may contribute in some way to the excessive feather spillage, but after sleeping in this mass of coziness, I can say it’s almost worth it.

Put your hands together for

What could have been better

Conclusion

This is yet another great product from Egyptian Bedding, but certainly not their best work. While it has very high fill power and you can certainly enjoy the benefits of that with this product, there are some drawbacks.

That, paired with the fact that this comforter does not come with as high as a thread count as the other Egyptian Bedding options makes it one of my lesser favorite options. Don’t get me wrong though – it’s a great product, it just wasn’t at the top of my list.

Pinzon Hypoallergenic White Goose

Pinzon certainly knows comforters, and their hypoallergenic white goose down comforter proves it. I loved finding sanctuary in the soft pillows of its baffle construction and thick fluff.

If you suffer from allergies or are looking for something that will shield you from the wind on cold winter nights, then this comforter might be the one that ends your search.

It kept me supremely warm all night long, comfortably cocooned in its plush softness.

My favorite features

Where they went wrong

Conclusion

Overall, this is not a bad comforter at all. It is comfortable and warm throughout the night, which kept me feeling cozy and content. If price is not an object for you, then you might find this comforter to be the perfect match – if you’re shopping on a budget, however, it’s good to note that there are plenty of great comforter options in a cheaper price range as well.

Eddie Bauer White Goose

I can’t deny that this Eddie Bauer comforter is cozy and comfortable, and with so many great features that it offers, it’s certainly a wonderful product in my opinion. There are several things about this comforter that set it apart from many of the other top comforter options I reviewed that I feel are certainly worth looking at.

This comforter offers convenience by being machine washable and dryable, it’s assembled in the USA, and it comes with the incredible oversized dimensions that I love – they look great draped over the edge of my bed, and they give me so much more comforter to snuggle into in the middle of the night.

There are a few drawbacks, like it not being as soft as I would have liked and the fact that it’s not suited for the coldest climates, but depending on your preferences, those might end up being the types of qualities you will love in a comforter.

Here’s what I couldn’t get enough of

Still some things I could do without

Conclusion

There are a lot of good things to say about this comforter. Although there were a few downsides, one of the biggest for me was that it didn’t keep me warm enough on the coldest nights – however, if you’re a hot sleeper or if you live in a place where it doesn’t get extremely cold, then what was a drawback in my book could be a huge advantage in yours!

Overall, this comforter was great and I have very few bad things to say about it. Unless you’re extremely concerned about low temperatures where you live, then this just might be the comforter that ends your search!

Puredown White Goose

The Puredown white goose down comforter was certainly a pleasant surprise for me. The luxury white goose down supplies medium warmth and plenty of comfort.

The 600 fill power results in a 37 oz filling, and the cover is made from leak-proof 100% cotton with 500 thread count and a sateen striped weave.

The leak-proof cover is certainly a nice addition to the comforter because it prevents your bedroom from looking like a gaggle of geese is taking refuge in your home.

Another comforter with baffle box construction, I am confident that the down in this comforter will remain in place long-term. The added satin piping with four corner tabs anchors the duvet cover and gives it a nice, elegant look – paired with the classic stripe pattern, this should be able to match any room’s decor.

I truly think this is a comforter that is well-suited for all seasons. As it is not too heavy or overly warm, it doesn’t cling to heat and leave you sweating in the summer in the middle of the night and at the same time, it is insulated enough to keep you warm when the air outside is too frigid to handle.

The best

The worst

Conclusion

This is a decent comforter that is certainly worth considering if you are looking for something reasonably soft and comfortable. After trying several the more luxurious comforters, I can certainly say that this one is a mid-range product by comparison – but still plenty plush and comfy to get you through the night.

Royal Bedding Down Comforter

Royal Bedding’s down comforter makes the list of the top 10 comforters 2017 because there is a lot to be said for its quality and features.

While it may not have been my favorite comforter for those I reviewed, the benefits were substantial enough to give this comforter its rightful place in the top 10 list.

An ideal comforter for those looking for a balanced comforter with a lot of fluff. Although the thread count lands in the mid-range category, it is still soft enough that I can’t help but snuggle with it.

The comforter is stuffed with 90% down and 10% small down feather. A decent mix, the comforter feels as huggable as ever and is a great way for me to be lulled into a sound sleep all night long.

The price was a bit on the higher side, especially compared to some of the cheaper comforters I reviewed and even liked much more than this one. Still, I can recognize that this comforter is of good quality and comes at an affordable price.

Here’s what I loved

Here’s what could be improved

Conclusion

This is not a bad comforter, and I certainly think it is a good buy. For those looking for a comforter with utmost fluffiness being among their highest priorities, you might find that this comforter is your absolute favorite.

Is your sleep suffering from not having the right comforter for you? You’re not alone.

Finding a comforter that you are 100% satisfied with isn’t easy for anyone. Whether your current comforter is making you feel suffocated in heat, or is so heavy that you feel like you’re drowning beneath it, I’ve got your back.

There are a lot of common problems people run into with comforters, and I’ve likely seen or experienced them all – and found the best solutions.

Why You Need to Find Your Ideal Comforter

A good night’s sleep has a lot to do with how healthy you are, and having the right comforter to get you through the night seamlessly can go a long way to contributing to a deeper sleep. Don’t spend any more time feeling bleary-eyed on your morning commute to work or telling your friends you need to go home early this weekend because you’re just too tired.

With my help, you can find the right comforter for your unique sleeping habits that will promote a deep and healthy sleep all night long.

Not All Comforters are Made Equal

The right comforter for you might not necessarily be the right comforter for someone else. Different people need to look for different things in a comforter depending on their own unique preferences and sleep habits.

When choosing the comforter that is best for you, there are several factors you’ll need to look at, such as fill power, weight, thread count, and more. But more on that later.

There are plenty of incredible comforters available on the market, but finding the right one can still be an incredible challenge if you aren’t well-informed. Once you know your specific preferences and what will work best for your night-time routine, however, the rest becomes easy.

Finding Your Comforter Made in Heaven

With options all over the spectrum, rest assured that the comforter of your dreams is out there. But just thinking about all the research you might need to do to find the ideal product is enough to give you a headache.

Fortunately, I’ve done the research part for you. All you need to do is decide on all the qualities you are looking for and make a list of priorities.

Once you’ve settled on what’s most important to you in your ideal comforter, decide on a price range and read all my down comforter reviews in the range you can afford. From there, you will be able to find one that matches perfectly with your needs.

The right choice will be obvious, sporting just the right price, style, and features combination. I promise, the comforter for you is out there – you just need to find it.

Popular Terms to Look Out For

If you don’t have experience in the industry, then you probably don’t know a lot of the terms commonly used to describe comforters. In fact, trying to read about them might feel like trying to decipher a language you’ve never heard before.

Fortunately, I’ve compiled a handy guide here to serve as your translator during your journey to finding the perfect comforter for your home.

• Baffle Box Construction: Baffle construction is a term that refers to comforters that have individual squares stitched into the comforter, creating vertical interior walls stuffed with the down inside. As a result, this prevents the down from shifting over time – so, there’s no need to fear ending up with one half of your comforter being lumpy and overstuffed while the other is flatter than a pancake.
• Down: Comforters are filled with an insulating material such as cotton, silk, wool, polyester, or down. Often from geese, but other birds are used as well, down is a bird’s soft feathers found under their tougher exterior feathers.
• Egyptian Cotton: As you might expect, Egyptian cotton comes from Egypt – specifically the species Gossypium Barbadense, which produces longer fibers than all other types of cotton. Their longer fibers mean more strength and, hence, durability – but the material is also softer and able to yield a higher thread count fabric than other types of cotton.
• Fill Power: Referring to the loft or fluffiness of a down product such as a comforter, fill power is loosely relating to the down’s insulating power. The higher the number is representing fill power, the more air can be trapped by an ounce of the down within – resulting in greater insulating ability and warmth.
• Hypoallergenic: Some comforters are designed to be hypoallergenic, and are thus safe to be used by those who are sensitive to allergens. There’s nothing fun about using a comforter that makes you wake up in uncontrollable sneezing fits in the middle of the night with watery eyes, so if you’re sensitive to allergens, then you will want to make sure that any comforter you buy is hypoallergenic.
• Side Gusset: A side gusset is a sewn finish that is used to increase the durability of bedding. Rather than stitching the top and bottom together, the side panel around the border helps the comforter to be as thick as possible and distribute the warmth evenly throughout the comforter, as well as increasing its durability.
• Thread Count: If you are someone who pays specific attention to how soft your comforter is, then thread count is something you will want to pay special attention to. The higher the thread count is of the comforter, the softer the material is as a result.
• Oversize Dimensions: There are standard dimensions for all the different bed sizes available, and this goes for comforters as well. With oversize dimensions, however, the manufacturer intentionally produces a larger comforter to allow the blanket to fall luxuriously over the sides of the bed and provide plenty of comforter to snuggle up with.

Price Ranges and Features

The comforters you look at tend to fall into three distinct classifications.

Most of the comforters I have reviewed tend to fall in the mid to luxury range, and I found what I believe are truly some incredible gems. To help you find your perfect comforter, decide on what your priorities are – and your price range – and determine whether you think an economy, mid-range, or luxury comforter is right for you.

Then, all that is left is to begin your search and buy your perfect comforter.
