I've been happy with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1566898 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 08:33:43 +0000 alohaorchid 1566898@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a down alternative comforter. It was from Costco and cost around $200.. It's super comfortable. However, it's now almost 3 years old and needs to be replaced, it's gone a little flat. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1566873 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 08:26:16 +0000 snowjewelz 1566873@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a down comforter from Macys.

But we only use it in the winter. We use thinner quilts the rest of the year. It's quite warm! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1566654 Mon, 14 Apr 2014 06:36:36 +0000 looch 1566654@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>A down filled blanket, it's basically the same concept as a box quilted comforter, but much thinner and lighter. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1566368 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 20:52:31 +0000 Mae 1566368@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have an all season down comforter from BBB.

I love it and they always put them on really good sales. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1566052 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 18:22:54 +0000 septca 1566052@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a silk "down" comforter that my mil brought back from China (you can't buy them in the US). It's seriously the most amazing comforter I've ever had. </p> <p>But I highly recommend the LL Bean comforters. They come in different weights, and they have a great guarantee in case anything happens to it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1566017 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 17:36:23 +0000 lioneyes 1566017@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>company store down comforter in our duvet. they have them at different warmth levels. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1565919 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 15:19:53 +0000 sunny 1565919@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a down one from Macy's. It's charter club brand so it's not their highest end but it is still nice. I have washed it in my washing machine and it's fine.</p> <p>It doesn't leak feathers nearly as much as DH's old JCP down one. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1565895 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 14:50:35 +0000 mrs. bird 1565895@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>we have a down one from lands end, it's ugly- dark green on one side and light green on the other, but it's in a duvet, so it doesn't really matter. it's really hot though, so we only use it during the winter &amp; use another comforter the rest of the year </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1565886 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 14:43:21 +0000 Cole 1565886@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a down one from overstock that has held up really well but it is super warm. I need to get a new one that is lighter. I am happy with the one from overstock but I feel like other retailers might label better in terms of how warm they are. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1565870 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 14:35:39 +0000 jhd 1565870@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a comforter from ikea. It's actually a set of two that go together for winter but we find both layers too warm. We use the thinnest one most of the year and the thicker one in cold weather. It's not a down comforter...not sure what the filling is. It's machine washable though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1565858 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 14:25:20 +0000 Dandelion 1565858@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a down comforter from kohls that we got from stackibg discounts and coupons. Its nice but too warm for using year round so we have it put up for now in the closet. It leaks feathers pretty badly too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1565829 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 13:52:32 +0000 Foodnerd81 1565829@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@SleepyMonkey: Yeah the one we have now, which was cheap and from Overstock, has been leaking feathers for a while and has some spots that feel empty. </p> <p>I'm going to check LL Bean-- good idea. </p> <p>Anyone have one from West Elm? The duvet cover is from there so the size would match perfectly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1565823 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 13:49:27 +0000 SleepyMonkey 1565823@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Down alternative from LL Bean. I really like it. warm in the winter and not too hot in the summer. We used to have a real down comforter, i think it was from costco, but it leaked a lot of feathers every time we adjusted it. really annoying. and it got thin in some places. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1565821 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 13:48:18 +0000 JerricaBenton 1565821@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a down comforter that was actually mine before we moved in together. I think it was from llbean. It's super comfortable in warm and cold weather. I even wash it in the machine...you just have to make sure it dries 100percent so you don't get mold inside. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1565818 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 13:46:51 +0000 Greentea 1565818@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have a jcpenny down comforter that I have had since I was 18! I think it was $89... or $100 or something. It has the box seams.</p> <p>If I was going to get a new one I think I would look at l.l.bean. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-do-you-have-inside-your-duvet-cover#post-1565801 Sun, 13 Apr 2014 13:34:32 +0000 Foodnerd81 1565801@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Do you have a down comforter? "Down alternative"? Where did you get it? How pricey was it?</p> <p>We finally settled on a duvet set (seriously-- we bought a king size a full year ago and have been sleeping with our queen comforter and duvet!). My parents offered to get us the comforter for Christmas and I just need to pick it out. But I'm overwhelmed with options-- I just want a nice, but not super fancy or expensive, warm but not super warm, comforter. </p> <p>So, what do you have? Pros and cons to down vs down alternative? </p>
