This will be a wee bit lengthy but i think a good, right on review for anyone taking time to read it. First, i got this 'quilt'. Second, Chezmoi Collection White Goose Down Comforter. Third, AmazonBasics printed, light weight flannel duvet cover. When i received this it was not as expected because it was 'stiffer' than i imagined a quilt to be and because it had a drab side. I don't think 'they' mention , or show , both sides. I 'enjoyed' sleeping under the quilt which i suggest you think of as more of a 'bed spread'. I have no complaints about quality but i haven't washed it. I was thinking of washing it to make it softer and less stiff but i may not wash this thing for a couple years because i'm single and don't see a reason to wash it unless i sweat under it which i don't think will happen because it's so 'airy' with ventilation when covered. This 'stiff' feature i'm now enjoying and never experienced before. Unlike the 'comforter and duvet' the this quilt doesn't 'hug' you and that's the reason i got the comforter then the duvet. I didn't intend this progression of purchases. The progression grew from the stiffness of this quilt. I have used this QUILT over the comforter / duvet and this combination is awesome. That flannel duvet and comforter are out of this world. With this QUILT on top i feel hugged. I never tuck my covers in at foot of bed and these can be arranged to snuggle you like your in the womb. But, i got to sweating now and then because this combo makes it warm, indeed. So, i'd take the duvet/comforter off and use this or visa versa. Summer has arrived and i'm going to use this alone. After looking at the 'drab' side i realize it's not 'drab' but opposite of 'vibrant' , more subdued , but a handsome , rustic look. It all depends on your taste and mood but it's nice to have two 'looks'. I have not washed it so i can't speak for anything that may happen post wash but mine is made wonderfully, looks great. Funny, i ordered a king quilt and a queen in the other combo and i have a queen mattress. I was going to return this but decided i love the way it looks draped over the bed. Now, i see many have spoken bad about the dimensions and i suggest you get with Amazon on this because i think you just were shipped the wrong size. My mattress is 12" THICK and is on a box spring held off the floor 14" (26" OFF THE FLOOR). With this Quilt pulled up to the top of the Queen mattress THE BOTTOM OF THIS QUILT HANGS 22" OVER THE BOTTOM OF THE BED TOUCHING THE FLOOR AT BOTH CORNERS. THIS QUILT HANGS 17" OVER BOTH SIDES OF THE MATTRESS. THUS, ON THE SIDES OF THE BED , THE QUILT IS 9" OFF THE FLOOR DRAPING 17" OVER THE SIDES. AT THE BASE OF THE BED THE QUILT IS 4" INCHES OFF THE FLOOR DRAPING 22" OVER THE SIDES AND , AMPLY , FLARES ON THE FLOOR. I was surprised at how far this thing hangs over the mattress and have lots and lots of room to pull the quilt high on the mattress. So, i suggest not to expect your regular thought of 'quilt' and slide into this with being open to something different. I do not think it's cheaply made but i have not washed it and don't have plans to do so for quite awhile. The big deal for me is the AIR under this quilt. This is not 'snuggle snuggle' around you quilt. It is thin , leaves plenty of air surrounding your body , very easy to move around in under this , almost feels like no weight on you. It has taken some time to get use to but, now, i love it. This keeps you warm once you lay there and your body heat fills the 'air pockets'. This is a new sensation in sleeping. Do not expect a thick snuggling quilt. Now, with the combination i purchased this is IDEAL with comfort, warmth, weight and snuggle factor that's heavenly. Their picture shows a quilt draped over the bed onto the ground and this will occur unless your mattress is not 27 inches off the floor. I just don't know what happened to the folks complaining this didn't drape enough other than to think they were shipped the wrong size. Mine is awesome over a Queen mattress, Queen comforter and duvet. That AmazonBasics flannel duvet it wowsa and the comforter is perfect for in the duvet. I would not get one without the other. So, get this if you want a 'nice bedspread' that serves as an airy light weight, just right weight quilt that looks as pictured lovely patches of hominess.
