[ARCHIVED THREAD] - High quality bed spread? (Page 1 of 2)

Wife and I have had the same comforter for a million years and it's been awesome, but it's about time for a new one. The thing is, we've bought about 4 from various box stores all around, and they are all worthless shit. They come apart within weeks. Someone, for the love of god, please point me toward a high quality bed spread or bed set that will last a few years. I don't care about price. |
| You want a light goose-down filled one. I sleep hot so can't stand piles of cover, we use ours year round, in the really cold months (Jan/Feb,) we add a light fleece blanket. We bought ours from Amazon, was about $150 (king,) but don't ask me the name. It was one of the 4 star ranked items, Pacific something. |

I got a cheaper one at BB&B it's held up great for two years and even goes car camping 
The ones from Eddie Bauer have great reviews, but they are expensive. |

I know, that doesn't help you at all. I'm OK with that.

Ever sleep on a bed spread or sheet at a nice hotel and wish you could have the same thing? This is probably where they got it:
Downlite |

Quoted:
Ikea sells the Euro style comforter/slipcovers The down filled comforter has removable covers with buttons. The slip covers can be washed, replaced, or changed whenever needed. ETA: I think its called Duvet Cover I got mine at Target. Simple walmart fiberfill comforter in a fancy, bleachable cotton cover. |

I'm the same with bedding, but she loves soft and squishy. |

These beaver blankets look nice.

Quoted: These beaver blankets look nice. http://www.adirondackblankets.com/default.aspx Free shipping too. There's already enough beaver in our bed though. I'm afraid anything made from animal fur will be consumed by our 200#s of dogs. |

Quoted: We've bought a few sets at Cabellas - which are initially really nice but wear out after 2 years. We've also bought a few down comforters from Overstock.com - 12 years ago and they are still going strong. |
